Live in Emptiness

No one desires to be empty. Everyone and everything in this world seeks to be filled or to fill others. The driving force behind life is the desire to avoid emptiness. Today, everyone aims to be on top. They may not know the path to get there, but their wish to reach the peak remains strong. Dreaming of the summit isn't wrong; the issue is that we aren't starting from the valleys. The real problem is our reluctance to be empty. Those who are more fulfilled often try to fill others, while those who are emptier eagerly seek even the smallest drop from them. But what about the quality of what we are receiving? How beneficial is it really? Constantly being full can be harmful; sometimes, we need to be empty too. Rivers have existed for thousands of years because they know when to dry up and when to fill themselves with water. Clouds eagerly gather vapor from lakes, and lakes, in turn, yearn for water from the clouds. Both understand each other's importance. They know when to be empty and when to overflow. They wait for their time and then act.


Nature constantly teaches us to wait for our moment, and when it's meant to be, the spotlight will be on us. But we don't like to wait. As soon as someone approaches emptiness, they seek help to fill themselves up again. That's where we make a mistake. Have the courage to remain empty until your time comes. That period of emptiness will become a dot that connects with other dots to form your complete picture. Sometimes, your emptiness can be the reason for your fullness. The falling of a flower or a leaf leads to the birth of another. Their emptiness in autumn is the reason for their flourishing in spring. When something is moving downward, don't think it's approaching its end. In reality, it's preparing itself for the next peak. So, include both ups and downs in your journey instead of moving in a straight line. A steady path may bring success, but it won't allow you to experience the different shades of life. Aim to reach peaks through valleys. This approach will not only make you stronger but also give you the confidence to face challenges. Your life will be balanced if it experiences both highs and lows. Find your time to remain empty. Embrace reality. Have faith in yourself. Cherish the moments that make you stronger.

No matter the situation, it cannot be greater than your capacity to handle it. Think of yourself as a warrior. If you lose, it's okay; at least you will uncover the weaknesses of the situation. The next time, that same emptiness will help you become full. Don't be like a small stone crushed and eroded within the river. Be a stone that helps the river flow from the mountains. Don’t let circumstances dictate your path; instead, shape the circumstances around you. Be the foundation of your time, guiding it in the right direction. Learn to endure difficult situations, find your weaknesses during these times, and let that emptiness lead you to fullness. Never rely on others to fill you up. Be full on your own. Whenever there is emptiness, see it as a sign of impending fullness. Believe it! Try living in emptiness for once; it will lead you to fullness.

"The usefulness of the cup is its emptiness." - Bruce Lee

Days in Shadow

Every day begins with a multitude of possibilities, each one brimming with infinite potential. Each new day offers us the chance to create a fresh milestone in our journey. Change is always waiting to enter our lives, yet it often lies beyond our comfort zones. We've grown accustomed to staying in safe, risk-free environments. However, this comfort zone has turned into a barrier to our success, and we often end up blaming our misfortunes on luck or timing. Few are willing to rise above their fears, and many confine themselves within self-imposed limits. These limits are imaginary lines we've drawn, influenced by the fears of others. But if we dare to push beyond these boundaries, it could be a game-changer. People desire happiness without hardship and avoid pain whenever possible. Many seek a way to achieve success with minimal effort, but can you truly be shaped without enduring the heat of transformation? We are all in search of a never-ending, glowing source of energy. ...

Wish of Freedom

India wants to remove its boundaries. It wants to see the pleasure on the faces of Indians. It want to give a real freedom to its citizen. We got the freedom but the true experience of the freedom is not seen on the faces of Indians. We want it like the water in desert. The world has so many things for fill the curiosity of people. It has many scenes to see and capture with the camera of eyes. There are many places in this world where you stop to think and start to feel. It has the path to reach at the stage of an infinite joy. The smallest thing of the world has a power teach the person. Nothing is in this world which is not important for us. The world is an open book. The syllabus of life is covered in this book. The images which oblige us to know abut the happiness. But problem is that a person can't read this whole book. Only the few pages or few chapters of this book we can read. Because an imaginary lines are made in this book by the readers. The author wrote this book...

Beyond The Hopes

Every day is like a new chapter in the book of our lives. It might be as long as a page or as short as a single line, but each day contributes to our unique story. Time doesn't wait for us to be ready; it flows continuously. It's up to us whether we choose to rise or fall with the current. Time is like a road—it doesn’t decide if you’ll reach your destination; it simply provides a path to follow. If you’re not moving forward, that’s on you, not the road. You can't blame the road if you don't reach your destination. Roads are never wrong; sometimes, it's our choice of which road to take that leads us astray. Not every day ends with our desires fulfilled. Some days are just for growth, others for storing memories, and some give us the wings to soar. Only by choosing the right days and the right paths can we reach our destinations. We all want to soar like a butterfly and experience the different fragrances of life's adventures. There are countless things we wa...
