We have added Years to life, but not Life to years..
by Ebi
Each and every day in our life can be the day where we may need a change. Moving on with our daily schedule, made by someone else, many a time we feel that each and every day is passing by so easily, that we may not have gained anything to treasure in the name of that day. May be we are performing the same duty everyday.
Dalai Lama, in his poem, "The Paradox of our Times" states..
"We have learned how to make a living, but not a life;
We have added years to life, but not life to years.."
The latest lifestyle in which we are living in, demands close attention on each and every part of our life. Let it be our economy, health, food, spirituality, character or education; we are enforced to be well established in all these. But, are we really satisfied about each and every day, whenever we go to sleep at night? Do we always experience the pleasure of achieving something worthwhile or the joy of being a blessing to someone on that day. It really matters, because a day spent never returns.
Why don't we try this..
Try to have some variety in your in daily life. Let everyday be a special day in which you would have done at least three different things and achieved six different tasks. It is true, that we set many goals for each day and we achieve many of them. But, does that achievement make an impact in our life, on that day.. We need to think about it..
Allocate time in the office where your professional skills are needed, also remember your close friends, to whom your friendship matters. Do not forget to smile at the beggar who is waiting outside your workplace, to whom your little smile is a big gift. Find time to give a call to your love, who is waiting for your call for the last few hours. Make some time to study and gain knowledge, so that you may be fruitful. Learn to pay a visit to the tea spot and the fruit shop, where your buying provides selling. Promise to spare hours to be with your family to whom you are their life..
Have variety in your daily life..
May be you can at least adjust with your daily struggle to be happy..
