I recently received a very interesting forward from one of my friends. It fancied how life would be if it were to be reversed. Very interesting piece I must say. Such creativity. Whola! Being a ‘buddha’ though, I hold some contrary views and opinions :P.
The teenage, the twenties. What do you recollect?
Cravings- for attention, for love, for sex, for money, for jobs, for peace, for good company, for achievements, for ambition, for bliss…
Confusions – over morality, over career, over choices, over religion, over actions, over speech, over self…
Criticisms – of unfairness, of politics, of terrorism, of education systems, of blind faith, of restrictions…
Pretensions – of happiness, of joy, of stability, of clarity, due to peer pressure, due to hidden desires...
Yes, this period made me what I am. But it was and wasn’t fun in varying senses.
The thirties, the forties. What do you expect?
Good money, good family, good sex life, moderate achievements, strengthened faith, clearer vision, the joy of teaching, the glow of knowledge, the glow of experience, the joy of loving (selflessly), the joy of caring, the joy of contribution, the joy of living life your true self
The satisfaction, the contentment, the happiness!!
Twenties, I’m loving you! Thirties, I’m coming!!!
