There are times when you feel so low and everything around seems so dull, colorless , lacking energy and every other sentence spoken by every other human being around sounds negative. Such times you want to sit alone in a dark corner of your room, sitting by the window peeping outside, but looking inside into yourselves, trying to get some strength out of your own self . The enthusiasm you feel is lacking ,is lost, your heart yearning to find it from somewhere, from someone.

And in such times there is always an energy trying to burst out from within our souls, telling us to keep fighting, we being our own competitors, we being our own critics and GOD being our utmost dear friend.

May be in one of such times that i have faced, this is something my heart told me, to give me the power i was lacking, some day about two years back–

मन हार मत, मन हार मत, तुझे जीत की ओर है बढ़ना
मन हार मत, मन हार मत, तुझे ख़ुद से ही तो है लड़ना

मन जीत का फूल खिला उपवन में,
देख तुझे है मुस्काता
तू देख फूल को , समझ ले भाषा ,
अपनी ओर है तुझे बुलाता

तोड़ न उस फूल को तू
तोड़ते ही मुरझा जाएगा
बन भंवरा तू बैठ हृदय पर
फिर ही उसका रस ले पायेगा

मीठा हो या कड़वा हो ,मन लक्ष्य वही है तेरा
जिसका रंग सुनेहरा सा है, सोना सा चंचल सा

मन हार मत मन हार मत तझे कांटो से है लड़ना
पर कोशिश कर तू दोस्त बना ले, सीख ले काँटों पर भी चलना…

तो देख, खुदा है इंतज़ार में
तेरी जीत के इंतज़ार  में….

क्यों घबराता है रे मन , जब खुदा की भी वही मर्ज़ी है
जो  चाहत तेरी है …..!!!!

I read it smwhere–>

Great opportunities come to all,

but most people do not know they have met them,

for opportunities don’t come with their values stamped upon them.

Each day dawns ,quite like other days ,

in it a single hour comes ,

quite like other hours,

but in that day and in that hour ,

the chance of the lifetime faces us.

Thus , face every opportunity of  life thoughtfully

and earnestly when they come,

whether open-faced or disguised.

True , life is a curve , the sinusoidal one , with curves that take you up and with curves that take you down. In the low times we work hard to reach to the upper side of it and as we reach up we slide down to the lower one .

This is a joy ride.

This is a joy ride, called LIFE  ;)

Haffun riding it :)
