A date with yourself

There are times when you feel that this is it i cant take it anymore. Life is full of questions is'nt it for which we search answers all the time. We go to a temple and ask the almighty why such things happen to us. We ask our loved ones why they do things that hurt our feelings. we ask our boss why we haven got the promotion this time. We ask the teachers why we have been given less marks this time. Questions,questions and more questions. Why not for once turn to ourselves for all the answers. we might just find the answer within us. Robin Sharma in his book 'megaliving' says 'if you want to truly improve your outside world you must improve your inside world'.
I personally have been some one who have asked all of the questions above. I have always blamed the circumstances for all the wrong things happening around my life. For instance i blamed my dad for forcing me into studying Bcom when i wanted to study visual cimmunications, i blamed my husband's travel to foreign countires on work and use that as an excuse for not working or not able to land a job. But then its human tendency is'nt it? Look at all the successful people.They also have the same brain as any one else. God must have created man with different complexions or sizes but he has given the same brain to all of us. Its only that some of us use it to the fullest potential and some of us just kill it by being idle or blaming things around us. Its time to act wisely. Let the bygone be bygone lets not waste any more time.Lets start asking questions and find answers within ourselves, lets start giving that extra bit in whatever we do, lets start afresh and remember the journey to success starts with a single step. So lets take that step right away. Happy journey.

This is a very nice, introspective post, Sheelu.
If only we stop in our tracks and question ourselves, a lot of changes can happen especially in relationships. But many a time, we fail to see what is happening inside us.
