Believe in your dreams

Our aim changes with our present priorities & we derive pleasure once they are met.
When we aim we make our everyday living purposeful. It helps us engross our mind in thinking how to achieve it. An aim can be giving the best in a project; my aim can be writing 10 articles in a week or it can be making 3 people smile everyday.

Goals on the other hand changes with the change in phase of life & we derive satisfaction once they are met. Once the goal is met in one phase, it signifies the end result of ultimate accomplishment toward which an effort is directed -An effort which has taken form of an aim.

-The end result of one phase by being in an organizations top level management, by becoming a profound professional writer or an end result of another phase by becoming a good person.

I aspire to achieve my goals; I desire to get to my aim & together I give hope to my dream.
-Aims, goals are all irrelevant without a proper focus. “You must always know what it is that you want.” said the old king [Alchemist: Paulo Coelho] & when you find out ‘what’, the next question is asking yourself ‘why’ you want it.

An aim, goal or a focus without an objective is playing with the available time. Objective is questioning why to your every want, need and desire. Every human being does something for a reason- that reason could be a need, want or desire. A human being who has no reason has a reason which is yet to be discovered by him.

We respect time when we know why we want something & what is required of us to achieve it. Together with the WHY, WHAT, HOW & WHEN we give a practical touch to our dream making it become a part of the reality of life.

Relationships- A dead end for an escapist

Your footprints travel through the journey of life struggling to reach the destination you have set for yourself. The aim of your life is known in a better way to you than anyone else. This aim which I do not know if is your destination. Design of these prints change as you tumble & you hold these pebbles responsible for being an obstacle in your journey.

In this tiresome yet tireless journey of life we shake hands with many & there are others who are passer bys. Some enter our lives as friends & some truly remain as friends.
Some we call companions while some accompany us throughout our journey.
There are people who influence us positively & then they decide to leave us. While there are some who do not influence us in any way & still pointlessly stay in our lives.

A stranger you trust blindly & a friend whom you trust after unintentional analysis are both capable of wiping off the meaning of trust in our lives. We let our friends know ourselves by sharing what is deeply felt by us. We take the risk of telling other human beings what & how we really are.

Some take advantage of this innocent relationship & throw pebbles on our way. While some passer bys see us falling & offer us a helping hand. We thank them & we fall into a relationship again. There’s no escape to love, friendship & care. There’s no escape to relationships.

I do not know if your aim is to reach the end of this road of life & then walk on a different road of life. I do not know if essence of life is in aiming for a goal & then struggling to achieve it. It makes me wonder if i.e. our destination & if it is so then who are these people whom we meet on this road.

These people who bring major transformation in us; these people who impact our lives greatly. They do it to the extent that we sometimes take turns & decide to walk on a different way.

Essence of life is in meeting these people who touch our lives in their own ways. It is in thinking about the change they bring in us. Essence of life is in losing these people who cause pain to us in their own ways. It is in learning a lesson every time we fail in a relationship.
