When I woke up, it was totally dull and depressed. It was a complete blackout and nothing could be examined. Not a single sound or a rustling. I shortly saw that I was totally alone. I was the one left out. I ran around here and there in order to find some daylight and a clue about life but wasn’t any. I was all in tears and sobbing myself. Why me?<br />
<br />
Whenever anything bad happens, I am to be blamed for that. There is a unanimous biased vote approved against me. I have become a symbol of hate. A person dies or an animal, a tree falls or a building, a road is blocked or a runway, all five fingers point at me. Why me?<br />
<br />
They stare back at me darkly, mocking me. I am not defective because I look ugly it is because I was born to be unfit. I am the guilty party that you will find on this planet. I am the cause for all bad that’s going on. People say life without me would be full of serenity and prosperity. Angels will rejoice over my demise and the world will bring a sigh of relief. In short, the universe would be a safer spot to live in without me. Why me?<br />
<br />
The story presented is entirely one sided. I cannot bring my shell to any reputable court on this planet. I have been declared culprit and charged guilty even before the case is submitted to the evaluator. When I try to speak up, they choke up my way and when they speak up it’s for everyone to try. Why me?<br />
<br />
If I cry, then it is because of my wrongdoings. If I am insulted, that’s what I am meant for. If I am killed, then this is what I deserve. If I retaliate then I am a criminal. Why me?<br />
<br />
I am suffered to be a slave and slavery is all I should do. I cannot rule. This is way out of the question. If I stand up for my rights then I am pushed to sit down. My people are doomed to be a tough and rotten life. A loaf of bread is plenty for the intact day. Why me?<br />
<br />
If I am happy, then they can’t resist it. If I succeed, their blood boils. If I try to fly, they burn my wings. If I try to explore, they shut down my path. Why me?<br />
<br />
If my friends do wrong, then I am also wrong. If others do wrong, then that’s their personal act. If my people do wrong, then our entire community is a culprit, but if others do the same then that’s a separate story. Why me?<br />
<br />
If I stand up I am a rebel, if they stand up they are nationalists. If I go, I am an extremist, if they fail they are sufferers. If I live, I am a betrayer. If they exist, they are champions. Why these double standards? Why me?<br />
<br />
If I speak up, I am viewed as an outright liar. If they speak up, they are the heroes of humankind. I cannot speak even if I have the proof against my opponents, but they can put false allegation on me whenever they feel alike. Why me?<br />
<br />
If my people pull in their own conclusions, they are held as invalid. When their people arrive at a decision, it is labelled as democracy. I am impelled to yield a big price if I acquire a decision for myself. Why me?<br />
<br />
If I follow my dress code, I am a rabid. If they conform to their dress code, they are pious. My practices are denounced as dangerous for mankind whilst theirs’ brings prosperity. Why me?<br />
<br />
My annoyance is only my pain. Their pain is world’s pain. My battles are only my struggles. Their struggles unite the whole Earth. My sufferings are inaudible. Why me?<br />
<br />
My lecture is considered unbearable. Their speech is labelled ‘freedom of expression’. My words are, either misinterpreted or remove as they breach community rights. Others possess a free hand to say whatever they like to say about me. I am just supposed to stay impervious? Why me?<br />
<br />
My errors are unacceptable, but theirs are venial. Why am I labelled notorious? Why me?<br />
<br />
My people die day in day out, it’s a normal action. When their people go, it’s an irreparable loss for the world. Is the line of my people available in the grocery store for free? Why me?<br />
<br />
Nobody sympathizes with me. Am I incomprehensible? They dictate the direction they desire. They impose what they require. What about me? I am a single and helpless soul who isn’t paid a heed. Nobody even bothers to take heed to my cries and sorrows. Why are these double standards applicable only to me? Am I not human? Even animals get a fuller treatment than me. Why me?</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Man is a social animal. He has been like this since day one and this will remain the same for eternity. Our surroundings and gatherings shape up our opinions. As a human being with thinking capability, it is not possible to act as a neutral. For each and every thing on this planet we have a view be it good or bad, positive or negative. How can you be neutral when you have not been made that way? In my dictionary, this word does not exist. Erase this word from your mind. It isn’t anything. Wise people are those who are affected by their surroundings but do not let these factors hinder their quest to seek the truth. If a person is at fault and the whole community supports him then this does not mean that I should do that as well if I know the truth. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Why do people pretend to be neutral? There can be many ways for doing so. Mostly people avoid doing so as they don’t want to get into trouble by siding with one or the other. Others have certain vested interests which they protect by not siding with any party. At the end of the day, the fact is that every person is inclined towards one thing or the other no matter if they declare it publicly or keep it to themselves. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is no hard and fast rule that you need to follow when it comes to letting your feelings known. It is highly advisable to do so when it is beneficial to do so and helps in a positive manner. Being silent and serve as a mere spectator all the time is not ideal. There are times when you need to stand up and speak up. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Emotions play a big role in a person’s life. We must learn when to keep them intact. More on that later!

