Shaayari on target

 


Shaayari on target


Aaj yahan aaye hai tho yahin thak ka roohane safar likhthe hai

Yuon  tho hum niklethe ghar se kahin aur hi jaane ke liye….

Though of course, I hadn’t planned to come here when I started from my home. (I had planned on going elsewhere when I started from my home!)

How beautifully poetically explained the “reality of life”!!

It applies to so many of us. It encompasses our life journey and our life story too!

"Now that I am at this crossroads of life, let me write about my soul's journey

inspite of not having wanted to make this journey, for I had wanted to go elsewhere when i embarked on this journey of life..."

We dream as kids. We dream as adults. We dream of our lives.

But, life’s twists and turns push us many times away from our dreams and desires. It leads us where we never dreamt of. It takes us to shores unknown to us.

When we look back, we are often surprised at everything we have gone through.

We are amazed at all we have learned, amassed, experienced and felt.

We realize we have grown in the process.

The journey though was unknown to us, undesired by us, yet it gave us a lot. Agreed, we didn’t receive many or sometimes any of the things we desired, and yet, when we sit to look at the final tally, we marvel at the count of shiny marbles in our hands. We feel proud of our life. We take pride in our journey. We realize it was not the “travel as per our desire” but “the need of the soul”. And so, maybe that’s why our soul has grown in the process. The soul rejoices where the heart loses and cries!!!

And then, we start taking pride in our journey and start narrating our heroic travelogue to one and all – more so to ourselves! We relish our journey – our soul journey.

And we come to understand, nay know that by losing the way we found the path and the goal of our life!

Now can you relate it with your life?

Is this understood now?
