Some Answers........

Monday, December 19, 2011 3 comments
Today after a very long time I got a letter, a beautiful handwritten one.  Imagine the thrill of receiving a letter in times like this, miss those early days, when life was simpler and we could even do without the cell phones in hand. This letter, reminded me a lot of things , a whirlpool of thoughts barging in from all the areas of life, but more profoundly what I thought interesting , was it reminded me of something that we all do, every person does...is look for some validation, some justification and more importantly for some answers. We look for answers...isn't it?

Every moment of our lives, we are searching and finding answers. Wanting to find respite in our everyday lives, some answers come early, some answers take time, some are already on their way towards us, a knock on the door is enough for us to know the answer has been delivered. The Expectations sky rocket, the waiting is too much to bear, yet we keep on looking  around for the answers. At least a clue or a sign is good enough, to calm our hearts. So does the answer come....Yes it does....it comes to us in many ways, it gets delivered but we are so glued to looking for that one answer that we tend to miss, overlook what has been delivered at the moment. So are we open to acknowledge the answer, irrespective whether the answer delivered is in sync with what we expected it to be. 

The issue usually starts when the answer is not in sync with what we expected for a long time......it rattles our heads .... how long is long enough, was our wait justified, was it all worth, so much effort and yet this outcome. This is unnerving, the mind desperately starts searching for answers, to make sense of all that is in the front. It's at this moment, the mind starts looking for a scapegoat, something to be pointed at,  it goes to the level of justifying something that is frivolous in the first place. The signs were already given to us a long time ago, it's when we fail to notice the sign, that's when the issue starts creeping in. For a moment, look at the answer, exactly the way it has been delivered. And in that moment we will realize that the answer was meant to be the way it was delivered to us , nothing more or less.  Perfect the way it is... the answer was inevitable, the more we accept it at face value, the better it is for us to find an appropriate solution. I know most of the time its difficult to digest, but we still have to...It's like the child, wanting a specific toy or an ice cream , nothing seems to pacify.

The answers, when we look deeply , we will notice.....that all along we knew the answer, but somehow we were not willing to accept the outcome, accept the inevitable. Now that the inevitable has been delivered, what next.......the same answer guide us to a new change, a new life, that is waiting to be explored. An answer can change our life in an instant, it's what we do with that change that happens in our life, is what matters in the end. It's never the end of anything in life, it's only a step towards finding a new meaning, a new way, a new outlook to what has been delivered at our doorstep through the means of an answer.

Life is full of surprises and some answers are inevitable, simply take them with a pinch of salt..

What is it dear.....

........ that you are still looking for, still searching for, still holding yourself back to make that decision, trying to find the right answer. Every want,every desire, every wish, every intention gets granted or gets done.And yes...it does follow suit and  most of the time, our prayers do get answered. It's all in the perceptions, it's how we perceive things in our life. It's still a perfect world with all the imperfections. Isn't it so!.

Even the five fingers of our hands are not similar, but yet they are in sync with each other..that's how it is . And yet most of the time our mind put's us in a dilemma cause we want to have the perfect solution, the perfect answer.  But do we really find the answers that we are looking for.  Some answers come easily and some answers take time and some don't even see the light of the day. The mind tries to find logic behind every aspect of life. Life comes to a standstill for many of us....when we expect life to be in a certain way, when we expect approval, and when we see the reality is different than what we perceived it to be, we get disappointed. We keep on asking everyone and every one has a different answer to give, based on their own understanding and also what they feel would be appropriate for us.

 .....STOP! wait a minute....just think....what about what you think, what is it that makes you happy, what is it that makes you feel good about your life....When will you start taking decisions or doing things that really matter to you...irrespective of whether you get the approval or not. What about your views, what about your feelings. Or does your views don't matter. Think about it...your views are equally important than what others think about you. Cause you are the one, who will define yourself. This is the time.....nothing is out there , it's all there in you...to make it work....but based on your decision...not on  what others say, the others can help...but it's finally your life, you got be happy eventually in the end. You got to find your own space and be happy wherever you are, then the world is just perfect the way it is and it has always been perfect.

...Try to find the balance, and the answers are right there, its for you to decide whether which goal, which dream, which relationship is worth keeping cause that's where  the answers lies....it's never out there, its always within you....
