FEAR-FREE
Both are 4 letter words. Choice is yours. They say we have only one life, I guess it is the other way around because we live every day, every moment but die only once. So ideally, we should feel free often than be in fear. Why do we wait in life for that distinct moment when we can wear that new dress I bought when I had visited Dubai, why do I wait for that special guest to come for my new crockery shimmering in that showcase to be out and set on the table, Why do I look at the calendar everyday and wait for my birthday to cut the three tier cake, why am I still waiting to get thin to fit into that shimmering bodycon dress, why am I waiting to rejoice only when I get admitted to the best school or college, why is there a milestone for me to be what I am, why am I delaying my celebration because I do not have the big house that I want, why am I waiting for that degree to give myself the acclamation, why do I have to wait for that praise from somebody else to reconfirm my achievements??
I was
born naked, speechless, fearless, thoughtless. I was born as water, directionless.
I had no target; I had no ambitions. I was happy. I was carefree until I saw,
and I was told. Norms are set and the water body starts taking directions. We
take in somethings and ignore certain. The central processing unit develops at
its pace. Engaged in ten thousand distractions around the world. I follow as I see.
I have new responsibilities; I have rules I need to abide by. Either life is so
good that I fear something might go wrong or life is muddled, and I am always
anxious about the better thing to happen soon. I am always living in the
transit even though I was born at the destination. What am I looking for and
why am I even “looking forward to”? I waste my life in planning, planning and
planning. Waiting for that right moment to hit the clock! Alas it never came because
when it came, I had some other aspirations and notions. Do not wait for that
new dress to sulk in your almirah, wear it today for you will still look as
beautiful and handsome that you thought you would, take out that shimmering
crockery from the cabinet and enjoy your best meal every moment because you are
yourself the biggest guest here, cut the yummiest red velvet cake and share it
with all, if cutting the cake meant birthday then the beauty is that we have
a reason to celebrate every day just by
cutting that lavish piece of tower. Wear that Bodycon dress and show off every
part of your body because no one is more pretty that you in front of that mirror.
Rejoice that moment even if you are in a school which is “socially” not
recognized but has given you the right to smile when you want to and not to be
burdened. Sprinkle that expensive perfume in your dressing and smell good for
yourself even if the circumstances do not allow you to spread it out. The size of the house today is not the concern
because if you are privileged enough to be home, whatever the size , breathe
that fresh air and enjoy your favorite cup of coffee with your loved ones, the
big hospitals are no good. Because “size
does not always matter”.
Some have bid adieu, and some are struggling. Life has given us the biggest lesson that, some things are not in our control then why do we want to catch hold of “Life” in fear and dismay. Live it today and every day. If something must go wrong will go wrong than why do you want to waste time in its correction.
TIME IS ON
A RUNNING SPREE..
