My Zen Moments

We keep making plans for future as if we are going to live forever but the truth of life is we may never know when is our last moment going to be. and when we may never be opening our eyes again. We go away but the world still keeps going on, life continues all around, over a period of time even our loved ones move on from our loss. So what's the point of getting stressed out so much in life. I take my own example, I keep setting big goals for myself, but then sometimes I also wonder, what if they are not achieved in my life time, will it make any difference? Possibly not, because they are my goals, probably a little benefit may pass on.

Then sometimes I also think, is life all about achieving these goals, what if I do not do anything and just live very calmly and contended with myself, how is it going to impact my karma. Am I supposed to do these things or is it just my obsession of getting it done. Too many questions and for some of them there will never be any answers because what lies on the other side of the veil no one knows. Those timelines at work that we missed and feeling stressed out because of it, the holiday we could not take because of lack of money and feeling sad about it, the relationship that did not work and feeling lonely because of it. All these circumstances of life are trying to teach us something.

Possibly the lesson is very simple and it can be about not getting obsessed with situations of life but we all the time make it complicated by becoming over ambitious with life. But then because of some people becoming over ambitious in life we are able to achieve big things in life and make progress. It's just about last night, me and my son were having discussion about the way ahead, what all we want to do, and at the end we realized that we were becoming too ambitious with our plans. In the bargain I was thinking what am I going to miss or lose out on, and if all of that is necessary for life or is it just my obsession.

We earn money to spend, and then we want to earn more to spend more, things just keep going in circles, and the cycle never stops. Some day we will go away, leaving all of it behind and nothing will matter, so then why are we always obsessed about all of these material things. I guess, that's human nature and that's how we are made
