Today I want to share a perspective with all the Tigers on the Chowgule campus. You wake up every morning and you walk in to the campus and for some unknown reason we all kind of forget something. What is this something?? It's what I would call "The beauty of life". Life is not about listening to some random song and dancing to it, answering a stressful exam or sitting through a lecture of psychology. These are all just a PART of life.
Let me stress on that point again, These are all a PART OF LIFE.
Parts of life such as these, help in finding some meaning on this journey of life. It helps create a path on which we must walk on. Do you want an example??? Ok.
Let's take the first instance: The Random song.
I say "Random", because that is exactly what it is when you hear it the first time. And then you realise that the same "Random" song grows on you. And all of a sudden You are shuffling every time you hear the Party Rock Anthem, or humming the tune of Gangnam Style while attending your lecture. Get the point? It's become a part of your life, but is it your life? No, it's not. It's the life of LMFAO or PSY and they influence you in some way.
So, What is the beauty of Life? First you must understand that you are not a lost cause. Ever seen a guy walking on the street and begging for money, the guy thinks he is a lost cause and thus he begs for your sympathy. If only he knew the potential within his very body. If only he knew that life is beautiful if he is willing to get rid of the charcoal in his hand, and replace it with a palette of vibrant colours and a brush. We all are special and unique in our own way. We are designed in such a way, that we have unlimited potential to achieve the best we can. Many have done it, and they were not God's. They were mere humans like you and me who chose to understand the Beauty of Life and make the most of it.
So, The first step to understanding the Beauty of Life is to make the most of it. And how do we make the most of it? We do so by finding the roots of our very nature. If you can understand yourself, you will have power over yourself. And that will give you a clear and concise vision as to what your purpose in life is all about. And once you have found that, smile away and go achieve your purpose. College is that part of your life where you try and understand yourself to the fullest. So while you are here, make the most of it. Try everything you can. Make the most of mistakes, because through the mistakes there will come an understanding of yourself. And understanding is very vital to see the beauty of life.
So the Beauty of Life is all about understanding yourself, and making the most of it by doing what you love. So prep up you guys and beautiful girls. The real world needs you, and soon they will have you. Live every second like there is no tomorrow. And see the power of beauty enrich your life.
I will share with you the things that you can do to recognise that potential within you from time to time. I hope this post has helped you in some way.
Remember YOU ARE THE BEAUTY OF LIFE. :)
CHEERS!!!
