The Pursuit of What?
M-E-A-N-I-N-G
Our whole life can be summed up in this 7 letter word. How much tenor it holds only we know. Or people who ponder over life's many happenings. Ever wondered what life would be without this noun?! Ever wondered what we would all end up like or where the closure would lie? Too many questions will emanate as we think about life.
So why is meaning to our very existence a paramount ingredient? A meaning? Yes a meaning. A reason. An answer to every question. To seek.To find. To ask. To get.
It is intriguing to me how some people go into eternal hibernation after failing this quest. Some people draw miserable conclusions. Some find joy. Some continue the adventure...
The other day I was walking down my lane, sucking in some not-so-fresh air, trying to look all relaxed, humming a song in my mind, thinking of things I may or may not achieve in life. A hundred thoughts crossed my mind. I started thinking deeper. Wider. Harder.
A walk which was intended to loosen myself turned into a horrible mood swing. I took a rickshaw back home. Alas.! What damage over-thinking can do to you.!! What I realized : I was trying too hard. Too hard. That I even curbed my mind of its freedom to think peacefully. I channeled it towards what I wanted it to think. I dint let my mind do its job.
So do we think too much and succeed at finding some meaning?
Honestly, NO.
So what do we do to prevail this pursuit of finding life's juice? Stop thinking.!
Yes that.!!! As simple as this may sound, let me tell you my friend, a known mystery. :
"The more we stop caring, the more life shows you. The harder we try the harder our luck gets".Just let it be. Go with the flow of things. Life shows you the beauty in it when you least expect it and when you let it be. Its amazing how things unfold so symmetrically in the most unexpected times. We just breathe and let destiny do the magic.
So in the meantime, fall in love. There's nothing more beautiful than it. Its a state of trance.
Spend time on small things that may seem big tomorrow if you forsook it today.
Laugh like the apocalypse is at hand.
Forgive the bitches and the insignificant men.
Don't be hesitant to get woozy with your whoever.
Eat like a gourmand.
Sleep longer.
Visit your parents.
Stick like fevikwik to your convictions.
For now, let's not pause. Let's just enjoy this wandering. When you just let it flow it will start happening. When it starts happening you know your journey is not meaningless. And when its not meaningless, you know you've got there. Be loved. Stay blessed :)
Errance heureuse..!!
