Living in Tranquility

      We are what we think. True indeed, our thinking shapes us.
      The rat race of daily life, the yearning to get more and more, has let loose the reins of our desires. Many of us seem to satiate our thirst with mundane pleasures.
      Little do we ponder about the fact that money is not the end of all. We buy a pretty dress, a brand new four wheeler,  a house, a trip to distant lands and boast of our big  accomplishments. We try to buy happiness.
     Does that give us true sense of being of what we are in reality? The answer is a clear big no.
       Well, we will never be able to realise our potential. Sooner or later, we will feel emptiness within ourselves.
      Many live in despair and have no way out. Not all can dare to fight the truth.It  takes a lot of courage to stand out from the crowd.
     There are some lucky ones who break away from the shackles of pride and try to lead life in a more meaningful way. A few, however,try to live a life free of desires for they have learnt the lessons of wise man. The mind is free from worldly bondage and peace slowly settles in.
      It's all on us what we really want out of life.The fodder of heart is within us and the sooner we realise it the happier we are.
