Gyan!

“Experience is watyou get when you dint get what u wanted”
A quote by Randy Pausch, from his of series Randy Pausch Last Lecture - Isn’t it so very true. If I look back at the whatsoever little experiences of life I have had so far I find this quote to be very perfectly matching!
Though at that moment the feeling of remorse and despair on not getting the desired surrounds one from every corner, very soon in future I have come to realize the fact that what follows next becomes a memorable experience in life. Nature has a beautiful way of handling everything. It gives you back everything that you deserve at a very right time. I firmly believe that one gets what is the best for them. What we couldn’t get was never really meant for us. There are different thoughts to it, some folks do tell me that we choose to think this way to get away from the reality and to give some peace and justification to ourselves. While I respect their thoughts I totally differ in mine.
This no where means we do not however work towards our goals. We can do only that much though. Work to the best of ones ability and very sincerely but then don’t expect/argue over the results. They never are in our hands. The Bhagwad Gita explains the same concept in the very Influential “Nishkama Karma” philosophy. Well if any one follows the sayings of the Bhagwad Gita with full faith, would surely attain a blissful experience of life. Its just that we are all so much entangled in the complexities created very much by us that we have forgotten our basics.
Life is indeed meant for experiencing the different emotions of life. You see it all in this one life itself – Joy, sorrow, pain, success, grief, victory. One must make the best possible use of it and lead this life with a lot of grace. Be humble, kind and generous, Never lose the child like wonders in you, Help others. All of this would make one a better human being. I continuously everyday make an attempt to be a better person.
Do you?
