COMPLICATED
People
say life is all about how you grow up, how you do and what you achieve.
Different people have different prospective towards life and their own very
unique definition about it. But all of them have a common point, life is about struggle.
There are people who say life is study. Some say life is hard work. To achieve
your desired goal is life. And there are yet another group of people who say
life is love! And then culture also comes into the picture. For Indians, life
is about making their parents feel proud of them. For some other country, it
may be about the enjoyment. For some people, life is all about exploring,
adventure and travelling. For artists, life may be about music and dance and guitar
and flute and the countless! For a Physicist, life is about the Einstein's
equation. For an Engineer, it may be about finding solutions to technical
problems. And to the best of all these, everyone sounds good and incredible in
its own way. But, if I would have to define what life is, I would say "Life is all about approximation. And how
accurate you are in making that approximation is perfection. When you achieve
perfection, you are limitless! ". Imagine a car (yes of course choose
your best one). You can only drive the car on approximation. Accurate
approximation makes you a good driver. And so is life.
Hard
work pays. Does it? No, it's the patience that pays. Of course, hard work acts
as the fuel but patience is the engine that will run your machine. I heard a
quote somewhere a few days back, "Life is really simple, but we insist on
making it complicated". Rubbish. I mean who says that! Life is indeed
complicated. To whom it seems so simple? But, the beauty lies in complications.
After all, we are humans and it's our passion to play with complications. One
can't achieve success without difficulties. It doesn't makes any fun in
achieving the success without complications. If life would be that simple,
Einstein won't have to do such long calculations, Wright brothers won't have to
do ridiculous experiments before flying the first aeroplane, Steve Jobs won't
struggle to build up Apple. All of them took challenges and succeeded.
On
the whole, life must be an Integrated Circuit that contains thousands of talent
similar to circuits but designed to perform a specified task. This is what an Integrated
Circuit is, your Life!
