LONELINESS....

DISCLAIMER: The views expressed in this post are entirely personal, any reference to it would get u entirely nostalgic!!

I was just wondering what the difference is between a contented, satisfied person and a lonely successful person and it didn’t took me long to figure out that its that “someone” that makes your life complete which makes all the difference. In this modern cosmopolitan atmosphere we come across so many people, socially, personally and professionally. But its just a handful of them that we strike instant chemistry with and perhaps only one or two that come close. Its really hard to imagine life in full circle in which people come, go ; even success comes and shines low after sometime but we as human beings with an incessant thirst of ”more” always crave and ignore things as they come and being a hypocrite ,preach otherwise. Many of us would have found “the one” in our early phases of life but showing our true human being characteristics ignored them in a thirst for something else seeming more cherishable that time or maybe even hoping to find a better” one” later. But trust me on this, success, money, happiness don’t form a cluster of togetherness every time. There are times when u are professionally rewarded (success), have a fatter bank balance but essentially miss happiness more so because u miss “the one” .The one that u perhaps had some time back, the one that u ignored bcoz of your irresistible temptation for other things and one that is now gone and gone forever. It feels terribly disappointing and frustrated when u have everything u ever wanted but the person whom u wanted it to share with. Moral of the story is “When u find your true companion, which I call “the one” just stand by him/her, have trust & work hard in your life .You’ll some day realize that when you achieve success that may be measurably less that what u may have otherwise got, it would be rather more qualitatively cheerful and satisfying .Therefore in essence, success for me is a combination of health, money and relationship all having equal weightages and priorities.

“To ignore them takes a fool - plz don’t do that to yourselves.”

Hmmm.....nice thought. But i still do not get it. I have never faced this temptation of letting go for a chance of getting a better one. Either you love or you dont. There is no middle way. So maybe you still need to wait for 'the one'. But when such a person will come,their will be no doubts in your mind and you would know that she is the one.

Nice blog Ashsish..... Watever u hv written is so true. Many people hurt or end up losing the ones who care the most for them in d search for success, career n so on.

Most of us learn things d hard way in life.But one thing is true if u hav lost d person u feel was "the one" then believe me he/she was not the one for you cuz when "the one" walks into ur life he/she is there to stay forever :) so keep the faith going !!
