Are we all running a rat race? by The Spiritual Princess-Jayapalashri Anil Founder Samskara Healing Advisor- We Welfare Society
The fad of today is all about us ticking along with the clock ticking by our side. Many live a life being controlled by the clocks and calendars. Schedules are packed, calendars are packed giving no space for any kind of setbacks. The competition being so high keeps everybody on their feet and at the edge wanting to reach and being the first to be reaching their goals.
In the process of running a race everyone is forgetting the simple importance of living in the now. Nor enjoying the simple and beautiful things of life. Be it from watching the sunrise or a beautiful flower blooming is something that can be brushed aside without a second look as everyone is busy running to meet and be at an appointment. Though today many are stuck at home or have work from home options. Nevertheless they hardly have time to breathe or relax.
In the process of running the race each one has forgotten the simple essence of life. But there is always a now, where one can slow down and start looking at enjoying life and living in the moment. When we understand that we are here to witness and experience the creation by the creator it would make our life more simple and not live by the clock. It is okay to move slowly and to experience a simple sunrise or sunset being totally relaxed.
We never know if tomorrow will ever come, it is not a pessimistic statement but it is an important statement to know it’s always good to live in the present and in the moment then trying to live in the future which is unknown to us. But at the same time when we live in the moment we live a happier and stress-free life where we are only concentrating on what needs to be done at that very moment.
The simple mantra of life should be to live in the moment which would bring ease and comfort. It is okay if certain deadlines are not met and certain commitments are delayed. The importance to self should be given at times which would in turn bring out the best in overall quality of life.
Breathe, relax and enjoy life......
