Goal

There is a goal for everything, every existing living creature has a goal. Every game has a goal, every action has a motive, every Life has a goal.. What? This we never thought of, did we? Naa.

I Bet, 99.9% of existing population never even cared to think about this topic, or may be it scares them. Human nature always avoids topics that are tough or beyond their reach. But to be successful we must accept challenges & search for the unanswered questions. Many people have a single principle, to live each day & save for the future. This is the best policy as far as worries are concerned, to live in present, but living without giving Life a thought is bad. Life of Humans is very different & too important to live like other living beings. We are not only born to survive or gain power, but the extra ability that we have is to gain knowledge & enhance our intelligence. But many think that didn't we learned enough in our school & college? Naa. Learning leads to education, where as Knowledge comes from experience & thinking. Even an animal teaches its kid to hunt, heal, hide & escape. Humans have this ability to think & learn. Why this knowledge is so important that we are emphasizing so much on it? and above all WHAT is this knowledge? This complicated question according to me has a single answer - Learning about our existence is the biggest knowledge. Our existence means Who are we, What are we, Why are we? Now, answers to these questions may differ from person to person, each time with experience when you ask these questions to your self, you'll get different answers.

When we are able to get all answers to all our questions, we can say that we are gaining knowledge. This alone is not your Goal, but gaining knowledge & implementing it practically in our Life will help you discover your goal and achieve it. This is not complicated at all. Easiest way to coach yourself is to give yourself some time. Away from other people, away from mobile & internet, away from memories & thoughts. Talk to yourself & stay in a state of blank, interaction will automatically start. This needs practice. This is not meditation, but interaction. Be your own friend, no one understands you better than yourself. Befriend yourself and you'll never feel lonely. 

Practice this thought process and all problems will become very small and they won't trouble you anymore. As you now know their reason & solution now. And your ultimate Goal? No, that you yourself must discover. I know, you will :)

Profound thoughts..Well written !!
I have this habit of shutting out the world from my mind once in a while and I prefer to sit motionless..set my spirit and soul free and do indulge in thought processes..Ask myself many questions and sometimes I get guilty about very petty matters too..Might not be a big issue at all..it may even be just a matter of not giving a smile to the sweeper , security guard of my apartment or Office building..But then I do give it a thought and try to be as warm as possible to them too..I give utmost importance to Humility in my life as I believe there is nothing more alluring than Humility..I have always felt that God has been very kind to me and my family..So the goal of my Life is try to alleviate the sorrows from others life in whatever way possible and I prefer to do it all alone without coming into anybody's notice..I find a great source of meaning to my being born as a Human being on earth by just being the reason of someone's happiness and try to make a positive difference in at least one person's life..be it old..young kids..or even my friend..It may be so simple as a Hug to both the young and to the old to all that are lonely.. I have this very Old Grandma in my Apartment who is going through lot of physical and mental pain & agony..I am all hugs and love for her..and she waits for me curiously downstairs escaping her DIL's attention..The Smile of affection and blessings I get from her..is something I am unable to express here in words..Cherished feelings they are for me..Life Long happiness..Do I or We need more than this ?

In short .. My ultimate goal of Life is to spread Love, Happiness to all around..Try my bit..and make my Life Meaningful..

Kudos to you for this Post !
