RED LIGHT
MENTALITY
Don’t take me wrong, here I mean
traffic red light
I don’t know what to say, whether
we are fortunate enough or unfortunate to be a part of a society where everyone
is in a hurry, each one of us running after something or someone, no one has
time to look around and enjoy the precious present.
“River know this: there is no
hurry, we shall get there someday”
A.A
Milne
What a great statement it is but
tell me how many of us really wait and carefully watch what happens around us.
I can tell you 99% of us are living in a red light mentality. Let me explain
little deeply we are a
generation in hurry. We live as if we have to reach somewhere & we don't
have enough time. The problem is not that we don't have time but that we don't
know where we are heading to. We start our journey in a calm manner but as we
grow up, we build a red-light mentality. Red light is a great idea to control traffic in our busy and crowded
roads but how many of us really enjoyed the red light, I guess no one. All of
us become impatient when we appeared in front of a red light traffic area
instead of stop there, relax a bit, enjoying the beauty around us and many more
things to do. I am sorry to say we all are running towards an unknown future
instead of enjoying the present.
I’ve
read somewhere written by an anonymous “All his life a man struggles to reach
the top of the ladder, and finally he does –only to discover, it’s against the
wrong wall”
According
to me speeding in life is like hurrying an orgasm, so wake up give little time
to yourself and enjoy the eternal beauty of such a wonderful world. Don't hurry
thinking that you have only one life. Enjoy because you have only one life.
At the end same million dollar question
what is life?
And the best answer I could find is “Life
is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I’ve got a hold
of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before
handing it on to future generation”
-/ George Bernard Shaw
