The road ahead is a mystery
You don’t know anything about the road
It feels good to start a new journey
Hoping to see new faces
New places
New people
And it also feels a tad scary
As you have never been down this road before
It may bring you chaos
Blunders
Life long troubles
But you know you will gain experience
You will get to know yourself better
And this is what life is all about
Knowing your ownself
So that you can know the world we live in
But the forward journey is difficult
As compared to the return journey
Because while moving forward
We don’t know what’s waiting
For us ahead
We just have to find it out
For our ownself
Have to deal with problems
Have to find the correct path
To reach the desired destination
But mostly in Life
The desired destination &
The deserving destination
Don’t overlap
And that causes pain
And struggle & craving
For returning back to
The cocoon
This return journey is difficult
No doubt but
Easier than the forward journey
Because we know the path of return
And we got the experience
Of the forward journey also
To help us bring an end to the
Whole journey and have a smile on our face
Either for the successful journey
Or for the heartily attempt you had
To seek your desire and make it what you deserve..
There was a profound message for everybody here to experience the little joys of forward journey but if sucks then experience gained from it helps you strive great in return journey…Thanks for the splendid post 🙂

Question re “But the forward journey is difficult / As compared to the return journey”
Why do you think that there has to be a return journey????? Just curious! 🙂

It’s not mandatory that there should be a return journey but I think that if we want to do something new then we give it all the heart and try it. It takes courage and dedication for trying the new thing. And if it fails then we gladly accept it. So the duration to make the desire the deserved is more and needs everything from you. But if it fails, then the duration is less to think that what we desire can only stay as desire 🙂 I hope I made some sense 😀 in short if there’s a return journey(ie back to square one) then its easily to trace back the path we covered !! Wow thank you for all your curiousness Colin 🙂 you’re helping me bring out the best in me 😉

Yes it makes sense but I don’t think that there can ever be a return. Following your dreams is critical but, if they cannot be realized, then it may just need a change in direction. It is impossible to go back in as much as the lessons learned on the journey to a “failed dream” have changed you. i.e. You may feel you are going back to an earlier point in your life but it can never be because of the additional experiences that you have since had. Your writings are really interesting! 🙂

Yeah Colin that I also had in mind, that if I can do time travel and go back to yesterday then still the time-travelled version of me will be more experienced and knowledgeable than the version of yesterday. So logically speaking there’s no going back to square one 😀 but if let’s say we love someone and its a failure, then to start again with somebody else means you’re starting from Zero but with added experience 😉 this is the reason why I love interacting with people because I get to see their perspective also 🙂 Thank you boss !! Hope the run of interesting writings continue 😀
