Life Full of Doubts…

"Life is at its weakest when there's more doubts than trust, But life is at its strongest when you learn how to trust inspite of the doubts."

Someone very special once shared this quote with me, and for some unknown or un-expressible reason it stuck by me forever.

We all are forced to feel insecure at most of the times in our lives. There are many moments when we feel lost and uncared for, but that is the time when we truly come to know what life really is? It is living without judging, without questioning; Living every moment what it is worth for, for once it is gone it can never be returned!!

Human beings are the most intelligent living species (As Told!!) still we are the weakest in every possible way. We have been so busy gaining materialistic heights and collecting things that we have forgotten the pleasures that we already have. Pleasures that watching a sunset brings in, pleasure that walking bare foot on sand brings, pleasure that a kids smile bestows on us… and many more…

WE are lost in the volumes of concrete and steel around us, we have forgotten to breathe in the open air. We all want to be successful and powerful; we all want the best of ourselves in terms of wealth and power, but does really being powerful is all that life is about???

Aren’t we all trapped and wish to break out, I’m sure we all want to change the way we live in most of the ways!!! But do we really try? If you are nodding your head to say “YES” hold it right there mate. We do try but only to change our comforts, either our power, success or materialistic gains; we never try to change what we REALLY want too. And what do I think that is?? Well on a very simple note that would be “Peace”. I’m not a humanitarian wishing for world peace and all. What I’m talking about it our OWN Internal Peace.

Take out some time. Open the window of your room (If you have one) look outside. See the sky above you, look at the people around you; Just watch them!!! Watch them do all that you would have been doing too at some or the other time.

Take a glimpse at your own self through the actions of others and imagine how you would have been reacting? Try it!!! At least Once.

Why do we feel so scared at times, scared of the loneliness? Have you tried spending a Saturday night all by yourself lately? And to the worse try telling a friend that you were all by yourself sitting in your room, doing nothing. I bet 98% would start asking, why were you sick, were you working, what was wrong!!! (I BET)

And to their amaze if you answered, “Nope just like that”, you should check out the expressions!!! Worth checking out!

We doubt everything, even something as simple as sleeping an hours extra on a weekday. What’s wrong with me, how come I slept an hour extra? Drinking too much water for no reason; I must we dried inside; I’m drinking like a camel.

What the heck, you slept an hour extra; you drank more than usual…it won’t kill you or anyone else!!! Just chill, stop doubting and questioning the world for that!!!

Simplest example to prove that WE ALL are in doubt no matter what!!!

Now, changing the view to life back again. What do I really mean by the very first quote of this journal.

“Trust”, the foundation of life, and “Doubt” the knife dangling over the thread of life. We all need to learn to trust without questioning.

Try loving someone without expecting nothing in return; and I mean NOTHING!!!

Answer this – have you ever denied your feeling for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle??

Again, just because we were in doubt we suppress our feelings. And this is not in relation to only Love, it happens in every transaction that we have with each other; our parents, our bosses, our friends, and even strangers. We are so overwhelmed with the excepted outcome of the transaction that most of the time we don’t even say it. We just sit back and wonder, what if?

Now answer this – Have you ever wondered which hurts the most; saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing and wishing you had?

Take a chance, life turns out to be what it is, only by the chances you take. Take a plunge without fearing about the broken bones.

Live this life to its fullest, for that’s ALL you have!!! Nothing more, nothing less!!
Remember until you do it you would never know what it could have been.

Throw all the doubts away (of every moment and thought) and just live!
