How long ago that you remember you were hanging out with your friends at infamous "addas" or jamming up your favorite tune, thinking about your first crush, humming that a Bon Jovi song, reliving your last favorite vacation etc.,. , Many of these memories dont seem very long ago now. But what has happened unoticeably is that time has passed, passed swiftly and unknowingly. Time is meant to pass, no denying it. I am worried my watch gave me a verdict 60 seconds to turn 60, with the time trap stop shut and we are all living under the timed Stopwatch thats ticking every moment and it stops with our breath. Trust me its faster than we know it with the race against time we are on everyday. We even time the hours we sleep, the hours we work, the hours we spend in traffic etc.,.,
This makes time very precious and with this high costly most important measurement of this life, I want am concerned as to what I will do when I turn 60. I want to keep this blog alive till then, as to when I come back and read this and atleast I can flaunt a smile on my wrinkled face, that is, if I make it to my 60th Birthday. Wait a minute, 60th birthday? thats all ? only 60th I get! Man am I greedy. The stop watch we are undertimed with has two major elements. Fate and Destiny. Its like Incident and Problem, or Girlfriend and Marriage. Both similar but not the same. The other factors are Obligation and Responsibility. Courage and Wisdom. Strength and Breath. Health and Wealth. Laughter and happiness. Sorrow and Sadness.
The time Warp is running out suddenly we are in 30s. With the "how much busy I am" graph bar scaling higher and higher every minute, in no time are in mid 40s. When we face our first Slip disc, or first diabetes report, or the knee pain, balding head - Lord Raama, we realize then we are getting close to the Mark. Now I may want to be a Manager, later on a better person, better husband, write a book or may be build a farm etc., But what am I gonna do when I turn 60?
I gave this nasty thought a thought. Ofcourse I will turn 60. What am I gonna do then? Probably I think its the right time to plan things now. Isnt it good to do so than to just succumb to destiny and live from what I get or to make what I can from what I can source? I just dont want to be Working in my life, instead I want to be working ON my life. With that thought, I have decided that I dont want to plan what I want to do when I turn 60, instead WHAT I WANT TO BE when I am 60. That way I can then plan what I want to do, what I want to own and also what I dont want to be doing and not to own etc.,., I will ignore Naysayers, and mediocrity.
I long for constructive criticism. I am thankful for many who walked upto me and identified my mistake, my drawbacks and ill qualities.. All of it has constantly driven me towards being a better person and to innumerable those I am utterly thankful... I want to be doing Social work and farming exotic fruits. This is my motto to be living through days like today and yes, this is where I want to get to. To be alive, independent and hopeful is what i want to be till I die. To be remembered, admired and loved is what I want to be after I am dead :)
What is it that you want to be when you turn 60?. Please leave your feedback and comments below. Also do a +1 if you frowned or smiled or thought I am stupid :). As I said, I love constructive criticism.
