WE and ALONE!!

Own life. Living on my / your own. Being the master of my / your own actions.

Sometime or the other we all want that... We all want to be alone where we and only we are the masters.

‘I like to stay alone.’

Yes, this is one of the dreams that we dream. We like to stay alone not for always but for some time in our life.

I wanted to stay alone meaning away from home. Away from my parent’s protective eyes. At first I wanted to see whether I can live on my own, in a different city, whether I can protect myself and sustain myself. But now, I want to live alone, because, living alone has its own magic. We learn to work on our own, we become independent, and we become disciplined.

In our future place, we have rules. Rules of being alone! Some say rules are made to be broken. But in my heart I don’t want these rules to be broken, however golden the rebel opportunities are... I want the rules to stay... You are stunned to read this, but think, rules are there to make us independent, disciplined individuals. Self-reliance is the key to success.

Coming back to ‘alone’. Yes, this word is strong in every sense. Some say alone means there is no one to go to, no friends, no fun life, etc, etc. And some say alone is all about being for your own self, dreaming for yourself, living for yourself. And yes, thinking like this, everything is right about this, it makes me confident!

Alone! Hostel Life! When I think about it, I am scared, I start crying, I get emotional! I dread being alone!

But, why should I be emotional? Why should I dread?

Being here with my family was a usual life.
And then this life will be a routine life.
After settling down, that would be my regular life.
I shout it to myself knowing my heart won’t understand.

I think about my family.
My dreams say family is with you always.
I wonder whether I will make moments for them!
Thoughts say love will always make time.

Being in a known city.
Knowing an unknown city.
Looking back to my life.
Searching my life ahead!

Leaving behind the warmth.
Accepting the new care.
In love with retrospect’s.
Understanding the prospects.

It’s like magic.
Being free. Being able.
It’s like moving forward.
Being known. Being recognized.

Being alone has its perks, but I won’t let it bog me down. Being alone is my new routine life. http://www.manishbengani.com/2013/06/in-love-with-routine-life.html

At first it might not be in the way we want, but in time it will be. If our choice is being alone, we should work on that, live our life, achieve our dreams. Family is always there. We are always there.

WE and What Ifs!!!

Future…

Uncertain and unsure life ahead...

What will happen next? How my future will be? Will my life shape according to my choices?

We always have these questions in our mind. We always think about the future.

My friends and I are constantly thinking about our future for the next two years.
What will happen? Will my dreams become reality? Will I get what I want? Will the teachers love me?

But, don’t you think that we are missing out on life now. We have omitted the joys of being a graduate. Yes, I know, the results are uncertain, given what we have written. But, we have finished college. That itself calls for a celebration.

Yet, here we are, thinking about our post graduation and work days.

True, that we need planning and preparation for our future. For that top ground breaking place, we need to think about our future.
But, that doesn't mean we will forget about our very present.

You must be thinking why I am talking about present and future, because we all know these basics.

Yes, we all know that we should live in the present, future will be shaped accordingly. Yet, we end up thinking about ‘What will happen’ or ‘What if’!

What will happen if I am not selected? What if my parents don’t talk to me anymore because I didn't choose what they chose for me! What will happen if I screw up on my first day? What if I don’t get the first place? What if he got a better offer than me? And so on...  and there are also What will happen if he/she rejects me?? What if that I don’t deserve him/her? What will happen if my boyfriend/girlfriend leaves me? What will happen if he/she falls in love with someone good looking than me? And so forth…

Okay so innumerable what ifs & what will happens. And our present vanishes in this innumerable in this…

You must be thinking that we need to address these “Innumerable what ifs & what will happens” to make our future bright.

But our future will shine only if we work on making us shine… Thinking about these questions and procrastinating them will never make us shine… And if we work on living our present will surely have a shining future… 

And also about asking the right ‘what ifs and what will happen’. Like What will happen if I choose a degree course instead of a diploma course? What if I join this institution instead of this college? What will happen If I loved him/her for what he/she is? What if I give this relationship some time instead of coming to conclusions?

Yes, addressing the right questions makes life simple. But we need to have that affirmative feeling in our questions and also that optimistic attitude to whatever life offers. Yes, you may say all time optimism is hard, when we don’t get what we want. But being sad and crying and feeling disgusted with what we never wanted yet got nevertheless, will never make us happy.

Living our life today is what matters. These what ifs and what will happens come and go. We need to be living today so that as we all say to have a bright and shining future. Addressing the right questions, dealing with life with that smile and that correct attitude helps…
