[The following writing is from the diaries of a philosopher-friend-guide. Written during times of excruciating experiences, the writing is a testimonial to the man who grew to become a bearer of truth himself. As a tribute to our everlasting friendship, find below the article christened "The Real fights" ]
"We start always with fear... Fear of losing may be!!! But Start we must.. And in the life that we endure (Some have the luxury of living!) we have the luxury of making choices. Today I write as I summon my deepest self, my conscience, in the wake of a triumphant past and an uncertain future. Still holding firm to the things I hold dear, to the ones I love, while the inertia of my life plunging me ahead.
These are the "Real" fights... When you have to choose between love and giving up. When you have to choose between losing and giving up. Nobody is great. We only meet great challenges and live up to them. I've had my share...
I have loved till my brain reeled. Consumed by the dread of losing I ve cried... And an overwhelming sense of loss prevails today in me. God, perhaps has a reason. I probably could surrender to that thought. But I guess God does'nt owe me an explanation. What when a child is raped? What when a dying parent is met with utter contempt from their children and relegated to the confines of an old age home? What when a child is abandoned by his mother?
But I never failed to love...Never. We can love in that we are infinite. The more we love the greater we are! Its when you see a dog running as fast as he could just so that he didnt lose you that you come to understand... Its all I know or understand of life. Its what brings tears. A most beautiful expression of love!!!
These are the greatest lessons you would learn. When you learn to love,when you learn to forgive. This the highest plane.... Your intention of being good.
Well thats been my life,and this is going to be.....
The most fascinating animal in the world is- A brave man with no plan....
This is what I intend to be... I wish I could be in the wild and understand God's chimerical plans. Why should I have a purpose? I don't think God had one in making us... May be he had choice. Purpose I dont think... I would like to understand the way he made us and probably come to appreciate it. But come to think of it God is everyone's favorite pet!!! Me? I guess I have'nt made up my mind yet... I wish I had that field of infinite intelligence to comprehend. May be then I would'nt be as interested...

But this is what can be made most of life. Spending quality time with friends, finding someone whom you want to live with the rest of your life and holding on to her forever...
Making a life and then giving it your all. "

Good one but the reader fails to understand the reason of this thought.. The thought which made to write The Real fights is not clear or i rather fail to understand what was the reason...
ReplyDeleteThere is a very delicate relationship between an author and a reader. What one understands from a writing also depends on what one wishes or is entitled to.
ReplyDeleteThe reason and the weight of the content is well appreciated by the trained eye. :)
From a bully of the class to a philosopher.Wow!
ReplyDeleteI sense overtones of Existentialism here.Perhaps we have a Nietzsche in the making? :)
Keen observation there RK! Existentialism lies in its place but as far as bullying is concerned I am not sure if it has subsided any bit :P
