The river that is life!

As a nation, or as a culture, do we all think it's taboo to seek help to get ahead in this wonderful journey called LIFE?! I would think so.

It’s also a mindset that a happy life is one without any challenges and problems! Day in & out, almost all of us are in search of that that elusive state, where life is devoid of any problems, challenges, and adversities…

Now for an analogy if it helps...The river which finds is birth in some mountain top flows, meandering through every form of land – a peak and a valley, a hill or a fall etc – and changes courses naturally with one goal – to gather more strength and power as it finds it way – rather makes it way to the mighty ocean…. all along its path, it keeps adding immense utility value for the folks who come to its touch-points!

How stale and uninteresting would it be if the river was born atop a mountain, and from there, it came in as one ‘straight line’ to the coast, to quietly get itself into the ocean? Leave alone how it would be, the fact remains that such a river will never ever come into existence!

Reason – it is completely out of nature’s way to have such a straight, and what you would think as problem-less river to ever come into existence. Its elusive. Its unreal. It can be only in fiction!

So are our lives and the wonderful journey we make in this world! A Life, sans any adversity and challenge, climb and pitfall, joy and sorrow, with all of it in a judicious mix is just not Life. Its against the universal laws of nature to be so.

Thats why this is such a wonderful journey, and all we need to do is to live it to the fullest, taking all challenges head-on, getting into our personal quality armor tonnes of life lessons, and getting better by the day, by the hour.

That way, it is certain that our lives will be full of “LIFE”.

Accept this truth in this wonderful journey of Life… and move ahead... lets the best come by your way!
