what is life???
well...life is some kind of a gap between wat u want and wat u get and how u adjust to the gap.Life is a kaleidoscopic spectacle;it is not an escalator but a ladder.The true measure of life is how u lived and not how much u lived.It is the breadth of life that counts and not the length of life.We r all travellers in this odyssey of life and each one of us has a destination.We all reckon that we will get happiness on reaching our destination.Here,we make a mistake.We account happiness as a pot of gold or treasure waiting for us to grasp.Happiness is not a destination but a mode of travel.Happiness is one's own creation.The path laid down for us to reach our destination is an adventure.We must enjoy the adventure and face the challenges with courage.Death is the ultimate destination of life.It is the holiest inspiration of eternal life.One must seek happiness in the clolours of the rainbow,the chirping of the birds,the laughter of the waves,the flares of the fire,the kiss of the breeze and above all in the innocent looks of a child.This is the happiness which will accompany one's heart till the end of his or her voyage.

Life (not in the biological sense, I mean in human dimensions.) has no purpose, no end. It’s about living. Every experience that you have to go through leaves you with fresher outlook. It changes a bit of who you are, your experiences, you ‘life’, makes you know yourself (if there is a real ‘yourself’) a little more. And makes you more equipped to look at life, you start to enjoy your own life more by your understanding, by your you. There are highs, there are lows, there are heights and there are the bottomless pits. But the more understanding you have, about yourself, and your perspectives of the world around you (which is to say, yourself) the better you are able to handle them, and to be at peace with yourself, to find happiness without searching for it, to be at equanimity, to still be yourself despite everything, to live through the turbulences of life without losing your soul.Everything does not happen ‘for’ a reason. The reasons are ours to decipher. The reasons are all there. It is up to our skills of thought to understand the reasons.
Dhara,
Simply amazing piece of writing!
Below is the most sensational stanza.....
"One must seek happiness in the clolours of the rainbow,the chirping of the birds,the laughter of the waves,the flares of the fire,the kiss of the breeze and above all in the innocent looks of a child."

Life is too short, so it's better to scoop out happiness from such small things. "Small is beautiful."
