Shadows chase.....

Someone rightly said always look at the sun , so you never see the shadows.
Life is full of drama and yes the script is not known and their is no stage prompter for it.Life's practicality is like a boxing game you are not declared defeated when you fall down but when you refuse to get up.As long as we do not forgive people who have hurt us, they occupy a Rent Free space  in our mind ... The same is with the bad memories, defeat and failure from past that haunt us. Our Hopes should be like Hair and Nails, no matter how many times they get cut , they never stop growing. Always Hope for the best however the bad situation may be. The best way to quote here -

Once Buddha was Travelling with a few of his followers.
While they were passing a lake , Buddha told one of the disciple "  I am thirsty. Do get me some water from the lake "
The disciple walked up to the lake. At that moment a bullock cart started crossing through the lake making the water muddy and turbid.
The disciple thought " How can I give this water to Buddha to drink."
So. He came back and told Buddha "The water is muddy. I don't think it's fit to drink."
After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake.
The disciple went back and found that the water was still muddy.
He returned and informed Buddha about the same.
After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back.
This time , the disciple found the mud had settled down and water was clean and clear.
So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha.
Buddha looked at the water , and then looked up to the disciple and said," See what you did to make the water clean. You let it be, and the mud settled down on its own , and you have clear water.
You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down.
It will happen effortlessly. "
Having Peace of Mind is not a strenuous job, it is an effortless process so keep your mind cool and have a peaceful life ahead with no shadows of muddy past chasing you.
Life is all about living for one another so live life to the fullest.
Relationships cannot be understood by the language of money because some investments ever give profit but they make us RICH