Have you ever thought what most of the successful people had in common? They all endured hardships. Their lives were full of ups and downs but what separated them from others was that they faced all that came in their way with their heads high. They were fully focused and committed to their cause and never looked back. What we lack is the constant drive and determination to pull things off. At times we are extremely motivated and just want to give our best shot but there are times when we just want to quit and run away!<br />
<br />
Why me? Why always me? When I turn around, I find the rest enjoying normal life then why am I the one who has to face all this? It’s because I have been given the chance, a golden opportunity to get enrolled amongst the best. To be counted and ranked with the elite that people admire. Theses hurdles only make you a strong person. They help you understand life and how to live it.<br />
<br />
If you have financial problems, use your skills to earn a living. If you can’t get a job then employ yourself. If you have family issues, resolve them. If people are not willing to come to you, then take a step in their direction. If you have health issues, fight them till the last possible step. Don’t give up. If you can come out on top, then surely you can be proud of yourself. Well Done.<br />
<br />
Does this make you happy? No! Okay. Here is an activity that I would like you to do. Choose one person i.e. celebrity that you've always admired in your life and that person has done something really great or revolutionary. Read the biography of that person and the journey towards success and you will get the answer.</div>

Last time my post was full of criticism. Well this is how life is! Previously I planned to continue on the same theme and wanted to add how you can contribute for the benefit of your society and play your due role but now I have revised that idea a bit.<br />
<br />
Regardless of your cast and religion, people all over the globe plan for the upcoming year. Each company puts down certain targets to achieve and so do many individuals. Are you amongst those who plan? Yes, bingo that’s too good! This post will just help to give you a few more ideas. If you haven’t planned before then don’t worry. Together we can work things out!<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 1: Write out one single thing that we wish to accomplish or change in yourself </u></b><br />
<br />
Your goals can be many but I believe in simplicity. Just focus on one thing which for you is most important.
Remember: always set realistic goals or else you are doing more harm to yourself than to others<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 2: Write down the hindrances that you face to accomplish that </u></b><br />
<br />
Most of the times our mind is our biggest obstacle, if we overcome that and stay determined then we can certainly achieve our goal. Write down all the problems that you face to achieve to fulfill your dream.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 3: Write down the steps that you can take to overcome the obstacles</u></b><br />
<br />
At times there are certain problems that are not in our control i.e. we can’t help it like economic conditions, cultural barriers etc. Just focus on what you can do and search for alternatives<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 4: Be strong! Through all thick and thins of your life</u></b><br />
<br />
Well if you can’t handle the tough times then it’s better not to do this exercise from day one. You can simply close this post and move on. It is nothing but a waste of time.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 5: Assess every step and strictly evaluate your efforts and where things are going wrong</u></b><br />
<br />
Evaluate, evaluate and evaluate! If you won’t then who will? Don’t think that somebody will do it for you! This is not a fairy tale but your life<br />
<br />
<b><u>Step 6: Most importantly! Only trust God for guidance</u></b><br />
<br />
I have met so many people in my life but there are only a handful who actually know me and what I want to achieve in life. Only 1-2 with whom I consult. Why? Because I strongly believe that God will guide me.
<br />
<br />
Remember discussing your issues with each person that you meet will do you no good! The more you discuss, the more confused you’ll be at the end of the day<br />
<br />
Consult God in your prayers and seek help. From human kind only those in which you strongly believe really care for you<br />
<br />
Lastly, how did it go? Do let me know as well! Don't tell me that your goal was only to make money, as even if you achieve that goal its not a big deal!<br />
<br />
Cheers….

