Life is empty without goals

Did you ever feel that your life has no meaning? That you are worth nothing for this universe?

Well, if it was the case then you wouldn’t be reading this in the first place. Each one of us has a goal to serve in this world. Bhagavad Gita teaches a lot about “the purpose of life” and why we exist.

One human being goes through so much in their life, there are so many experiences in each one of them. All of them are unique on their own and special. What matters the most out of it is how they come out as a person, do they give up, find a smart way or survive?

The pursuit of happyness is a movie, based on a real-life story of Chris Gardener. It is so heartfelt and natural, the story and the movie which gives us an important message, hardships never leave a person and it depends on them how they conquer it. Chris being a mere salesman survived with his son with no roof over his head. He tries so hard and finally becomes a financially stable man. Education for him and his son was a luxury they couldn’t afford.

His story inspires thousands that how one opportunity can change your life forever, how one choice can change your future, but it is a sad reality, some don’t even make it to the opportunity.

Coming back to our goals, we all have something in mind, right? You might wonder it is no use, how can one person change anything in this world, but your presence affects the universe.

“If you wish for something, the entire universe conspires to get it to you”, but does that happen? I feel until we do the hard work for it, we will never get what we want the most in life. Yes, God helps us in strange ways, but what makes it possible is our passion and desire for it.

Human beings are strange, they work their entire life to get something and after achieving so many things, they leave the world empty-handed.

Life is one beautiful hell, there are so many problems each one of us face, it depends on you, what you want to make out of it, fight the issues with solutions or cry over it?

The Alchemist is a weird book to understand on your first reading, it talks about destiny a thousand times in the book but is destiny something we are all running for? Or is it us who can write our destiny?

There are so many mysteries of the universe out there and we don’t know the tiniest bit of it, all we are doing is fulfilling our destiny and trying to achieve a goal that goes on until we die.
