I am sitting in my room and, with a tad more than a month to go for my college life to come to an end, I'm thinking. Thinking about the 'FUTURE', which nobody has seen, nobody can be sure of. What does our future have in store for us? We all want to know the answer, but are afraid of finding it out.
Five years ago when I had joined college, I knew that for the next five years I do not have to worry about my life, about the future. Because for the next five years I will be in this college. But, now the time has come to talk about it. Not because I want to, but because it has now become inevitable. I'm only 23, and I still don't know how much more will I have to walk. I'm not saying this because I'm frustrated with my life, but I'm saying this because I don't know what would happen next. The only thing certain in one's life is 'Death', and the only thing uncertain is 'Future'. Nobody knows what'll happen in the next moment, let alone net day or next week, etc. I also don't know what my future will be, where will I go, what will I do. We, as humans, like to plan out our future, but every time we plan something, there is that one per cent chance of those plans going astray. Why? Because we don't know for sure whether the plans will be carried out with success, or will they crumble to dust. This doesn't mean that people should stop thinking or planning about the future, but what they should not do is over-plan, over-think.
The road to, and of, future is a dark tunnel, which all of us, irrespective of who we are or what we do, have to walk through. We even don't know whether there'll be light or darkness at the end of this tunnel. But, we still have to go through this. It is often said that 'tomorrow never comes'. It is true to some extent, because when 'tomorrow' comes - it becomes 'today'. Do think about it, and stop fretting about the future. Stop thinking too much about something which is not in your hands. So, live in the present, live today as if it is your last day on this Earth, and I can assure you that when you go to sleep tonight, you'll feel as contended as a small baby who is unaware of any worldly pleasures.
we are the mortals on earth born with a purpose to live. death on that part is inevitable. but why should we worry on that part? life has its own offerings. so, its wise to live every moment with full momentum of excavating the pursuit of truth.
