Its all in the mind

"You've got to let it all go, Neo. Fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free your mind."

Thats what Morpheus told Neo.. We all need a Morpheus at some point of time in our lives. Many a times he's inside us waiting to be heard. We hear his faint voices. Some are good enough to listen to him, while most just keep telling him "Yeah I hear you, but can you just wait for a moment. Just a moment, until I finish my task at work. Just a moment, until I am over with that party tonight. Just a moment, until that cricket world cup is over. just a moment, until I catch that movie tonight. Just a moment, until I finish that last bottle of beer. Can you please wait just a moment. I will surely get back to you tomorrow on this" That tomorrow never arrives. All that happens maybe is a little feeling of guilt which takes what a day or two to disappear. You get back to cribbing about your life..Morpheus never stops though. He keeps on talking to you. But you have become so used to him now, that you don't even feel like replying to him. Not even saying"Just a moment" And thats when the alarm bells should start ringing, but they don't. Why - because you are too "busy" anyway

And that's when you require a Morpheus whose external to you. A Morpheus to tell you exactly the same things that you know, but with a difference. You dare not turn a deaf ear to this one, thats because you love this Morpheus, care for him, probably more than yourself. You don't want to lose him at any cost. You have no option but listen to him. And thats not difficult when you know that what he's saying is so right. The essence of it all really is about *freeing the mind* . Letting go of that fear, doubt. Taking Control.....

I found my Morpheus at 3 AM on a just another boring night. And I will not let him down. And as a small part of the plan I hereby promise that this and some of the other blogs of mine will be updated at least once in a fortnight. And this time I mean business. Thank You Morpheus.

Hope that all of you find your Morpheus' soon..

Just for a post

This is a post just for a post. just because there has been no post for long.
This post does not mean that I have anything special to say. I am as confused as ever.. After all these years of existence on this planet I have realized that the confusion is here to stay. Only thing that changes is the bone of contention of the confusion. Life ceases to be simple and easy so many times. Why? Why is there not a book which has answers to all of the questions that life crops up from time to time? You know at times, that whatever you have planned has a very good chance of being successful say 90% but why is that the other 10% overcomes the 90% . The fear of rejection.. why does it overcome all other things? Procrastination.... That is where all these things lead.. You just think, think and think. Algorithms begin to flow in your head, If this then that, if yes then here or if no then nowhere. Eventually you realize that you are just where you began - at the Start button. Ironically the thing where it all actually stops is known as a Start button.

you do anything but the right thing. You try to read between the lines. You try to look for clues..
Then one day you realize that it's too late. Its not late yet I know.. but........
