Was thinking about a matter from the past few days. An incident that struck me..even tough its a very common one now-a-days..but dont know why? Few days back i went to a studio for some work over there I found a little girl posing for kids wear..she was so cute went and hugged her...she was so so so sweet hardly the age of 6 years...had a great time watching her give cute and innocent poses. After she went away I came to know a bitter true about her life..her father had committed suicide a year ago,her mother is working as a baby sitter and she performs such modelling..they are very needy...I dont know what I was feeling at that moment...i really dont...i was just silent at that moment and tried to find some answer as to why people do this?...but just couldnt...at that moment i was only recollecting the innocent moment I enjoyed with the little girl...does she really understands the absence of father at this age? How will she react as she grows up? What will she answer others when,will be asked as to how her father died? why ?What is the judgement of God?
Kept on thinking this very incident for the past few days...why do people run away from their responsibility? Its not necessary that our life will be smooth all the time...! yesterday had a lazy day so decided of reading books...so after searching choose the one that was gifted to me by my friend- Robin Sharma-Discover Your Destiny...started reading the book completed an entire chapter...it is a complete inspirational book, from the first chapter itself it boosts ones confidence. The author himself writes in the first chapter that He once tried to commit suicide when he found that his wife left him together with his children, but certain sort of force stopped him...he just couldnt commit suicide.
The author quotes a true saying of osho
Life does not listen to your logic;it goes on its on way,undisturbed.
You have to listen to life, life will not listen to your logic...
I feel that people committing suicide are coward they dont have the ability to face the bad side of life...as stated in the book , there are season to our lives and painful time never lasts..
"trust that the winter of sorrow will yield to the summer of your joy, just as the brilliant rays of the morning always follow the darkest part of the night"...
I feel if anyone sees life like this then that individual will never say "I dont find a way out" in case of problems or sorrow... We often feel that the problems that we face are the biggest one ,no one else can face such a problem. But if anyone thinks and sees properly then we will find that our suffering is nothing compared to others...
Few days before KBC had showcased such problem...in their special episode dusra mauka , were they gave chance to a widow of a farmer to earn some money that will help her in someway...her husband was a farmer who committed suicide because of the debt..but she inspite of loosing everything was still able to lead her life with her children...she had to face many problems but she was able to overcome it...did her husband even think once that what would his family face due to his desicion? KBC, hats off for giving a second chance to these needy people.
Through these write up I would only like to request and suggest that ending up the life is not the solution...ending life is a sign of a looser and not a winner...by commiting suicide we tend to run from our responsibility...we forget how the soldiers are fighting for our lives at the cost of theirs...we should try to develop the courage within ourselves to fight with the odds..when we can welcome happy moments in our life so properly then why cant we also welcome the odds...I know its easy to say but hard to perform...but if everyone keeps on thinking this then this problem will never end...we have lost the capability to try out something new...we always try to be under the shelter...we get afraid when any change enters our life...we tend to fail with new changes...and for some they choose the solution of suicide...
Some might think that I am quite small to comment on the hardship of life..but the fact is I will also grow to that age someday were I will have to face hardship of life...I atleast will never want to end my life in such a way, running away from responsibilities...I want to grow confidence and enough courage within me to welcome the odds of my life as I do in case of happy moments...bless me GOD, bless me elders...
I would like to earnestly request all the individuals of this country to avoid this solution...suicide is not the solution...its a way that depicts failure...a little suggestion if possible read the books of Robin Sharma....they are truly inspirational...
I would like to end the write up by stating a line from the book itself-
"Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know"
Its not easy when you face the reality. But it surely catches up with all of us. So no need to take life so seriously, no one has got out it alive. I will recommend a good read to u ,Veronica decides to die - Paulo Coelho. It changed my perception to an extent. Well written Sis, cheers
ReplyDeleteHave no words.... Life teaches us a lot of things.... there are some incidents which are out of our control... But hey Showing Courage, confidence and a lovely smile is in our hands... If a person is able to smile at his/her problems then no problem can ever make him/her sad...

Good outlook! I would go even a step further. Yes these people are cowards but the biggest cowards are the people around them who SEE their helplessness and do NOTHING about it!!!
