DESIRES

“I wish I had a plush bungalow”
“this is my dream car”
“oh …I desperately want that dress”
“loving family, friends and a caring life partner is all what I need”
DESIRES!!! We call them desires!
A distinction is pretty noticeable between these desires..a difference in approach we can say! materialistic or not…these desires form a formidable part in ones life. The list of never ending desires entangle our lives to such an extent that we ourselves are not capable of getting rid of these cobwebs! A temporary existence we may say! Temporary existence because of their frequent replacements by new ones! There is never a void situation, an ideal situation when the mind is sans any hustle and bustle! Indeed….a mind can never reach the ideal state of contentment because desires are inevitable.
They have pros and certain cons too. We gear up to fulfill them and reach whopping heights of success. this may be noted as an advantage but unaccomplishemnt of desires is the veracity of life and it cannot be denied. and moreover, it leads to constant comparisons which is an epicenter cause of jealousy and ego clashes.
My opinion is quite pellucid and I opine that life may not be as immaculate as we dream of…our unreachable and dreams may cause an enormous hindrance in the smooth journey of life!
I want to be a singer….an eminent ,illustrious personality .It appears to be difficult practically! some people say “how is it possible...are you mad?” I have been listening to uncountable tantrums and will be hearing them till eternity! Jokes apart! Even being aware of my capability they want me to have a peaceful life ..typical “shadi karke settle ho jao” types…but I completely disagree with the this orthodox mindset of people around me..
In short..this is one of my biggest desire and attached to it are various rejections, comparisons and all the drawbacks I discussed earlier..
I hope I have given my vindication!

What is the solution???what should be done with this abundance of desires?? Should we stop dreaming??
Sounds impossible to me. But certainly we can figure out a way! A calm introspection or segmentation of these dreams or getting ourselves a reality check by analyzing our desires and having enough audacity and resilience to accept the truth and starving passionately for those desires and ofcourse ignoring those silly juvenile remarks are the ways to tackle the situation!
I tried and it helped focussing me more on my desires and has strengthened my determination..
