“What day is it?"
It's today," squeaked Piglet.
My favorite day," said Pooh.”
― A.A. Milne
If I would have a great corporate career, my life would have been set! The day I will have 1 million dollars, I would retire and live on an island. These sentences are part of our daily grind, if someone more successful in any realm of our perception crosses our path, the precedence of success immediately changes and the grass on the other side looks so green that the garden which we made with our own blood, sweat and tears begin to look pale and dull.
With time I have realized that we can keep beating around the bush with our thoughts and would end up wasting our energies on the then and the how? But the decisions or people or circumstances which at present looks like regrets were our only choice in the past and we happily chose them then because those were our finest possible options in the darkest or the joyous of hours. Change is inevitable and so is life and we often tend to forget that the joy lies in the journey, the joy is constantly with us, it was in the past and shall be there in the future but are we able to walk with it hand in hand, are we embracing life and each moment it has to offer?
Yoga is the only form of art which has helped me stay connected to the powerful voice inside which keeps telling be happy now and life will be happier in the future and if you ever feel that you are trying to curb that voice, please don’t. Calm down, stay in the moment and try to listen want your soul says, I am sure, it would whisper, hey there, relax..”The life is in the now”.
