The more I see us, the young aged ones I wonder what we don't possess now! We are self sufficient, strong economically, professionally. We are having more freedom of speech than earlier. We take our own decisions. We have become more advanced, more aware, and more compatible. After graduation itself so many of us go for jobs or research or higher education. We are running like that in a marathon. The whole world has become so small that nothing seems to be impossible to know or to achieve. We are having so much power that can shake the world, change the way it runs. Having said this I wondered then why so many suicides, so many heart attacks, so much of frustration, so much of agony, pain, so much irritation, so much of anger brewing inside that erupts in a drastic way sometimes. What is lacking even when we posses almost everything? What is lacking that even after having everything many feels they are lost and confused? What is lacking that people like us gets distracted not professionally, not economically but ethically, morally? Does it matter at all to think seriously about it? I think it matters.
Someone said many years back “The purer the mind, the easier is to control it. The grosser the mind, the more difficult to control”. What I see personally is the only thing we lack is ethics, morality.
When we become powerful, it brings few positive and negative aspects. Power brings more responsibility with it. Every power gives us a choice to become more responsible and utilize the power or to become irresponsible and waste it in vain. It is up to us what we want to become. When one has all possibilities open then the one has to decide to use it to become better person or to twist the opportunity to become a complicated one. A person’s success is not measured by GDP or personal wealth; at least this, person realize at the end. What makes a person successful is how healthy he/she has lived the life. Now when we have lot power and energy we do waste it many times as it is in abandon but what we don’t realize is energy is not always gathered or produced to spend. A stored energy can be utilized for greater reason. We do not eat just to satisfy the tongue and senses. The useful part is stored and utilized slowly for a better reason. As mentioned earlier the grosser the mind the more difficult is to control it. We are all aware of what is happening worldwide but forget to realize what is happening inside us. We cling to grosser demands and loose the finer happiness in long run. Then when we lose our root and spent all energies, we are lost and become frustrated. We have it all. Just that we have to utilize it in a finer and purer fashion. Having a black stallion is a great thing but without training and proper care, even a stallion cannot cross the finish line. Our heart is like a stallion which needs to be polished, taken care of. Then we will win any race we run. More than winning we will cross any barriers, crush any obstacle and still be in control with a clear mind and purer soul. We have power that came along with some responsibilities. The option is upon us, to choose the grosser demand or the finer eternal happiness.
