The Clip

Ever since the beginning of human beings, there has always been the urge to being the most powerful and stronger one. All the fights, wars, everything happens just to prove who is the greatest of all.

Even after so many centuries, to date, we have the same urge. We all want to bang the first position in the race of power, strength, capabilities, etc. All our life we keep proving that we are the best, but does that even matter? Who the hell are we trying to prove ourselves to? There's no one to give the judgment. Even after putting every effort to be the highest, do we ever get satisfied?

Just one drawback, one mistake, one weakness, destroys all the empire you built. Your Wealth, your power cannot stand forever. It is not at all possible to be the strongest, time will come when you have to be inferior.

clothes peg

Now, look at the photo above. What we see is just an ordinary clothes peg used for hanging up clothes to get dry. Sometimes, what we do not understand our whole life, our nature makes us understand in a far better way and that too in a second.


Isn't it strange, that this ordinary clip is used to hold the clothes, even when it is so small and can be broken easily? It withstands strong winds, heat, every difficulty but never leaves the hold of the cloth.

Hence, it is not at all necessary to be the most powerful or the strongest. What matters is how content you are with yourselves. The clip has to hold the clothes all day, just because it is fulfilling the job contently it withstands almost every obstacle.


We all have to stop running after gaining power and think about what real power is. Is it the happiness that you want to achieve or the never lasting race for wealth, strength and power. Just keep this in mind that all the people who tried to prove themselves strong by making others sad could never stay strong enough to fight their weaknesses. No one can ever steal your satisfaction, but YOUR POWER, YOUR WEALTH CAN BE EASILY STOLEN.

NATURE IMAGES ( The Kingfisher )


Concentration is a must for each and every work that we do. We can never do our best if we remain distracted while performing our respective tasks.

Of all the successful people that we know, no one took his/her goals lightly. Not even one of them denies the fact that one should remain focused while performing his/her tasks. Take the example of Albert Einstein. He was not at all interested in what he was taught in school. Hence, he never focused on that but, he never lost his focus from what he was interested in.

nature images

All the great people that we know, devoted all their lives to their motives, to their respective fields without even thinking of anything else. At that moment people like us used to taunt them but we all remember the focused ones and not the distractors.

Now, look at the nature photography above, we see a Kingfisher. Kingfisher is a beautiful bird that we all love to see. This bird is a perfect example of  " concentrate on your goals and one day you will achieve them ".
nature photos

Whenever we see the bird it always keeps staring at some point or a thing, unless and until we disturb it. Kingfisher keeps concentrating on its prey and the moment it feels that this is the right time, it attacks its prey at once with its full strength.

This is a true lesson to all of us that whatsoever may happen never get distracted from your goals. Never let anything steal your aim from you because, in the end, PEOPLE LIKE TO HEAR YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS NOT YOUR EXCUSES.

NATURE IMAGES ( The Moon )

We are always worried about our looks. Our surroundings have made us think so, and this anxiety keeps rising every time we step out.
Whenever we talk about beauty, we give examples of the moon and other celestial bodies because of their resemblance. Everything that is pretty to see and matches our imagination of beauty is what we call beautiful.

















As we always have heard " beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder ", and it is true. What we feel is beautiful may not be the same for the others.
Beauty lies in each and every creation. We look at the moon, we praise it, look at the stars, we praise them and move on. Does beauty only lie in things?


Now here is the moon itself, you say it is beautiful, I say " NO, it is not ". Look at the moon carefully we see a lot of flaws there. The white beautiful ball filled with dark spots which never let the moon fully shine bright. Now the light coming from the moon, as we all know, is not of its own, it is the light coming from the sun that makes the moon look beautiful to us. Have you ever thought, after looking at the lone standing moon, Oh Wow! the sun is so nice and beautiful that it lets the moon look so pretty? No, we never say that.


So, all the things that seem beautiful but are not, you can say that it is all the matter of what side of the face are we looking at, the brighter one or the dull one. Because each thing looking beautiful may not be beautiful, on the other hand, the ugliest may be the prettiest of all. Same is the case with humans. We judge each other the moment we catch a glimpse, irrespective of the inner beauty that is just an interaction away. But do we interact with every person that we meet? No.

Hence all the things are beautiful because they are made by the beautiful. The creator is to be praised not the creation alone. We cannot always see the beauty at first, we see what at the other person presents us first, THE BEAUTY OR THE BEAST!

