Ashes to Ashes, Dust to dust?

It was festival all around the globe. All the world leaders have gathered to witness the one time event. Thousands of curious people were flowing into the hospital every second. The best doctors around the World have been summoned. Prayers were being held in churches, temples and mosques. All TV channels had made their presence felt. The countdown was on and the World was watching. You were about to be born.

I know, nothing of this happened to you, unless you are prince Harry, sitting in a palace, reading my blog. It did not happen to me either. Hope, you are a bit happy now. All of us or at least most of us dream of such birth. but, It was not to happen. Instead, It was a lonely hospital room, in a small town, in presence of a doctor, who claims to have done his graduation, with only your father and mother to accompany you. One such guy, born in a much worse condition must have said, "You brought nothing into the World, You will take back none. So lead a peaceful life accordingly." Well, let me tell you what. This was a fucking thought to make men still lazier, when they were born lazy. This has made men lax and boring.

Did you bring nothing into the World? Who the hell is he to say that. You brought happiness into the World. If not for the entire World, at least into your family. You brought a brilliant brain that only has to be tuned to modern thinking. Your brought a warm smile, that could make a thousand foes, friends. You brought a beautiful mind, which always thinks of helping others. And you brought sixty years of life to live. Who said you brought nothing ? Some ugly duckling, who knows not, but to value materials.

"You brought nothing" and "You take away nothing" are stupid sentences, constructed by an idiot, to make you fell helpless, to get you scared. There were a pair used by some loner to save himself from his loneliness. It does not mean that, you brought nothing, if you can not exchange that for money. It is not valueless. It is invaluable. Be proud, for bringing merry into the World.

"And You take away nothing", is simply absolute bullshit. Two bullshits in a single sentence are too much even for a philosopher. Let me tell you what you can take away with you when you are gone. Respect, Affection, Loyalty, remembrance, innumerable experiences, unforgettable emotions, cherished memories, a good name, few brain and some good hearts. If not for money, fight for these when you are alive. You have a lot to earn.

Life is no school, to always stick to routines. Learn, grow, work, marry, give birth and give way, and of course eat and sleep all the way. Its an adventure. No rules and no routines. Venture untried territories, put you in unimaginable situations, experience everything you can and earn what you want, fight all the way.

At the end of the day, when you look back at your life, what it does matter is, if you are satisfied with your life, not others. Live for yourself and love others.

A buried seed does not come out of the soil to provide shade. It does come out to see the World by itself. On its venture, it does provide food and shelter. Come out to see the World, not just provide the shade.
