SUNDAY 27TH JUNE, 2007
Good Morning friends and Hola, wherever you are. It's me again trying to have a shot once more at my blog.My dear friend asked me what is actually life, and what is true love. I guess ( I will post a conversation between a Cyber friend and myself on this separately in the NEWS section) if you consider religion, then life is all about coming here for a purpose, pre-ordained and predetermined.
Our destiny being permanently programmed, rules set and fixed, an amount of intelligence encoded inside our brain, and some room set aside for us to be able to make up decisions and judgment to follow the rules or not to obey.
Life would then be very simple. Why, because everything would either be important and significant, or trivial and inconsequential. Either we would go to heaven, or we would go to hell. The decision would rest with the Higher Authorities somewhere in the vast yonder of truth.
However, things did not prove to be that simple. For, many of us were also born with some talent or the other. To really give true meaning to life, then the real test is to pursue whatever talent we have.
That means if anyone of us is a painter, or a writer, regardless of the fact that you take the world over by storm, your duty in this life is to make the best use of the talent that which with you have so wonderfully been consecrated.
If you have been blessed with a talent, then it is your obligation to this life (or world) to ensure that you try your very best
I think whatever we do in this world, it carries some level of 'care' with it. This level of care ensures the difference or gives true meaning to the word 'love'. While you would be very happy to see Federer (if you love tennis and love Federer), you would be happier if your child, or sibling or friend was the true champion.
A different example would be like if you love a person. What makes him or her different from other people, say, in terms of sex, comfort, companionship, jealousy, etc. Again, the want, comfort, sorrow or hurt is more, because the level of care differs here.
Therefore, the more the level of care, the more the level of love. And True love would carry the highest level of care that one could have for the other person.
If care had, say, ten levels, then True Love would fall on the scale of ten, if ten was the highest. However, is there such a thing that could carry such a high level of care?
A friend of mine told me about an SMS she had received recently. I am quoting the path that made sense to me"Your fate determines who walks into your life. You decide who stays and who walks out."
I think in terms of care, anyone who scores 6 and above would be the one who would stay and below that would be the one you will let go. So, if love is not strong enough, I guess, then you would be able to let go of that person, and sigh, probably that would be in the lower levels of care.
The hot weather has broken through and now till the end of October, it will be sheer hell in Dubai. But, can you believe this, mostly all fights are booked choc-a- bloc, and even business travelers are finding it difficult to find seats in and out. I think life is getting too fast and complicated. Perhaps this is how another set of rule sets in. I guess that has to do a lot with fractionally old age jumping in on you when you least expected it. Got to go now, and I hope that life shines sunlight's of hope and happiness to each and everyone of you, wherever you are. Best of luck