NATURAL PHOTOGRAPHY ( Green leaves )

Our lives are just like the green leaves in the images. We are born, do our deeds and leave the world alone. These green leaves depict the same, as the leaves represent us and the tree is the world. We never get to choose the family, the religion, the caste or the country in which we are born it is all set
by the Almighty, the same way the leaves never know as to which tree they belong to, it's just when they are born they learn what they are taught and what has been chosen for them.


Look at the natural photography above these leaves look so pretty and always stand for themselves even in the harsh times. The ones that are weak and cannot conquer the obstacles get detached from the branch and get decomposed. Try to relate it to our lives. The factor that matters the most is our upbringing. The way we are brought up, are taught to fight our difficulties and handle the situations matters a lot.



Parents and their teachings are like the tree and it branches to the leaves like us, they keep holding on us and never let us fall, they provide us with all that we need to survive the hard times and fulfill all our needs. But once we try to disobey them and leave their support, we destroy ourselves.


When we are with them we do good things, make everyone proud and the whole world applauds us just like the green leaves that stand high and pretty, and we all love them. But once the leaves get dry and fall apart we the ones who use to love them, when they were green, step on them. The same happens with us when we try to free ourselves from our parents and their teachings, our world falls apart, we are no longer appreciated.

All the above happens and we get destroyed, but do you know what the best part is nothing happens to the tree, the tree remains the same, it again gets NEW LEAVES AND EVEN BETTER ONES.

NATURAL PHOTOGRAPHY (THE DRY LEAF)

Remember my first post?
It was about the responsibilities (the webs) and the precious moments (the dew drops) in them. This is an extension to that post.
Now, look at the picture above. We already know that the web stands for our day to day responsibilities and the dewdrops represent those precious moments that make us enjoy and cherish those responsibilities.
In the above natural photography, we see a dry leaf trapped in the web full of dewdrops. That leaf represents us.  We are same as that dry leaf stuck in the web.
The more we try to free ourselves from these webs the more we get entangled.
We are surrounded by a lot of webs, responsibilities, stress, precious moments that make us happy, etc, etc, when held together is called life. We are never free from our duties and can never delay cause this dry leaf and its web is bounded by time and the creator. As the time passes by the leaf and the web gets destroyed, so it is the leaf's prime duty (again a duty) to complete the given task in time and cherish those moments side by side, because, TIME NEVER GIVES YOU TIME.

Hence, we have to cherish even the bad because the drier you are the faster you decompose. And don't we all like green things more than the dry one. So THINK AND EXPLORE.

NATURAL PHOTOGRAPHY (Greenery)

RAINY

Whenever we hear the word GREEN, what strikes us first?
NATURE!!!
Nature is just like our parents. Just like our parents, nature keeps us blessed in its warmth, always look after ourselves.
Take a look at the pictures, what do you see? Leaves, trees and the raindrops in the focus. Aren't these trees the reason behind the rains, we can say that rain originates from the trees (the greenery) just like we are from our parents.
The trees give birth to the process of rain and when the rain falls it makes those trees look more charming and beautiful. This process is the same as parents upbring us with the best they can do for us, give sacrifices and let us to the way to our success.
Maybe what we do is our decision which leads us to our success but that ability to make decisions is given to us by our parents. When we achieve success it is not us who feel the happiest , its our parents, just the same way when rain pours and the whole nature seems grooming and happy.
Thus we need to understand that walking on the way which our parents ask us to is never a wrong decision . It will always lead to our success and thence our parents' success.

NATURAL PHOTOGRAPHY (The web)


In whatsoever you try to find beauty in nature it will never disappoint you, for example, beautiful nature photography.
Life never disappoints us by giving ups and downs, the same way nature gives us the seasons.

FROZEN

What we see, is natural photography containing dew drops on a web. 


Normally webs don't attract us, do they? But the dewdrops make it look so beautiful just like a DIAMOND NECKLACE. Don't our lives offer us the same experience?

We have our webs, the burdens, and responsibilities that we are bounded to, but the special moments, just like the dewdrops in the photography, make them so special that we never stop ourselves from stepping in those webs.

Sometimes the webs are our choice , while the other times they aren't, but each web has its own dew. Maybe we can't find the PEARLS, in the beginning , we have to focus at them just like the nature images, but even if we find them late they never let our expectations down , they give us satisfaction that matters in the end like these beautiful photos.