I was wondering the other day, how many people have actually made an impact in other’s life? There are only handfuls that make them self count. Why is that so? What about the rest millions and billions who just come and go without doing any constructive worth remembering?<br />
<br />
History tells us that this has always been the case. There are only 20% i.e. 10% on either side of the scale who make others life either better or worse while the remaining 80% <span style="color: red;">just sit and watch</span>!<br />
<br />
To be honest, I find it very frustrating! It is so easy to sit back and criticize while equally hard to stand up and be counted. As I had explained in my previous post <a href="http://mahamiqbal.blogspot.com/2011/04/how-to-lead-happy-life.html" target="_blank">no one is happy in this life</a>. If they say they are, it’s not true. Every body’s life is full of problems and struggles but if your attitude is positive, you face those worries with a smiling face. Coming back to this topic, do you love to be called a sitting duck? I hate this standard answer “<b>What can I do?</b>” Oh really! Have you ever cared about others as you do for your family? Have you ever had tears in your eyes for those who are suffering, like you have for your beloved? NO! Why? Because “I DON’T CARE”, “DO HELL WITH THE PEOPLE”. I have already got enough problems up my own sleeve to think about others.<br />
<br />
Face it this is a reality. You can give lame excuses to others, but deep inside your heart, you know the truth. Remember, if you won’t feel for others and stand up for their rights, tomorrow when YOU will suffer, nobody will be there for you either. Guess what, if that’s the case, then I think <i><u>YOU deserve what YOU get</u></i>.
<br />
<br />
God made you a human with feelings, but you wished to live the life of an animal i.e. living for your own survival. Tomorrow don’t complain because you always preferred to <span style="color: red;">just sit and watch</span>!

If we ponder and look back in the history, we find that in the past a man has either reached height of glory through tremendous doings or either has fallen down miserably in the darkest tunnels. He is a mixture of both and who can stop him as he does whatever he feels like but at times, the man in his madness crosses all the boundaries and commits deeds that are a shameful act, something that cannot be pardoned or forgiven. Such barbaric acts show the inner vicious beast that is hidden inside him and evil brain thinking is now working to destroy his own self.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At times you feel pity for your own self as you are nothing and yet you think that you are everything. At the end of the day the clouds of death gather above him and lure him to his final resting place. With such dark clouds luring above, yet the man acts like a blind guy. Same is the case that is applicable to all the evil forces who not only brutally wipe away cities and countries in their lust for power but also degrade other religions. The recent example is the burning of Holy Quran in Afghanistan by the hands of those who do not ever deserve to be labeled as humans. The question then arises? Who is extremist? Who is terrorist? Is that a guy who retaliates in anger after you mock and wipe away his family, take down his house and torn away pages of his Holy Book? Or the mind who does this intentionally? Who defines the definitions?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Burning of quran at the hands of American and NATO forces in Afghanistan is the same chain that leads to that particular mind set which warns to create disharmony and atrocity in this world. Who wants to meddle with the Divine Laws of God. Does disrespecting someone’s religion makes you win people’s heart? Why can’t we live peacefully and respect the values each other? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An in-depth analysis of history will tell you that it always the people with authority who bring in disharmony in this world. It is time that our masses should stand up and let their voices be heard. Staying as puppets in our own comfort zone will only add to the sufferings of millions and who knows tomorrow we may also be amongst those oppressed! Think before it’s too late….. </div>Mahamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17245668379623944013noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655719259323266540.post-50054875193724966602011-04-03T17:28:00.000+05:002011-04-03T17:28:31.366+05:00Who is Happy in this life? Nobody!<div style="text-align: justify;">Who is happy in this world? If you look around, you shall find people have lots and lots of problems. I bet there is no house on this planet which doesn't have any problems. I did some research online to get some stats with regards to increase in diseases like blood pressure, tension, depression and mental disorders etc. The stats are alarming. They might not be perfect but estimates give us a good idea. Let me quote a few facts and stats:</div><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<ul><li style="text-align: justify;">15% of the population of most developed countries suffers severe <a href="http://www.upliftprogram.com/depression_stats.html">depression</a>. According to WHO: Depression has so far affected 121 million people worldwide.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">In Canada 10-20% of youth is subjected to <a href="http://www.cmha.ca/bins/content_page.asp?cid=6-20-23-44">mental illness</a>.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Around 1 million people commit <a href="http://www.who.int/mental_health/prevention/suicide/suicideprevent/en/">suicide</a> every year, which accounts for one death after every 40 seconds. More than 90 percent of these people have mental disorders</li>
</ul><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">We find that the most prominent causes of this are:</div><br />
<ol><li>Stress be it at home or work place</li>
<li>Family issues</li>
<li>Poverty</li>
<li>Unemployment</li>
<li>Financial burdens</li>
<li>Huge expectations</li>
<li>Need for luxuries</li>
<li>Peer pressure</li>
<li>Lack of good and sincere friends</li>
<li>No helping hand in need and much more.</li>
