THE HUNT FOR GREENER GRASS

NEITHER I AM HERE NOR I AM THERE
Beware that's the fate most of us at one time of the life or the other face.For the sake of clarity we all want greener pastures at least I want that.Presuming there is nothing wrong with it.Or is it? I Am here in one of the God's own land but my heart is filled with thoughts of things that i miss.When I am here in unit I want to be at home. At home I want to be with friends and feel miserable.So Neither I am here nor there.
Keeping the list going I want to do soldiering and then i want to have a comfortable time.I want to have financial freedom and at the same time seek true happiness with lots of money.Whatever that is?I want to be cool and calm and at times want to be aggressive.Anybody going through this page would feel how confused the person is.I agree it's really confusing.So the Grass is greener on the other side of the fence.That's what the wise men said.But still i crave for the grass across the fence.Not satisfied with the logic i saught an interview with HIM.I dreamed I had an interview with God.“So you would like to interview me?” HE asked.“What questions do you have in mind for me?”I was ready as Karan Thapar would be.“What surprises you most about humankind?...”God answered...
That they get bored with childhood they rush to grow up and then long to be children again.
“That by thinking anxiously about the future,they forget the present,such that they live in neither the present nor the future.”
"That they live as if they will never die,and die as if they had never lived.” Continuing the dialogue I asked... “As a parent,what are some of life’s lessons you want your us to learn?
”God replied with a smile To learn you cannot make anyone love you.What you can do is let yourself be loved.”“To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most but is one who needs the least.” " To learn how to forgive to learn how to love others and to learn that I am here always"
And i woke up I hope.
