Past and Future

The dilemma of humans is quite interesting when it comes to the life. We all strive for things we do not have and we tend to forget when we have it. Its not intentional, its mere our idiosyncratic behaviour. Every one of us envisages a certain way to be in this world. We all have likes and dislike, we have different opinion of similar thing, and we have different preferences in life. But all in all the want to have options we can chose from for the best make so much commotion in every day life. The standards we set for ourselves to be happy or not, are the one make us happy or not. Interestingly, we tent to forget that basic purpose of life and tent to become so selfish and keep the unrealistic view of happy life. We all envy the lives of celebrities, but if we look at the history and behaviour of the celebrities, most of them have behaviour disorder and many are trying to by happy by using drugs. Well the whole idea revolves around why we are here. Past, present and future is another interesting phenomenon. We keep on clinging to past, we keep on dreaming of better future and our present just goes by in front of us. Sometimes it confuses me, and I am lost with the meaning and the purpose of life. Every one is living in their own world and every body has different meanings of life. Some only enjoy the time they have, some keep on looking for higher purpose of life, some keeps the daily routine going, some keeps on struggling for better, and some like me are lost in the purpose of life. Whether the future is what we struggle for to make it better? What went wrong in past? How can we make present pleasant?

Sometimes irony of life and confusion of thinking power may let us envy past, be frustrated in present and future scares the bloody hell out of us…… Yes it is irony and we have to learn to laugh at it…… After all we have control over nothing…
