life couldn't be seen from open eyes.

thinking of those days when i was a kid. no worries , no responsibilities, no tension. we all were like a wind ,
care free and cool enough to make all the world around us a lovely place to live in. thinking of those days, my eyes closed automatically and i fell back into those days of joy , innocence and best of it, life. 

Life couldn't be seen from open eyes.

 this was the first thing i realized when i was back from that sea of thoughts. looking on myself in the mirror, i
tried to search for that zeal , for that glitter in my eyes which i had. it might be still there but was now piled
below the gifts of this world. gift like tension , frustation and the worst feeling of them all , being locked in
some unseen prison. we are no more carefree wind. now whenever i open my eyes, i see my plans, my career but the only thing i can't see is life. where is my life that i used to live? lost in the agony of my other searches. now all i can see from my open eyes is this world not life. humans around me working like machines for day and night. the biggest irony is, they are working for making this life happier, by completely ignoring the fact that the cost they are paying for this is their life itself.
can we see it from our open eyes? i guess we can't. we are so busy in seeing the world, those forest of sand and stones. those architectures and man made beauties, that all we want is to possess those things, even if take our lifetime. passion is another thing but to pay the priceless value of our whole life is like giving philosopher stone for gold, when you know that the stone could change anything into gold. Same goes for us, if we want we can make any place a heaven, a worthy place to live, all we have to do is to close our eyes and think what we want from our life. is all work and no fun is what we had planned for our life. and if it is was the planning then why the hell are we working to our blood and bones, if we can't even enjoy our life. what could that money buy which would give you pleasure even when you don't have time to use it. 

can your open eyes take you to a place you would have imagined in your childhood. the life you thought to live when you were just a kid. looking into the calender with beautiful natural pics, you would have said, i will definitely go to this place. Close your eyes and think is this the life you wanted to lead when you were a child. 

Close your eyes and see this life. sometimes it takes darkness to find the ray of light you have been searching for because value of a ray of light can only be realized when it is dark. in the day light just light but in the pitch black night when a ray of light could be valued. so we need to cut our vision from this world to see what we wanted and what we want from this life.
i always appreciate the lovely lines of song sau gram zindagi.
Thodi si meethi hai
Zara si mirchi hai
Sau gram zindagi yeh
Sambhaal ke kharchi hai
Asli hai, jhooti hai
Khaalish hai, farzi hai
Sau gram zindagi yeh
Sau gram zindagi yeh
Sambhaal ke kharchi hai.
one life to live. close your eyes and find it before its too late.
