That strange road
Sometimes getting nostalgic really hits you hard. And during this quarantine, one or the other minute brings up flashbacks. I remember standing at a crossroad… perplexity, quandary dominating my mind. I felt as if my feet were stuck in concrete (or was it a lack of courage?). I knew my step on one of those roads would decide my entire life. The road I wanted to take up was full of chaos, doubt, and incertitude (I couldn’t find any peace!). On its opposite side a strange road was laid. That road also had the same level of difficulties, hurdles. But I could see myself more sorted out on that road. And yes, it was the road to be taken! That one step changed my whole perspective of viewing everything.
Success. The most dominating thought which everyone just keeps on pondering all day and night. What I dug out was that it is inner peace which leads you towards your ultimate goal. It gives proper direction to all your thoughts and actions required for your mission. Never hesitate to do the thing which brings you peace. Peace keeps your state of mind stable. And stability makes you survive over all situations.
There is a storehouse of energy in every individual which needs proper direction. As I said, it is a storehouse, so that energy is expected to be used only when required. No one is a soothsayer to say what is going to happen the next moment. So why should one waste their energy over-thinking and disturb their state of peace? Let that situation have an encounter with you (the energy is already there to deal with it). You can’t have peace with your mind wandering in the future.
Learn to live with your dreams, dreams that bring peace, serenity and composure in your life. Spend the energy working for your dreams; not thinking about them (it won’t make them a reality). And never ever underestimate your dreams for anyone else. No one else can understand them. If you know that this is what brings you happiness, peace… just chase it even if no one supports you. You don’t need anyone’s approval for your goal.
Choosing that strange road completely changed me. Today, I stand as an evolved person who could see all my dreams coming true. Just believe in yourself and you are halfway there. Try finding your strange road. It is “the game changer”!