</ol><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">At the end of the day, the question that arises is? What is the root cause of all this? Are all the rich people of this life happy? No. <a href="http://www.elistmania.com/juice/10_celebrities_who_attempted_suicide_but_were_unsuccessful/">Here is a list of top 10 personalities who attempted to commit suicide</a>. This proves that people of all ages are suffering one way or the other. Some go to high extreme and thus suffer the consequences, some keep to themselves while others try to take it out on others. Only a small portion of those try to figure out the reason and solve the problem.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Happiness and satisfaction has nothing to do with the money. When things are not going your way, an internal battle starts within you. Your mind starts reacting in different directions. It is in your control to either be strong and think positively or let negative thoughts occupy your mind. For example: you lost your family or a loved one in an accident. What do you do? You either go in to depression thinking that it’s the end of the world or you calm down and admit that everyone has to go one day or the other. This is how the life cycle goes on and adapt to changes. If you have financial problems: you go on and commit robbery, fed up and commit suicide or work harder than ever to earn a good living. If your current job is not paying you good, go on and find a new one; if not then work part time elsewhere. Still not good enough, then cut your unnecessary expenses and if all doesn’t work then look at those who earn lesser than you and learn how they are surviving.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is a solution to every problem in this world. Ask God for help and guidance. Pray to him and do whatever is in your hands. Remember, life is full of tensions. No single person on this planet is free from all worries. This is not possible. Only those remain happy who are satisfied and contented with whatever they have. As I wrote earlier <a href="http://mahamiqbal.blogspot.com/2010/01/how-much-do-you-know-about-your-life.html">be strong mentally and learn to face the challenges in life my exploring yourself</a>.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Remember, if you run after the world, God will you into the hands of the world but if you run for the love of God, the world will run after you. So stop taking these worldly problems too seriously. They are part and parcel of life!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

I think I am. What about You?<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As strange as it sounds, in reality it is true. How many of us have actually thought about it? Are we fools? As per my understanding, each and every one of us is gifted with a brain and ability to think no matter if you are a beggar or a king. We all are free and can think of what ever we feel like. Do you know what I am thinking of at the moment? No you don’t that’s its power. You may think I admire you but in reality you might be the person I hate the most.</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Coming back to the original topic of my post “Am I A Fool?” Yes, I am. Why because I follow what others do. What Mr. XYZ says becomes a corner stone for me. You may call this madness or craziness, I don’t care because for me, he is every thing in the world. What ever he says is right and what the whole world says is wrong. If he says its day (be it night) I’ll still trust him. That’s called blind following.</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eAW05Cy8_pM/S79kMBJmvYI/AAAAAAAAAAc/0pWS2daZVK0/s1600/FOOL7logo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="168" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eAW05Cy8_pM/S79kMBJmvYI/AAAAAAAAAAc/0pWS2daZVK0/s200/FOOL7logo.jpg" width="200" /></a><span style="font-size: small;">How many of us actually do so? In reality a lot of us do this. Be it a politician, a celebrity, a sports man or any other person. We tend to idolize a person and then firmly believe in what he says. Why is the question that arises in mind? There is no doubt an emotional attachment with some one we like; agreed because it’s natural. Every other person has different tastes and preferences but blind following is madness. </span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Where is your thinking ability? Why don’t you think of it before you agree to it? Have we lost all our brains? If each one of us starts to think and react according to his understanding then there won’t be that much of a fuss around. Few days back I had an argument with one of my friends. Despite proving by facts that her stance was wrong, she still didn’t agree to it and was adamant on the point that if “he” has said so then that is it. </span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Why do we even bother to acquire education when we have to do blind following? Why do we spend so much time on research and experiments when we will eventually succumb to what “he” has to say? Isn’t this annoying? Isn’t this frustrating? What a waste of an extremely valuable part of our body. It’s a complete shame, Pity on me! I believe at the end of the day, its better not to have the brain and thinking ability altogether then to have it displayed as an exhibition.</span></div>Mahamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17245668379623944013noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655719259323266540.post-45328766810110424412010-03-23T13:26:00.000+05:002010-03-23T13:27:25.037+05:00Optimism Is The Key To Success<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today in this day and age all the people are running here and there. As such there is no happiness and satisfaction in life. You check out the billionaires of the world and all they care about is their wealth. While on the other hand there are masses, extremely poor people who are starving to death day in day out.</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Where do we stand? What are we doing? Are we mere spectators watching the show or do we too belong to one of such categories? Where actually are we headed? My life, my family, my money; is that it? Is this our purpose of living?</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Every where you see hopelessness and pessimism; we don’t trust anyone and worst than that we don’t support anyone. If a person raises his voice against the injustice, we think he is crazy. Instead of landing a helping hand and support the cause and strengthen the chain of resistance, we turn around and do the opposite. We taunt such people and pass sarcastic remarks such as “What can you do?” and “What can I do?” There are billions living in this world. I cannot do anything. Nobody will listen to me.</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">That’s what you think. Taking the first step is always difficult but as you move along you find that it was not too difficult after all. It’s all about believing in yourself, your abilities, your potential. Pessimists are bound to fail. Obviously negative thinking will never ever permit you to stand up and do great things in life. Who are you afraid of the world or your own self? </span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Life is going on from the day of its inception and it will continue to. People come and depart but life goes on. Do you want to spend your life just the way it is going? What the big deal in it? Living for a greater cause is indeed a big deal. Use your potential to bring in change. You as an educated person must always be optimistic. Here are a few things which can help you get motivated and do great things in life in the midst of selfishness and materialism:</span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Read books regarding the lives of people who made impossible, possible </span></li>
