Volcanic Love

In the 
loop
of 
Better 
Tomorrow

The wishes that lie within our hearts and the efforts we put in to bring them into reality is something that we all feel at one time or another in our lives. It is fairly okay to keep those wishes in the pipeline and thrive with our efforts to make them real and the part of our life, however, the question of the hour which will be discussed in this article is about whether we skip the precious moments of our lives while being stuck in the loop of "better tomorrow"?

From going through the day-to-day tasks or to achieving the bigger milestones in life, we are struggling and circling around for the completion of the tasks and activities and not living them fully, that is what I have felt when discussed with the people. [Exceptions are always there when I say "we" it means majority not all.]

The point and the objectives are to complete the task/activity and get it over with, to begin with, another. Actually, that is where the problem lies. People often want to put their successes in the form of trophies and highlight them like in the old days the hunters used to display their hunt with all their might to show their power. In this digital era, most things have become superficial and a norm to please, we do it and we do not mean it at all. 

There are a couple of issues with this kind of approach that can be highlighted at this point in time, which is giving priority to the quantity rather than the quality. When we aim for more, mostly the quality will get to be compromised in such circumstances.

Let us take an example of a stock trader when he wants to buy more quantity of stock within his budget he has to compromise on the quality of the stock, as the premium stocks such as Google, Facebook, or Amazon won't be cheap as any other Tom, Dick, or Harry stock. 

The basic concept which needs to be iterated to ourselves is to remind ourselves of the value of quality of a single moment, the moment which has just passed, and the thought to ponder if we have taken enough of that moment or had we lost it in the loop of better tomorrow. 

This world is a dangerous place, it has all the qualities to tickle you and put hurdles in your path to success, but the point of life is also about to face those challenges with dignity and come up stronger, that is where Hope jumps in.

What is Hope?

As per the dictionary definition, hope is:

"a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen."

However, is it all that hope is? The answer is NO. Hope is not just a feeling of expectation, it is far beyond it.

Hope is the combination of multiple perspectives at once, for instance, the major three are listed below:

• a way of life

• a road to positivity

• torchbearer for the lost

Hope, a way of life

Life is the outcome of many challenges combined together and each one of us is facing a unique one, just like our fingerprints. So, it is quite possible to face different feelings in different scenarios in life as life will not be always in favor of you.

The ones who follow hope not just like a feeling but a way of life do not get overwhelmed by the success and not get disappointed by failure. Their hearts are illuminated with it and they live life always with hope, as hope is their way of life.

Hope, a road to positivity

A negative mind results in a negative outcome and far greater negative consequences, so what do we do when the night falls? We lit the lights to brighten it up. That is what Hope does it brings the one suffering from the negative thoughts to the world of positive thoughts.

Hope, a torchbearer

In a journey where there is no light and you are bound to move, what will you do? You move, but the darkness will eat you out and suffocate you within its negative aroma and that is when you can not only move, you will fall back and instead of progression, you will backslide.

At this point in life, you have to know that a narrow tunnel is a one-way path, and once you are halfway there, reaching to your destination and returning to the place you begin it all takes an equal time as your in the mid-way but the outcomes will be hugely different from one another. 

Hope, is that torchbearer, which brightens up your mind and becomes your eyes in that journey of the darkness, to guide you, assist you, and to make you see it all good when nothing is, but with your hope to see it that way, everything becomes the way you have hoped for.

Conclusion

Hope is beyond just what is written in the dictionary, it is a feeling of bright light in the complete darkness, but only when you will try to witness it. Align the thoughts and lay the seeds of hope. as hope is a way of life, a road to positivity, and a torchbearer that results in success.

Hope is that bright light that awaits us all at the end of the tunnel. Let us keep moving, running, walking, or even crawling towards it, that is where the secret to success lies. 

We all should take hand in hand, and lets all fly with hope.

Apology - Maazrat(Urdu)

Introduction

One of the hardest things most of us have to go through is the admission of our own mistakes. We stand upright and hold firm to our mistakes despite knowing on the occasions when we are wrong. By defending our wrongdoings we tend to dig deep into the mess of this ego and superficial point in life where we can not be wrong and hence there comes a problem in life. 

Examples

There are various scenarios in life where one opinion prevails over the other in terms of its validity towards correctness and the other one needs rectification to be correct, the problem arises when you are the latter and as discussed above you have developed a sense of moral high ground where you can not be wrong so someone else has to - who is actually correct. 

Now is the time to make an apology which you have been resisting for a long.

The whole purpose of writing this to enlighten ourselves about the fact that we all are humans and we can make mistakes.

Mistakes are the learning curves of life, and it makes life beautiful when rectified.  An apology can change everything, I would call apology an incredible magical spell that is cast and it works only if it is truly from the heart. Believe me, not every spell of apology works because not every apology is from the heart.

"to err is to humans, to forgive divine"
-Alexander Pope

Conclusion

If we can collectively look within both versions of ourselves the one with pre-apology scenario and the other with a post-apology scenario, in the latter deep down our hearts are in peace and our souls lighter than air, without any burden, grudges because the ones who know, they know to apologize when wrong.
