This is not a motivational story.. nor is it facts and arguments..
This is my belief..
When I was born, the Gods above must be very happy. For that is why they bestowed me with the best opportunities in my life. With the opportunities that they gave, they also gave me plenty of guidance and support from many people.
But one things is there. He did not make things easy for me. He never has. I have really not been the kind of guy who has managed to get things done with ease and in the smooth way. I have chosen, and walked the relatively difficult roads in life.
From being a mad lover for my work who dances to the music of his work, I have spent some days in sheer frustration and agony. On the road to revolution, I have faced crisis in all shapes and sizes. Loosing the people you love, care for and believe in is one of those days of gloom. The other days are when the clear picture that lay ahead becomes blurry.. There are those few days when life seems to fire a thousand questions at you and pushing you into answering.. when you.. would infact just like to work..
He tests..He who gives the opportunities tests.. he tests whether the man he gives the job to is worth the faith.. Like those age old mythological stories where the bhakt had to go through some hard times before coming face to face with the almighty.. Gods test us to see if we are worth being given the honour, the opportunity and the previledge of doling his great service.
For a man who chooses to walk the path less trodden, it is foolish to expect a smooth path. The very fact that you take an alternative road will ensure difficulties and pain. In those moments of gloom and agony when there is no ray of light in the far horizon, all we need to do is to keep walking.. we need to believe and we need to keep going..
There are few moments in life that matter. One of them is the moment you hit your goal. All agony and pain that the road inflicted upon you all the while crumbles and disappears when you hit the goal.. And for that one moment.. I am ready for the worse..
Team me.. build me and grow me oh Lord .. in times of darkness prepare me for light!
