Expectations & Compromise


"Experience is the greatest of all Teachers"
Life provides us with unthinkable situations that we never dreamed of, ever.
Its like a dream, where you find yourself in circumstances that you have never even thought of, at places that you have never even seen or been to.

Only life is the one that teaches you everything. Your parents can only pay your fees at schools, the teachers can only make you hold the pen & paper properly, but its all in your hands what you wana make out of that.

Its like the case of a matchstick that can be used to lit up candles symbolizing the ray of HOPE and even pyres are set ablaze with the same.

"God is the best player of our Life"
He knows about all of our needs. He provides us with opportunities to do all things in life either good or bad. Its in our own hands to grasp or loose them. In the end, we can never blame Him.

"Dream it, Deserve it & Achieve it"
All of us dream about our desires to be achieved but we forget to first being able to deserve them. God never wants His children to get pampered. I think He follows the Chinese proverb:

"Give your child a fish & you feed him for a day,

Teach him fishing & you prepare him to feed himself for the whole life"

If you ask something from God & He fulfills your desires at the same time, who will worship Him then? Every damn thing in this world has its own value but it needs to be realized.

"Dream, Desire & Responsibility"
You dream of something and you desire something else, is it so? If yes, you will never achieve it, until or unless your dream and desire are one & the same.

But unfortunately, most of the times when these both get together, a third concept also arises like a villain in a romantic love story, by the name of Responsibility.

Your responsibility towards your parents who are the ones who made you capable of dreaming & desiring, towards your profession for whose sake your parents did everything they could, towards your well-wishers who want to see you succeed in every sphere of life.

"The Climax"
As there are so many expectations from you by so many people. Since you are also bound to them, if you know that you cant handle all your dreams, desires & responsibilities in a single hand, then the most difficult concept of life arises. I even fear of naming it as its a very simple word to be mentioned of but extremely hard to be followed but I'll have to mention it here as no one can escape reality, its COMPROMISE.
Compromise with your dreams, your own desires, your own friends but most importantly, compromise with your own self.

How can you compromise with the one you love more than yourself, that too for your parents or well-wishers whom you know very well, will not be there with you for your whole lifetime?

I mentioned it as most difficult because my eyes got full of tears while only writing the previous line.

Ironically, last night, while going through two of my syllabus books, one by an Indian & the other by a foreign author, I noticed that the Indian dedicated his work to his parents while the foreigner, to his love.

I could understand that Indians are the most responsible people, they dont love their own selves & their families, they dont fall in love rather they are not supposed to do so, they are the best while compromising, the foreigners are not responsible, they dont care for their parents and they never compromise.

I am ready to compromise if my God promises that my parents will remain with me all through my lifetime & die after me and I really wish this comes out to be true.

Am I correct in my understanding and my decision, please let me know?
Also, cant all of our dream, desire & responsibility go hand in hand?

But before concluding, I dedicate this content & even my everything else (either on or away from this blog) to the one I love even more than my hearts content.
