Life

Life, as per my dictionary, is a collection of memorable moments that you ever had. Its something that flashes back at you when u lie on your deathbed taking your last breaths.

Did u ever think that every moment of your life can be made memorable ? Were you too lazy to do so ? Or you were too busy earning the money that you might never use as per your wishes ?

I have seen people living for 70 - 80 years. And they are in such mental or physical state that they wish to die everyday. And I have also seen people who killed themselves as 40. Just because they have achieved(or atleast tried) everything in their life they wished, and they didn't have anything to live for anymore. Obviously the former(the longlives, as I may say) had a count in millions and the latter(the kinglives, as they deserve to be called) could be counted on fingers.

If I were to summarize the kinglives, they just had a attitude towards life that the longlives lacked. The longlives went with the blind flock of sheep and were resistant to change. The kinglives were the risktakers, and they were never stagnant. The kinglives knew very well that life is very much a synonym for change.

The kinglives have a motto in their life : If nothing in your life is changing, you are as good as dead. While longlives just had to say : Earn your bread, we'll think about it later instead.

Beware of your emotions

Human being is an emotional creature. So, like machines, he generally has a conscious rational state. But, unlike machines, he has a subconscious emotional state as well. This makes him an interesting creature. Because every task he does or situation he faces is under the possible influence of his subconscious emotional state. This in turn makes every event in his life not just an event but a trigger for a chain reaction of events.

Let us suppose, for an instance, that you made a mistake in your assignment today. Your boss calls you in and gives you what you deserve(pun intended). Just a few abuses and warning to kick you out on another malfunction.

You come to your seat and your junior irritates you with his regular doubts. You backfire at him for his lack of attention in his work. Your junior then gets a call from a bank for a credit card offer. The junior abuses him in a prominent tone and indirectly tells him to rot in hell.

You then get a call from your parents. You are pissed off and they can sense it from your voice. Your parents start introspecting that was it a bad decision that they enrolled you into engineering once.

Last but not the least, you call your girlfriend to shrug things off, and you find that she had just encountered a similar situation. And you become a sink rather than a source(in terms of Physics).

And all this just because of a trigger of your boss pushed in the wrong direction. He could have handled the situation otherwise and the world would have been a better place. So you have every chance to contribute to this world with every word you speak. Its your choice, in which direction you wish to push the trigger.

P.S. : The employee boss example was taken in order to correlate things with the majority...:P.
