Caught up in this web of life.. we tend to overdo the pain a relationship can sometime cause.. n underrate all the joy n fun times it has given us.. I guess.. as we have probably another 50 yrs.. that means only 2500 weekends left.. let us enjoy each moment of it... cheers..

I used to laugh at him accusing him of being an old man. Now I realize he's a wise old man. Learn to live with all of life's twists and turns. If you have the right perspective, it might even be fun! Edgar Allan Poe said it the best: "All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream." -Vamsi Curious: Would you describe life as full or twists and turns or ups and downs??

Dont you think thats tough? I kind of opine that 'memories never die'. Its just what we want to keep in the end that matters. @ Nandu That a beautiful saying. @ Salz Agreed. Easy to understand and tough to implement. Aren't many of the life's learnings like that? @ Joyeeta Thank you. :) @ ctone "Bring the sweetest one from ur past, pass it on to your future, That makes life beautiful.” That sounds so nice. Thanks for sharing. @ Rambler

The Law of Attraction says its our thoughts and their vibrations that cause thousands of ripples like waves in the ocean that reach far and wide across the universe gathering and attracting LIKE thoughts and vibrations for us, each living moment....and the greater accumulation of a kind of vibration we emit(positive or negative) thats the kind of future we pre-pave for ourselves!! We are the creators of our own destiny....only that we do not place a belief in our thought system. Just like you said we KNOW subconsciously...all the answers YET we need a conscious effort to recognize/realise them.

As easy it is to say.. Its much more difficult to do... With the burden of the past and the anxiety of the future, it's so difficult in the present... This reminds me of the dialogue in the movie Kung Fu Panda, that the wise master Oogway gives to Po, the nervous dragon warrior. "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery. But today is a gift. That is why it is called the present" Live each moment.. As easy it is to say..
