recently, while reading Paulo Coelho's Like a Flowing River...i read a piece titled 'how to climb a mountain'...its a nice lil article (or watevr a non-short story of that length is called!) which lists out d various steps one should take to climb a 'mountain'...n the best part bout Coelho is dat he makes you think...rather, he makes ME think...n think i did!... was pretty disturbed too...coz i couldn't even identify my mountain, much less try to climb it!! so wat did i do in this 'pretty disturbed' state? got into my rajaaii n 'thought'... :) lotsa things were going through my mind then (like always)...one of them was a conversation with someone...and a question that was almost haunting....'have you decided what u want to do?' ........
ah! der i go again....dis sounds like a few months ago...("where to..?")...but no...dis story ends on a happier note! i figured out that i have to choose my 'mountain'...and it's upto me to either choose one that'll take a lifetime to achieve, or one that i can get to in a shorter while, so that i can plan climbing the next! so, even though i still don't have any answers to all the what-do-you-WANT-to-do-in-life questions...i know that it's okay to not know...for me it is! there are people who are passionate about something...one thing that drives their entire being. Me...i'm not in their league...i can't point to any one thing i'm passionate about...but i am amused by a lot...and i'd like to believe that i'm curious about a lot too...stories fascinate me...people fascinate me...animals...colours...trees...life...food...photos...gadgets of all kinds...songs...poetry...
SO the point IS...itna kuch hai jeene ke liye...fir kyun maksad ki khoj mein jee jalayein? :)
