What we really want?


He was busy on his laptop deeply emerged in his office work though it was a holiday. His little baby of hardly 2 years old was becomming more and more restless and was doing one or the other pranks which in turn disturbed him a lot. Sometimes she will ask papa whether she was beautiful or not and than a counter question for the answer she got will be immediately fired by her else she will ask how does her dolly look like and when will she able to look like cindrella. Though he answered her all inocent questions with a fatherly gesture but it was evident he was getting disturbed. He could not help it but ask her mother to take care of her.

It was half past the day that he realised what all the fuss behind her witty questions and gestures was.....earlier the day before he has promised to take her out to an amusement park....and the thought of amusement park made her imagine all those witty question in order to make him remind. What she really wanted was his attention to keep upto his promise.

As a kid though we have little aspirations and wishes which becomes so important to us that we only wish for our wishes to come true. Though this continues with us for the rest of our lives. In whatever phase of life we may be the want and need for our wishes getting fullfilled injects new hopes and energy in us. Our lives are a struggle for fullfilment of our dreams, wishes and expectations.

But have we anytime thought What We Really Want? Is it from ourselves or is it from the world around us. As a child we wished we get the toys of our choice or we get uninterrupted attention of our parents, and as a youngster we wished to do all that we liked or wished were free from all the inhabitions of the world/our parents. But as a mature person we do realise our goals and our aspirations and strive to achieve them. We try to be of help to someone and in turn want something in return. A life starting with wishes and dreams ends up becoming a life involving expectations from others and satisfying our wants and needs. We seldom doesnt even want to question ourselves what we really want.

Its hard but true to realise ourselves and question ourselves what we reall y want from ourselves or others. The best way to achive this can be by understanding ourselves our failures and success and providing guidance to others. So as to make it clear for others that what Life really wants from us is that we care for others and share with them their joys and sorrows and bestow a ray of hope for a bright tommorrow. In turn spreading smiles on the little faces of our future.

After all we should realise that Life is a part of this Nature which has always given somuch to all and has never expected anything in return.
