I was watching Amitabh Bachchan's interview last night on NDTV.........that has no real connection with what i'm writing othr than being a thought in my head right now....don't know where this piece will end...
I've pictured myself....(many times)...with greying hair overlooking a blue ocean while sailing a yacht...or maneouvering a powerboat over rough seas...a greying skyline in the distance....but the blue ocean open to me...
I've pictured myself....(many times)....powering my way through cobbled streets somewhere on a side street in Italy, driving a red Maserati....
I've pictured myself...(many times)....sitting on the pateo....a clear summer day outside...reading a book with my wife by my side....looking at our children...or grandchildren playing out in front....
How important is it to visualize your goals? Should they be as clear as this brown text reads on the cream background...being read from some monitor... somewhere in the world...?
Should your visualization be driven by greed....avarice... by a need for self satisfaction....by a desire for peace... by a search for happiness...by the questioning that eventually finds you that treasure...what should you be driven by?
I don't know what i should or should not be driven by but i know that i am driven by what i often see myself doing....or being....in the future....i see myself saying and doing that and so much more....and yet... :) ....i find myself, whenever i have time to myself, questioning the very things that take up all my time...
Its so easy to get carried away doing the things that you think make you happy - right now. You go from day to day everyday...new years eve and what you did then, seems like yesterday - and yet it's already two months into the new year...what happened to those 'new year resolutions'....those vows of change...
New Year's eve is just another day...a reason to have a global party - not much else. It's a reason to draw ourselves away from the time consuming everyday things...time to start anew - for one day? It's a time to reassess wants, needs and desires - for one year?
Ten years have passed since i finished with my 10th std. I kept saying i'll go back to mysore and collect my school leaving certificate...but before i know it...ten years pass by and i'm on the verge of my 26th birthday...
I want to drive the Maserati...have a house on a hill...look out over a city from my office....but are all of these just pipe dreams?
Those new year resolutions....those unkept promises.... living a life day after day after day after day after day after day after day after day after day after day after year after year after year after year after year after year after year after....decades pass you by...and so does a lifetime..........and at the end of that lifetime...did you do enough....did you live....
did i live
