who are you?

as i move ahead on the road to glory, i see many things around me. happy faces that share my joy, participative faces that make me feel i am not alone, sad faces caught up in a world of their own, dreamy faces lost in their thoughts. everybody has a purpose in life, but i dont know how many are being able to fulfill it.

many of them dont know their purpose in life. they have not awakened to the guiding principle of their inner God, leading them to the tallest heights in life. they are just living like driftwood, going with the stream not aware of what may come ahead. they dont have a vision of life. and even if they have, its blurred. there are no goals, no aims, no objectives. its a life that they just live, rather they just exist. they are unaware of their existance. only believing to take instantaneous decisions. i pray for them.

some of the rest are bitten by the practicality bug. they just follow strict rules in life. not following a rule is a sin to them. they dont realize that their life is linked to lives of others. they just feel that they are right. and what they do is never wrong. they are very rigid and 'compromise' does not exist in their dictionary.

a few belive in the power of miracles. the endless possibilities that life has to offer. the vast horizons that one can traverse. they belive that they can reach the stars. they believe that there are no limits. they know how to follow their dreams, they know how to trust themselves, others and God. they know that life is a journey, not a destination. they are led by the power within. they are self-motivated. they drive themselves and others to glory. they also know that life is a combination of roles, where everyone has to play their part. no one can move ahead alone. they recognise others in their lives. they know the importance of their loved ones. they know how to love, and they know how is it to be loved in return. they are closest to their loved ones, and in turn closest to God.