</ul><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Gather yourself around people who believe in the same cause </span></li>
</ul><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Consider optimism and hope as your strength, something that you have and others don’t and that’s what makes you special</span></li>
</ul><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Trust your abilities and identify the areas where you can utilize them to bring about a change in the life of others</span></li>
</ul><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Mobilize people and make them realize that just sitting and discussing will do no good. We need to stand up and let our voices be heard against all the injustice in this world</span></li>
</ul><ul style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">Lastly, have a source of inspiration for yourself. In the midst of all the troubles and worries when your eyes are full of tears, turn back to him and ask him for the guidance. Who better to refer to than your own creator?</span></li>

Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.”</b> Helen Keller</span></div>Mahamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17245668379623944013noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655719259323266540.post-15627705909131203652010-01-24T17:17:00.001+05:002010-01-24T18:56:58.397+05:00Do You Have A Dream Powerful Enough To Bring A Change?<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What is a dream? A wishful thinking or a drive to reach a certain level? Well in reality its both. A dream is a driving force that serves as a fuel in your thrive to reach that level. How many of us dream? Majority of us do but how many of us convert their dreams to reality? This is where you can judge the strength of your vision. </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In my opinion there are two kinds of people. Those who only dream and do nothing else. They are wishful thinkers or in short day dreamers who would love to have their dream turned into reality but are too lazy to make any actual attempt for it. The next type is of those who actually dream and then plan to make it happen. History is full of such great people who single handedly lead a movement or turned the world’s map upside down. You might be thinking that leaders had masses behind them to support their cause but have you ever wondered who actually initiated the movement? It was one man who had the courage and desire to stand up and fulfill his dream. </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There are many people who actually have a dream and they do struggle to make it happen but some how aren’t successful. Are they losers? No they are not. Why? because they at least made an effort and did their level best to fulfill their vision. </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What do you dream about? Becoming a millionaire or a president or a sports legend or a celebrity or someone famous? Is that it? What if I tell you that you have become a millionaire then what will you do? Dreams are much more than worldly wishes. You must dream for a cause. A purpose way beyond the benefit of your own self. A desire to do something good and noble. A desire to bring a change.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In short your dream should be for a greater cause so that at the end you can justify your existence on this planet. God has given you the brain and ability to utilize it effectively now go on and make yourself proud.</span><br />

A 4 letter word which comprises of our entire time period on this planet. Strangely we hear it so many times that “enjoy life” but when it comes to death, we are either stunned, nervous or simply close our eyes and run away from reality. Is that it? There are 24 hours in a day. You wake up early morning, go to college, work place or where ever and then return home, relax and it’s the end of the day. Then the same cycle continues the next day and the same routine goes on and on till a time comes where it all has to end. It’s just like a journey where you go to spend holidays. Enjoy it fully and then there comes a time when you need to pack up and go from where you came. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">Ok so what’s the big deal in it? Each person living on this planet Earth has a dream that I want to do this, and this and so on. My question is: how would you do all this when you don’t even know how much time you have to do all this? Who can stand up and tell me that he knows exactly when his time will end? Is there any one?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">How many of you actually think about your life? Do you even try to ask yourself?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">• Who am I?</span><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">• Why am I here in this world?</span><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">• If I can’t control my life and death then what actually is there that I can control?</span><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">• If I am privileged enough to be born in a wealthy family or earn millions then what’s its use? Can it save me from the claws of death? </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">If you don’t have the answer to all this then all your efforts are useless. It would be a shame to know that despite being highly educated and living a reputable life you are unable to realize your true self. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">Can I give you the answers to all these questions? Yes I can. But will I give you the answers? No I won’t? Why? Because it’s your life and You are the judge. What I can tell you is that you control your own destiny. Yes, agreed that you don’t have the power to change your in coming and out going time from this planet but what about the time that you spend in between? You can control that! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: times new roman;">Look deep inside your self. Explore your inner and outer world with an open mind and you will find your answers. </span>Mahamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17245668379623944013noreply@blogger.com0
