so I choose you to speak to, like that of the movie "Forrest Gump".. If you have watched it, you will remember how the Hero of the movie kept on narrating his story to anyone, without asking the listener's interest.
"Dying was a part of life...." as told by Forrest Gump's mother.
You may wonder why I started talking of dying. But I was surprised, when I looked a bit deeper into the sense of the words..
Every moment dies with the arrival of the new moment. Our memories dies out with the passing time, my friend, who once upon a time, was dead against of my turning towards any other friend in the group, when we talked together, today replies over phone, "Hey I am busy, may I call you up later".... are not those emotions dead now, that once was full of life at a phase of my life?
The dreams we once had for our future are dead now. We have accepted the life as it has came to us. We live in the world of continuous death and but we are still afraid of such a death to witness, which we will never be able to talk about later on.
It's others to feel that death, so why do we worry about it. Better we keep enjoying the life we have, up to its fullest, live it the way we want it. What is the point of dying everyday, with the thought of that forth coming death. We can not deny that, but at least we can face that with a heart which has fulfilled all his desires and now contended to accept the death of the body. Is not it?

wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI am overwhelmed by this well expressed thought of yours, while saying hey see she is speaking the truth live it, live it every second as time passed will never return, but at the same creating fear and doubt - to live, laugh, dare, change..............
ReplyDeleteFEAR !! :-), Very recently I have responded to a blog of Candida about fear..
ReplyDeleteHere follow what I have written there.
"Really, Fear is a strange feeling that drains out all the courage from each and every pore of the body and the mind. But, we should not allow this to happen, we must defeat fear to carry our life forward to the greater level. I have always tried in my life, to overcome any kind of fear. I had a fear for the deep water and I did overcome this by learning how to swim. I fear of bad people in the society. Hence, I carry a knife with me when ever I go out and try to overcome my fear. I believe that all kind of fear (it's a problem) have a solution. We should not keep living with the fears. We must find a way to overcome it, keep walking past our fears one by one."
VERY WELL SAID AND WRITTEN...ITS TRUTH...IT's reality of the present day world,and thoughts of death are very beautifully intricated with practical example of " new moment" & "emotions".. but in the end its written that we should face death with contended heart for this i ll like to convey that bieng contended itself is a start of death,so i think we should defy death by not bieng contended but by bieng more demanding towards life means we should keep chasing our dreams and in this process may be we will forget about death and fear of death..may be..
ReplyDeleteYup, very true. I agree.
ReplyDeleteI beg to differ slightly in content and the reason is : Moments dont die out
ReplyDeleterather they transform and sublimate to memories. So in absolute or relative
sense it is about transformation and evolution of one state to another and not
death, as death etymologically means a full-stop/pause. Chronologically
every being and becoming is part of the consistent and constant evolutionary
process that technically speaking is an upgration of the earlier version. Life is
all about mastering the survival instincts and techniques. We defy and stand
above death in our daily existence and it signifies even if we are aware of the
ultimate harsh reality we dont meekly yield to it. we tower over the tide and
tower tall and look straight in to the face of death and chuckle. Its like
seemingly though we appear to be engulfed by death itself we dont embrace it
without fighting. A fighter (though arimethetics of life could mean a loser) is still a winner. Having a spine to fight or combat the daily exacting demands of life is a winning process per se. Perhaps those demands keep us little busy and selfish.
However "just not returning a call properly" feeling is too early to say that the
past dreams of togetherness is defunct now. Could not we be a wee bit
Quixotic to say past dream has metamorphosed to a better dream as the past
dream seen together could have given you a little spark of happiness of
escapism from the daily drudggeries of life...it had given you something to
temporarily cheer about and thats what is life.. hoping against hope and be
cheerful about and life is too short or little to be sad about anything.. Also the
dream must have over the period of time evolved to be a better dream tinged
with a dash of realism .. of course the co-traveller/way-farer of the dream
could have been replaced.. and again that's what is evolution/adaptbility all
about.. So rather we need to look forward to life with great hope enthusiasm
and cheerfulness and not through the narrow prism of death.. its just a
temporary pause before a journey of higher end and pursuit begins...
Also there isnot and there never should be a contented heart.. Contentment or
happiness is all about spreading happiness.. not keeping it confined to self..then it
becomes selfish.. End of the day how many happy heart i leave behind should
be the guideline and criteria for acceptance of bodily death... Mostly we dont
fear death but worry about how many things are left behind the schedule
undone before willy nilly resigning to the in-escapable/inevitable..
Reallistically all great people with a tag of immortality attached to their ex-id
cards have defied death squarely and stood tall beyond death... So we need to
have a little cheerful hindsight and laugh over the momentous moments and
not as a resignation of past but as a sublimation of past "fare forward oh my
co-traveller"...
The pursuit should persist as the desire dies ...
Also lets upgrade our versions with better anti-virus/firewall system :-))
wow.. such a nice, well phrased expression. Good to read your thoughts and thanks for sharing your substantial views.
ReplyDeleteHey Mam...I like your thoughts very much as it seems to me that I am hearing myself from somewhere.But the problem is I didn't feel myself free to express my these feelings like you...and reality is I want to express.
