We all should always try to lead
a life without touch-ups! It is real and it keeps the essence maintained. The natural
beauty, the real meaning and quintessential life is the one without touch-ups.
Imagine a picture, when you see
it without touch-ups, it certainly makes you smile but when you try to make it
better it leaves you analyzing and when you try to perfect it – it loses the
essence.
Why is it becoming necessary for
most of us to lead a perfect life? What is a perfect life? Is it the one which
we see others living, is it one which we read in the books, page 3 and
celluloid. No, life is all about small
& simple moments of happiness we create, we share and also about those
moments which test us on our faith.
Live Simple. Stop Comparing
Is is not life just perfect when we
live it simplified? Now I am not trying to pull in any old school or new school
philosophy when I use the word simplified.
Simplified here suggests, the way
it makes us happy. Why complicate it with comparisons, with adaptations to fit
the bill. Where are we trying to fit ourselves into and with whom and why for
all reasons?
Have Choices. Take Decisions
I love the present day youth for
this reason. They don’t believe in any race. They all want to be cool in their
own ways. The young parents of today do not want to impose things on their kids;
they want them to grow, to learn and most importantly to CHOOSE for them.
I have observed, a child who
grows in such an environment becomes a better human being, a bright
professional and is always considered approachable socially. Because he/she has
learnt to adapt, to talk out and to share fearlessly because they know they
will be heard, understood and once again not forced to follow decisions.
Give Space. Nourish Relationships
Be it your personal or professional
life you need to give space. This space is important not just to nourish relationships
but also to live healthy and grow healthy. Healthy Relationships are the key to
success at work, it leads to strong bonds of friendship, trust and makes
everyone is them empowered.
By saying giving space, I mean to
allow them to be on their own in thoughts, viewpoints and situations. This
works to bring in the sense of responsibility. When they know – you are there
to help them always, they develop the sense of belonging and this
confidence helps them face life with face up, no matter what.
Choice is always yours. Choose to
lead a life with No Touch-ups! Like an Image, life too will not leave its
essence. Have a Happy Life, Stay Blessed.
