What really drives you?

What it is , that really moves you everyday? While you are in the bed and in a comfortable, enjoyable sleep early in the morning, what makes you really wake up and leave all the comforts of bed and early morning sleep. Is it your habit? Do you wake up early? Is there any strong reason behind leaving the bed early? Is there any commitment that you've made with yourself, or with some one dear to you, your beloved one, or is there a duty call? You have to rush for a job, otherwise you'll be fired. Is there any strong internal motivation that drives you everyday, or you are just being pulled away by the fact that you don't get food if you do not get up from bed. Have you ever tried to solve the mysterious equations of love? Do you really find love mysterious? Are you seeking God's companionship in your life? Do you really think that not getting up early is your weakness? How can you turn your weakness into your strength? All these questions are and need not be answered until you know what really moves you everyday. Because that's where lies the answers of all the above questions. I have always found difficulty in leaving a book mark while reading a book, I always forget to make a mark when interrupted, and that was bothering me for a long while. But now I have discovered the strength part of it. When i am not leaving a book mark, every time after a break when restart reading, I always have revision of the topics i already read. And when I found that I left here last time. By the time the already read part gets more clearer in the mind. And now it never bothers me. Because if i believe that i m going to read this book fully, (I decide this by reading first 50-100 pages) I never feel that I should not read the parts which I already read, but on the other hand I should enjoy all the parts. Not to worry about leaving a bookmark.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi

What can I say about him? I am here to study how he developed himself and rose to the level of greater altitude from a common, platform which was shared by all the leading people who lived in his time and lead this country towards the path of independance, home rule. When he was insulted by a ticket checker in the train to Pretoria in South Africa I think that was the turning point in his life. The seed was ploughed in his mind that was going to be the huge banyan tree in the form of Movement of Freedom. I firmly believe that the instances in life which challange your basic human rights, will lead you further in life and always have a deciding role in your life. When your Self Respect is hurt badly, your ego fights back thinking that this is a war for survival, but actually it is not merely a war for survival but the process through which Mohandas becomes Mahatma, Narendranath becomes Swami Vivekananda. I think that there is a little bit of Narendranath and Mohandas lives in all of us. But something stops us from becoming Swami or Mahatma, we need to find that, and work on that.

Hello World,

This is my first ever post in the world of WEBLOGs and I am really very excited, never thought of doing something like this. I started writing personal journal when I was 12. I wrote continuously for about 10 years on special occassions some times without any occassion. And I found it to be a very good tool to help myself define the path of the future, whatever I wrote was straightaway going into my subconcious and perhaps what I am today is the fruit of those early days of diarywriting. Since my childhood I have always been a language lover. Have read a few books and was quite confident about my future doings in life. But after I passed out from college, I was so into survival that I forgot what's life is all about. Now that I have reached a level where I can really think , recreate things and give this world back with the added value . I have always followed my instincts (consiously or unconsiously) through out my 31 nos. of rotations completed around the star SUN. The payback time has come. I am a Debtor. And seriously I am in a mood to increase the number of people who'll cry when I die.
