Thoughts Vs. Actions
Having received an email saying that kerala Govt. had declared 19th June as 'Vayana Dinam', and my friend had started reading a new book, and dreaming...I had failed to realise it was 19th June, days were just fleeting....faster as thoughts.....I was just wondering, if it was worth dreaming...
There were so many questions haunting me during the last few days, and here is the answer that I got:
….have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present, you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.
Then I wonder, life is so short, how long, do I need to wait for my answers, then I realize, life is all about choices. Deeply fulfilled and highly actualized people simply make wiser choices than others. You can choose to spend rest of your days sitting on the shore of life in complete safety or you can take some chances, dive deep into the water and discover the pearls that lie waiting for the person of true courage.
..In the words of Theodore Roosevelt, ‘The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows in the end the triumphs of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.’
There is God in everything, every one...see, understand, act....I am so happy and Thankful now that I have now added a God Mother, and God Father.....AG so far yet so near & SS so near yet so far...., to the list of my support of family, friends and relatives...The newest, latest, and most wanted, who have been my SWOT....
Life is beautiful, nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm, ‘Wisdom is knowing what to do next, skill is knowing how to do it, and virtue is doing it,’ just like, our NS said this week 'coming together is the beginning, working together progress and staying together success’.
..In the words of Thomas Carlyle, ‘The end of man is an action and not a thought, though it were the noblest.’ The smallest of actions is always better than the boldest of intention.
Hey,, thats our VP's dialogue... :-)
