Sometimes in life, it could be sooner or later but in due course, I guess we all get a one idea, a one thought that would make it seem like that's our purpose to be. It might so be that the said thing is a little unattainable, maybe fantastical, or might just have a lot of hurdles that are kinda difficult to be solved by one person alone. Yet, there is this trepidation and a weird sense of excitement that the mind knows. There is some gut feeling, or some push that the mind gets and you get into it.
The story till here is fine. The person achieves whatever he wants, its like a slap on the face for his detractors and his life's purpose is resolved, right?
Wrong.
Purpose. The very inspiring thoughts that one might get about something one is passionate about and definitely wants to achieve despite having obstacles aplenty. Purpose. The fleeting thoughts of possible futile trials to get something that one wants. You know, life has never been and I don't think it should ever be about getting what one wants. Its always the journey. The path you take to achieve your purpose is actually your purpose.
A bunch of people might try (in vain) to portray success as a very inspiring thing. Its not success that's inspiring. Success becomes extremely banal in comparison with what goes to become successful. Perseverance, discipline, goal, failure, persistence, faith, love, support and dedication are inspiring.
Next time someone comes to you and tells you about success, you know what to do.
But without purpose, all these fancy words are nothing but just words. So, even if its a fleeting thought, give it some thought. Yeah, the fact remains that the whole world might not feel its a good idea, but hey, its your purpose. Maybe you were destined to follow that path, not the world. Just remember that the road isn't tarred. Don't tell the Karnataka government, they'll concretise that too. Enjoy the rough ride anyways.
