A well of Wishes....

Today I was going through a Facebook wall of a friend. One message on her wall got my attention and after reading the message I was just amazed to realize that how we can connect our virtues, our qualities with components of nature, particles of this universe.

“Ret bhi na jaane kitni pyassi he…. Uski pyas na samundar ka paani bhuja paata he aur nahi hi baarish ka paani”

The status was so simple yet beautiful. When we put a human being in place of Sand and wishes as the thirst then we realize the depth of this message . Our wishes are just like the thirst of sand. Just like it, our wishes are unlimited. Once we achieve something, we already starts thinking about the next milestones. We buy a bike today and start thinking about how to buy a car. There are plenty of such people out there who are never satisfied with what they have or what they have achieved.

I am not saying that it is wrong to strive for something more. But should there be a limit to it? I know it is necessary to be thirsty to keep the pace with the society, to achieve new heights in life. But don’t you feel that it kills the joy of the success, thirst to fulfill the never ending wish makes you tired.

No one has seen the bottom of the well of wishes. No one know how deep he/she will have to go to in that well to reach the level of satisfaction, but the question still remains open is “whether we should define the limits to our wishes or we should stay thirsty, stay foolish and just follow the route to fulfill one wish after the other..?”

- jAI...
