Can't-think-of-one syndrome - IV

Sometimes with life , we want to move away from the life we lead and the people who know us really well.The reason is not hatred,disappointment,hurt or pain but just the longing to re-invent our self.Meeting or being with the same people over and again at certain point of time, places a restriction on what we can be or the very many possibilities to our living-self.

They have known you some way for a real long time that when you ve moved away from being the person you used to be , whether by choice to shrink or grow, they just cannot digest.This, though pleasant at certain instances as this, predominantly places a limitation on the person whom we actually grow out to be.

"In order that all men may be taught to speak truth,
it is necessary that all should learn to hear it. "
-Samuel Johnson

This is my quote for the day and what triggered me to think in this direction.

The key is to let go of the image we often create in our minds and fervently hang on to, and accept that which is real and changing.

Some where I read, "Knowledge is not power...but potential power."

"Sometimes with life , we want to move away from the life we lead and the people who know us really well.The reason is not hatred,disappointment,hurt or pain but just the longing to re-invent our self" - MY GODDD...really shocked to see these words...these are the words which are in my throat and never came after that..dont want to go read after this because either as usual iam not able to understand or these words have filled my brain and my brain doesnt want to move after that. When i see these words, immediately i can remember my all time favorite song "zindagi ke zafar" from an old hindi film "Aap ki kasam". that song is all about a guy who goes far away from his near and dear ones and (if you people know hindi pls don’t ask me the meaning of the song…because till now I do not know the lyrics).....not able to descriibe exactly...atlast i have made it.. i have come out of the crowd and iam all alone in search of something...whenver the hearts close to me ask for the reason.. i was not able to explain them clearly the reason why i have moved away from the life i lead...i know very well that they will never understand and i will never be able to make them understand...for that fact my parents themselves were not able to understand...words are the messengers for expression.. was not able to describe them in correct words....ur words are truly great...thanks a lot...risha i dont know if you r going to view this....but if at all u r....thanks a lot for those fine words...

Each of our lifes are made of the same stuff...same thoughts, same kinda people,experiences, feelings ...like coffee , just that the composition and presentations vary.One coffee...many names :-)
