Look out for the biggest Deadline of your life...!!

Average lifespan is 75 years, that’s 900 months and even in those 900 months, we spend so much time doing things we don’t want to do. We so much time in pleasing people we don’t actually like. We spend our time filling rows of excel sheets or writing thousands of lines on our desks. People are strange, they are constantly angered/triggered by trivial things, but on a major matter totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice. Yes, people are irrational, but so are you. Make your acceptance of human nature as radical as possible.

When we turn 60, our knees feels weak and minds feel slow – all we have is hearts full of regrets. The regrets of the things that we could have done in those 900 months, trips you could have gone on in those 900 months, 900 wishes that could have been fulfilled which are still lingering on in your wish list. 900 ways of showing someone that you loved them dearly all through the days in smiles and in tears.

Ohh God, we keep chasing happiness in things that aren’t even real. We even train our subconscious mind around all these 900 months with mob mentality, cacophony, nickel-and-dime things such as A fancy appartment, or a latest iPhone, Brand new car and thus we actually get so lost in chasing material things that we forget the actual happiness..the real happiness of falling in love, happiness in making someone smile, cheering up a random stranger or the happiness of just sitting with closest buddies in the balcony and talking our hearts out entire night in our Pajamas.

We get so caught up in the life between Monday to Saturday’s or 9 to 6 pm that we forgot to love ourselves on those weary mornings, those uneasy evenings and all times in between too. We get so tired of the schedules, the deadlines, the meetings that we totally ignore the biggest deadline that we are riding on – The deadline of our Life.....Yes we have limited time with us....Every Day is once in a lifetime...!!!!

I don’t know who needs to read this/listen to this but its okay to miss a deadline or two in a while. Its okay to quit, its okay to fall down, its okay to cry those tears and clean our spirits, its okay to love ourselves fully because if we don’t then who will actually…!!!!

We relax on plane even though we don't know the pilot, We relax on ship even though we don't know the Captain, we relax on a bus even though we don't know the driver....Why don't we then relax in life knowing that the Universe/God has everything under control. We make our lives hard by always being in our heads...Life is Simple...get out of your head and get into the moment. Every minute of every day we are ageing, every encounter with others alters and shapes our ideas, we are continuous work in progress never quite the same.

Every man' life ends the same way. it is the only the details of how he/she lived and how he died that distinguishes one from the other......so Learn to forgive, Learn to love better, Learn to live, learn to laugh alone or with your dear ones who have been your pillars because when you are weak and alone at 75, these memories will be the only thing that will give you the strength to Stay Alive until you are gone..!!!!

I recall Khalil Gibran - 

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you but by the attitude you bring to your life....not so much by what happens to you but by the way your mind looks at what happens.
