Set your Sail

Two ships sailed.....in the same sea....in opposite directions!
Its not the sea that decides where they go. Its the sail that the ships set. The higher the sail, more is the wind and longer the ship goes.
Happened to read this comment somewhere yesterday. A beautiful testimony to the different conditions of lives that begin at almost the same point. We all start at the same point, almost all of us. Looking back, we find ourselvs taking different paths and travelling, long for some - short for the others. Where does this difference come from?
The way our parents bring us up? To a small extent, yes. But in the larger picture, the shade of our own conditioning appears prominent than the family background.
The scholastic education? Again a modicum of difference in the larger picture ( other wise, how does one explain the progress some people make without completing formal education! )
The real reason lies in the attitude of the individual itself. Falling back on the anecdote we started with, even a small ship with a high sail and will to face the waves would go far beyond a freighter with no intention of making headways in the wild wind.
This reminds me of a beautiful quote i once read:
" Its not just physical abilities and average intelligence that makes you successfull".
Its about an unflagging will power and an insatiable apetite to success that textures the war and woof of the fabric called Human destiny.

Greater the Difficulty - Sweeter the Victory
This is what I learnt from the anecdote. Ultimately, where you end up depends not on where you began but on how you travelled. Set your sails and see how far you reach.

So it all began today, shifting the place to a new one. Happens when you are far from that comfort called Home - Sweet Home.
Need to keep moving from place to place, each time getting attached to the atmo and then detaching yourself again. Today was one of the days!!! Had to shift alongwith my friends to a new place. But then I told myself, This is how life goes on....change is the only constant of life!!!!!!
(Wow)
Before I left though, my previous place gave me a walkthrough of the memory lane, all the precious moments that i experienced between those walls. The moods and mischiefs, the love and losses, all the goods and bads of a life called Bachelor.
The Journey still gos on, just that the road has turned and we are into a new way. This will go on, every turn teaching something new, and even if it stops somewhere it will always be indelible in the mind. Starting all over again with the same people and same feelings -------

Jindagi ek paheli bhi hai, Sukh Dukh ki saheli bhi hai.....
Jindagi ek vachan bhi to hai, Jise sabko Nibhana padega !!!!!!!

Life is a mystery, also a friend in times good or bad
Life is also a promise, which has to be kept.
