Few days back, I was with my best friend seating in a
restaurant and boozing with him, there was 2 reasons for the booze one was his
birthday and other was my sad day, and there were many other reason for boozing.
But I realized, actually there wasn't any reason as such, for boozing we just
needed to booze so we created the reason.
While enjoying our drink the conversation continued between
us and my friend came out with his philosophical thoughts and feelings, and he
started.
“Life is target Ashok”. I asked him “why are you saying so?”.
He continued “Ashok we all are living with aims, hopes and Targets and I live
with my life, my own target created by my fate. There are 2 type of target one
set by us and one set by our fate. And I set my fate by my own, I have set few
target for myself such as buying a flat which I did, now I have set one more
target to marry my sister to a good and well settled family. Once we are
complete with one target automatically another target is set by default and we
have to abide with fate of the target”,” Ashok in life disease doesn’t kill us
our target does that, we are busy with our target so much that we forget
everything related to our health and diseases are attracted automatically to
us”
After hearing Amit’s last 2 sentences
my all hangover just vanished and I was sober again. He continued further by
justifying each and every word and sentence came out of his mouth.
Target for life is not only created when we start to
understand the world but it starts right from the day when we come to this
world. Once we are born the target starts, target to get feed and get healthy,
target to start walking, target to start speaking, target of learning, target
to understand what we learn, target to go to school, target to make friends,
target to sustain friendship, target to pass school life, to graduate, to make
carrier, to get settle, to get marry, to raise children, to fulfill their
needs, etc etc etc. and it goes on, the same way till we close our eyes permanently.
Some targets are set for us by someone and some are set by us, but there is
always next target ready once you achieve one.
But all this process of setting target one target always
stays with us that is to make everyone happy and be happy, no one should not
get hurt by me and I sustain that happiness throughout my life till I die, this
is the main target of life we all are have been following.
After all this philosophical conversation by Amit, we were sober and all
our hangover just vanished like spirit, and we both together set a one more
target for that moment, target of getting high again and we ordered Mc Dowell whisky with fish koliwada
and surmai and achieved our target.
But while having a sip of drink and enjoying the appetite his
whole conversation was circling around my head. Amit’s word and thoughts were
so simple and clear but had very deep meaning. In jobs we fear of the targets
and try to run away from it but we never thought that in life we have already
some target and we will do anything to achieve it we never fear for that.
With all this conversation with Amit I have realized one
great thing of my life that “ LIFE IS TARGET= ROPE OF DEATH, WHICH IS TANGELED
AROUND OUR NECK ITS KILLING US AND ITS UP TO US WHAT YOU CHOOSE. DIE
SUFFOCATING OR DIE ENJOYING EVERY MOMENT OF THE TARGET”
This article is dedicated to all my sweets target that I
have achieved in my life MY FRIENDS “MY AMIGOS” thank you all for being part of
my life…….
