Give it any Title

When we are born, we have a lot of questions on our mind. We don’t know who the people around us are, where we are, what we are supposed to do, how to talk, how to walk and so on. As we grow up, we find answers to most of them – from mother, father, siblings, teachers, friends and few other answers on our own. And then we have more questions – Why do I have to go to school? Why is the moon not falling on earth? What are stars? Who is an engineer? Why is my friend taller than me? Why can’t I eat chocolates and so on. Yet again, as we grow older, we find answers. We like it or not, some answers cannot be changed. Later in life, few more questions – What is my purpose of life? Where am I heading to? Why am I not as talented as my friend? Why do I have all the problems in life? What’s my passion? Am I passionate about something at all? Where do people go when they die? Who’s my life partner going to be? Am I really alone in this world and so on.

As it goes, we continue to find answers again. Some answers strengthen us, some make us happy, some unexpected, some tear us apart, some of them come at the right time when we just wanted them and some questions go unanswered… Yes, some go unanswered, you like it or not and that has to be accepted! We continue to live to find those answers. So does that mean we find them all before we die? Not necessarily. If we do not know an answer, it just means we are not supposed to know the answer! That gives rise to another question – Why?

Well, I don’t know. All I know is, every question has to have an answer. Just that, we do not know, at this point. We might never know. You might be a superstar, richest man on earth, most powerful saint, man with highest wisdom or anyone – The answer is the same! You cannot know all answers.

If there is pain, there has to be pain. If there is pleasure, there has to be pleasure. If you have to go through something all one, that’s how it has to be! The Almighty and his intentions cannot be questioned. We have to keep faith and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you know the reason, well and good. If you do not know, believe me, it’s better!
This is probably all I want to say in this post. If it’s incomplete, well, that’s how it’s supposed to be. It’s again for a reason. I also do not know all answers for the questions in my life. But I enjoy finding answers. I enjoy this mystery. There’s no other way I feel.

Feel free to comment.
