A Sweet Memory

This weekend, I had a chance to visit mussorie and I did not want it to go in vain, just wanted to grasp the opportunity with my both hands. So I came to dehradoon, stayed along with one of my friend at his relative’s house..well I am the kind of the guy who usually does not prefer to go anyone’s house until and unless I have great level of intimacy with the person but I am really thankful to my friend because there I met with a lady who really taught me some great things about life, a very positive way of perception about life, something very inspirational, something very illuminating.


We humans are very condition conscious…if all the things go in our favor, we just enjoy, but if in any case it does not , then we just cease our movement, blame to God. Very less no. people maintain their positive attitude at that time also… we lose all our hopes, forget all whether it be our responsibilities or the people whose smiles are attached with our smile, just finish ourselves.. but here I met with this lady , saw her way of perception and it really impressed me.

Lady, whose husband died five year before in a road accident. He left a daughter and lady in his family. He was the only breadwinner of his family. After death of her husband, she got many hands to support her, offer to live with her relatives etc, but this lady did not compromise with her self-respect.. thought to live her life in her own way. So this lady joined job in his husband’s office which was offered by government..started to live along with her daughter and to get some more financial security, started a side business too. The tragedy which was faced by her, could not be able to stop her from dreaming and setting a new goals for her life. I have seen many ladies who after death of their husband do not be able to come out from the tragedy..but this lady really turned round the things. The lady started to work properly in the office and side by side on her business too…now today, her business is running on good condition..the best part is that along with doing all these things, she manages her home very well too. Those mother-daughter are the best friend of each-other..the lady knows all the things which are going on in her daughter’s school or in her dance classes and the daughter knows all the scenario of her mother’s job and business. In her(lady) busy schedule of office and business, she has a time to watch movie along with her daughter, she has time for her daughter’s dances etc . The lady is enjoying her life perfectly along with her daughter…set a new set of ‘amway’..and would definitely achieve all…my best wishes are with her.

So this was the story, which I saw this weekend… but what I learnt ,was something more than it..you know we people always get 100 reasons to smile and one reason to be sad..but we ignore those 100 reasons, we just think about that single reason.. which is sufficient enough for disturbing us, just taking us away from our goal, our responsibilities. I am not saying that we should not bother about that single reason.. no, not all..we must care about that single reason, must learn a lesson from that phase (which is the actual reason behind every sad phase of the life)..but must not bring stoppage in our life.

You know the best and the worst part about the time is the same..and it is “ it never stops”..it just goes on and goes on and the same is with life too…so when all the things are going on..then why should we stop..we must move ahead, must dream ahead.

If someone special (whether it be your father or mother or sister or other) went away from your life and if then, you cease moving ahead then it is surely the insult of the love, care that you had from that person. It is surely the insult of wonderful relation that you had with that person.. you know, the person does not go anywhere , his/her soul always remain somewhere around you.. just to see what you are doing actually. Now the person has gone then it is your time now..take your responsibilities, apply the things what you actually learnt from that person, spread the love what you actually had from that person.

That lady taught me to seek happiness in every lovely moment we live.. and learn a lesson in every bad moment we face. The lady taught me how to be positive in every phase and how to dream ahead.

We people dream something and if it does not fulfill, it just cause poignant in our life..but this lady taught me “ believe in your dreams” and improve yourself to achieve your dreams..and even if you don’t get your dream then also you have improved now.. which itself is a quite big achievement, a real sense of achieving of your dreams…and this reason is sufficient enough to bring smiles on your face.

Life is journey and in this journey we meet with many people…so enjoy meeting with each and every person…move along with those people till the destiny takes you both..and the best part about this journey is that at the end of each journey either you would be having sweet memories or a very good lesson so either a reason to move ahead or a reason to start all over again..but you would have something and that’s for sure.

So after this trip, my positive attitude which was deteriorating, came back and I just remembered my journey till now and I realized that after each phase of journey, I really had something..either it was sweet memory or a very good lesson but I had something, the real reasons to move ahead..:)
