ALONE, BUT NOT LONELY

Yes of course, there is a difference. I am alone, but mind you- I am not lonely.

Loneliness is an existential and inescapable human condition feared but faced by all.
It can be triggered from a range of things from simple physical exhaustion to a drastic loss.
Loneliness can be isolation, non-receipt of appreciation, loss of a dear one, and the list goes on.

Nothing comes with us, nothing goes with us,
We are born alone,we travel alone and we die alone. Coming across such philosophical stuff is not very uncommon. But the point is, words do not have the power to penetrate the mind till it is proven by the equisite horror of reality.
However, without intellectualizing, theorizing and analyzing singlehood too much, I have noticed that there is too much mortal fear of being alone.( By the way, even I was one among them.)
We cannot share our experiencesour joys or sorrows with anyone else,
We can only share information, but not understanding.

Loneliness however should not be equated with being alone.
One can be alone and feel joyful and fulfilled and
one can be intensely lonely in the midst of crowds.

Language has created the word 'Loneliness' to express the pain of being alone and
it has created the word 'Solitude' to express the glory of being alone.

Some philosophers consider 'aloneness' as the very essence of being human, it means that being unable to be alone is to loose humanness itself.
Victor Emil Frank, an Austrian neurologist once wisely said,
"We need types of leisure which allow for contemplation and meditation.To this end, people need the courage to be lonely."

Therefore loneliness is the restorative idleness of solitude.
satisfied with dreaming our our dreams and being ready to be by oneself all over again,
I sum lifes journey as.

'THE FLIGHT OF THE ALONE TO THE ALONE'

ILINIOR

What i am about to write here is what is long overdue and something that i should have written a while back.
Implying this to someone i know,who doesn't seem to realize that for a moment if the clouds are cast,that is no indication that sun has started emitting less light...
Suicide is no option at all...kindly do not let your mind wonder out...its seriously too small to be left out alone...

By the way,my title reads 'ilinior' which means' the rising sun'...

Here is what i want to say...hope i be able to get my point across....


There is some supreme ultimate power...v have baptized him as 'god'....he will be handling all your problems..
please remember:.'HE DOES NOT NEED YOUR HELP'....

If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle,do not attempt to resolve it.kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for god to do) box..all situations shall be resolved,but
'IN HIS TIME,NOT YOURS'.......

Once the matter is placed into the box,do not hold onto it by worrying about it,instead focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now...

everything happens for a reason..nothing happens by 'chance' or by means of good/bad luck..Illness,injury,love and sheer stupidity-all occur to test the limit of our soul...

If someone hurts you,betrays you,breaks your heart,it is to help you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to...

Someday everything will make perfect sense..
so for now,

laugh at the confusion,
smile through the tears
&
keep reminding yourself,
that everything that happens,happens for a reason....

Hold your head up,because you have every right to.tell yourself you are a great individual and trust me.you have every reason to believe that you are one..

P.S:
'DON'T REGRET THINGS THAT MADE YOU SMILE,JUST SMILE'

PROMISE./

Having come across an amazing inspirational video not very long ago,i give it a pentropy here.
Lets all promise to reflect over it and take it to heart.

We all know that-Life is tough,it's a given.
When we stand up,we are going to be shoved back down,
when we are down,we are going to be stepped on..

It's no secret ;- you fall down,you stumble,you get pushed,you land straight on your face. But everytime that happens,you get back on your feet,you get up as fast as you can,no matter how many times you have to do it.

Success has been and continues to be defined as getting up one more time when we have been knocked down.

Nothing is free and living ain't easy.
Life is hard,real hard,incredibly hard,
we fail more often than we win.

Nobody is handing us anything.
it's upto us,to puff up our chest,stretch our neck and overcome all the difficult,the nasty,the mean,the unfair..

We are more than we appear to be-let's prove it.
We want the best that is,-lets get out there and earn it.

Once we decide where we want to be and we want that pushing force until we get there.-Thats how winners are made.

At the end of the day,success is what we all want,we all want to win
and the race will be won,there is no question about that.
So lets get out on top,run faster,dream bigger,live better than we ever lived before.
let's do it for ourselves,let's prove it to ourselves.
 
Promise.?

ALL ABOUT THE JOURNEY

As the philosophy of life goes,it is said that life is beautiful.
It  'may' be for many, it 'might' be for some and 'it is' indeed for a few.
No, no,  comparing lives is not my point here.
My point is the situations are the same maybe be its viewed in different angles or perceptions rather..So lets all belong to that last category.

We are all running for life,though many of us dont even know where we are running and where it will lead us.
Do you really know where you are going? Do you have a plan-of-action to take the kinks out of your road to the future? ...you can reach and find happiness. You can reach for that plain peace-of-mind which you desire. All you have to do is turn the key and open the door.
If we have been rejected many times in our life, then one more rejection isn't going to make much difference. If you're rejected, don't automatically assume it's your fault. The other person may have several reasons for not doing what you're asking her/him to do: none of it may have anything to do with you. Perhaps the person is busy or not feeling well or genuinely not interested in spending time with you. Rejections are part of everyday life. we shall not let them bother us. we will rather keep reaching out to others. When we begin to recieve positive responses, then we are on the right track.not that if we don't get them we are not on the right,but still,its just a confirmatory sign It's all a matter of numbers. Count the positive responses and for get about the rejections.

Our fantasies are unlikely. But beautiful.

So in this journey of life,nothing is handed to us.
Our hearts get pushed,stepped on,beaten,bruised,cheated,blamed,accused
but,
It Still Works....

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life:

"LIFE GOES ON.............................."
