It‘s now or never!
Random Thoughts
Yes, It‘s now or it will happen never. That is the ultimate truth you got to live with, if you really want to achieve something in your life. It was the passion to write when I was a kid that made a writer that I’m today and now, I am penning this article which you’re reading right now. If I hadn’t started writing that day then this thing wouldn’t have happened today.
I feel every one of us is gifted in someway or the other. Some of us are lucky enough to know our gifts and many aren’t. Sadly, their whole life could come to an end before they even know!
Tomorrow you may wake up as a 70 or 80 year old and would still have the wish which you had many years back when you were still young and energetic. If you’d gone for it then, you would have achieved it. That unfulfilled wish which you are still having now, could have been a wish no longer, but an achievement to have remembered today. Sadly, now, you can’t do that with your frail body and physical strength. You push back that dream or wish you had from then to the back of your mind. However, it keeps popping up every now and then just to irritate you and make you feel bad every time you remember it.
‘I could have done it! I could’ve done it!’ your heart says, ‘But you postponed it every time you could have done it!’ Your inner voice replies to you. The problem with each one of us is that we think that we will live forever and we can do anything anytime. It is this attitude that makes to put things aside for another day. That another day usually doesn’t come and if it does come then it would be too late. The reality is Life is too short…too short than you think. Those who’ve understood this truth are able to achieve what they want to in their individual lives. Others aren’t able to and it ends up being a wish or a dream for the rest of their lives.
Do what pops up your mind today…listen to your heart or your inner voice. Pick up that phone and call your grandpa and tell him how you feel about him. How much he means to you. If you have time, then go and tell him in person. Let it not remain inside your heart. Your thoughts and feelings are like the birds locked in a cage. You need to unlock the cage and let them fly out. Who knows? Tomorrow, you may have the courage to speak out your heart to a dear one. But sadly that loved one is no more to listen to your words from your heart. This could happen to anyone.
Go, tell the cute girl you meet in a coffee shop or some place what you think about her and about your feelings. She too may have similar feelings, but unable to express to you. She may be even that so called someone made for you cliché. You’ll never know till you pick up your courage and tell her. If you don’t tell her today then she may walk out of your life tomorrow. You’d end up with the thought of her in your heart. It may keep popping in your mind every now and then, as you had truly loved her. Meanwhile, she would have long forgotten about you and started living happily with her family somewhere. If you are unlucky then you may get to see her again being happy with her husband and kids. This will bring back the old memories to your mind and hurt you further more.
Drive to that beautiful picturesque place you always dreamed of and enjoy it. Tomorrow you may not get a chance to do it. You may become too old, sick and bed ridden. No one from your family would have time or the patience to take you there. Even if they take you there, that place would have changed over the time into something else. The picture you had of that place in your mind since then only remains. You sigh and tell yourself, “I could have come to this place then…”
Everything you want and need is up to you to make it happen. You need to walk your path and define what life means to you by doing and achieving things you want to. There will be doubters to set you off the road. However, do not listen to them. Someday, they will end up thinking ‘He did it and I didn’t do it! I could have done it, but didn’t do it!’ Be a man of action and not of words. For words can be son forgotten, but your actions will be remembered for times yet to come!
Don’t follow someone into something, be your own HERO. As it is rightly said that those who follow others can go only until the crowd goes. Whereas, those who make their own path will go where no else has gone before. That’s the truth. You are here to lead your life and set your own example for others to follow. You do the things that you want to do and the rest will take care of itself.
Build your days around what is more important to you. Because, when you’re doing what you’re passionate about you are making this world a better place. Look at your goals and work towards them. Many people can define what life is? But it is you who is going to live it the way you want to live!
