Random Musings

Recently, I read the novel A Walk To Remember. The simplicity of the love story and the message it conveys is so moving. Miracles do happen, at times when least expected. When something is wished for from the innermost depths of the heart, God surely listens. We never realize how much we tend to move away from life in the day-to-day struggle to survive and make ends meet. Frustration and lack of faith make one helpless and pushes them towards what they never intended to or never wanted to be. When faith is lost, a part of the soul is lost.

Someone wisely said that God gives us troubles according to how much we can bear. Some people can bear it all(or most of it at least) with a smile, while some set the house on fire for almost nothing at all. It's all well to crib and rant about what went wrong, but if things go wrong, deep down all know that they had been wrong somewhere. Just that most of us do not want to accept that fact. People have no time to smile themselves, let alone making another smile. At the end of the day, it's all about the money, all about the sex and all about the ego.

What has become of natural beauty, simplicity of the mind and generosity of the heart? Are they worth nothing at all? Even if they are, very few are left to cherish them and even fewer who actually have them. Disillusionment in life is not uncommon, but that does not mean one let's that disillusionment become life itself. There is so much to do, so many places to go, so much to know, and so much to learn. As Jamie Sullivan said in the novel, we all have a purpose in life. The thing is, do we know what we are meant to do?
