Movies have the power to transport one into another story, a
different realm and if one can really let go of reality, it elevates them to
whole new world of ideas, emotions and inspirations.
This is going to be a combination of two blogs that I
planned to write, and I am going throw out another idea before merging the one
above with it. Ask yourself this question, what are the three most important
things in your life? Money? Power? Love? The new Assassin’s creed game (Trust
me, it disappoints)?
The three most important things in life is the REM.
Relationships Experiences Memories. REM sleep is the most important criteria
for normal functioning of the human body and same way this REM is the single
crucial piece that is required for the normal functioning of human life itself.
So trying to go back to where I started ( I do get lost a
lot!) a simple movie made me realize that we so easily give up on our goals and
wishes in life because of things like responsibilities and burdens and yes, the
going gets tough at times. But it is NEVER too late. True happiness can only
come from pursuing your dream and achieving it and (Yes I am being DEEP and
philosophical, isn’t that what people do on this blog crap?).
Think back,
introspect, figure out that one dream you always had, and go do it. It will add
up to the Experience part of REM and who knows maybe it becomes special enough
to be a memory.
We value things like money way more than our relationships
with people, heck, we even build relationships with the end goal being money.
But in fact if we kept the GOAL in our life to be the REM (For those who
already forgot, Relationships, Memories and Experiences) and everything that we
do in life aimed at that goal, it would be like a dream. There are times when
you “WISH” that you had something, you were someone else, (I am still too young
for a midlife crisis, but why not just avoid it completely?), you meant
something more to people…
That is the time my dear friend to make a change. That is
the time to set out a goal and that is the time to start living, for the first
time! (The script! Look it up).
You might have heard all this along the way, but we tend to
forget and forgive. Don’t! Do not forgive yourself for letting go of your
dreams. Don’t forget what is most important to you.
Go out! Meet new people, form new relationships, fall in
love. Do crazy things, establish new experiences, some maybe good, some maybe
bad (Heartbreaks and Hangovers? :P ), and who knows you might end up with
beautiful memories.
I had given up on my dreams; I had even forgotten what they
were! And a simple 90 minutes of a movie made me realize that what an idiot I
have been ( I have been told that many times, but, well I am just an arrogant, egoistic
and stubborn kid!). Even though its 1 AM in the morning, I feel that I have
just woken up from a very long sleep.
And with all the goodness of my heart (I am just so humble),
I share this with you and hope you can wake up as well. Get out of the matrix,
be free, and if you can, WELCOME to your new life!
