Fragility of life.

by 8 Comments

Life is like that

Fragile and fragmented

There is much left unsaid undone

There is much left incomplete

For we are not perfect beings

Fragility is a truth of our life

But life continues  ….

However much we may think we have given our best

There is always an expectation

Some how somewhere

That is yet left unfulfilled

There is always something more

That we need to have done.

A battle we need to have fought

A voice we should have raised

A devil we need to have dared

And annihilated

It happens in one way or another.

But we can only learn

By living our life forward

And while unfortunately we cannot go and undo all the past

We certainly can empower ourself

To rise no matter the storms .

And right the wrongs in time.

Leaving the world a little better  than before .

I wrote this as a heartfelt offering of support and encouragement in  hope to those going through or remembering a traumatic past.

While life is fragile

Hope is here to stay .

    “My father told me he never felt emptiness — that painful, gnawing feeling that something is missing in your life — until he left his farming village in rural India. It was a remarkable statement from a man who grew up with no running water or electricity and whose family scarcely had enough to put food on the table each night.”

    “But in the village, people took care of each other. They shared food, looked out for each other’s kids, and helped out in a crisis — like when my father’s mother died when he was just 10 and neighbors stepped in like surrogate parents. People also knew each other, not just their names, but their stories and families, and they chose to spend time with each other over meals, games, and celebrations for the many festivals that dotted the calendar.”

    “After years of reflecting on the stories I have heard, delving into scientific data, and convening researchers, I have come to see there are three essential elements that fuel our fulfillment and well-being: relationships, service, and purpose.”

    “Relationships keep us grounded and bonded to each other. Service, from formal volunteering to informal small acts of kindness, is about helping each other. And purpose gives our life a sense of direction and meaning. Together, these elements form the triad of fulfillment.”

    “Yet all three drivers of fulfillment have diminished in many of our lives. One-third of adults and about half of young people are struggling with loneliness. The majority of our country is not engaged in formal or informal service to each other. A majority of young adults say they have little or no sense of purpose or meaning in life.”

    “Perhaps this is because so many of the messages coming at us tell us to prioritize a different triad, the triad of success: fame, wealth, and power. While there is nothing inherently wrong with these elements, on their own, they rarely bring lasting fulfillment. Young people feel like they must constantly hustle and chase accomplishments, recognition, and followers on social media, hoping it will lead them to success. Inside many of us are wondering, is this what life is about?”

    “We need a clear and explicit shift that puts relationships,
    service, and purpose at the heart of society — and our lives.”
