empty vessels eh!!!

a friend of mine today told me with much enthusiasm ... he was totally idle for over 2 minutes and it was bliss according to him... since it was all of a sudden i tot about tamil comedian vadivelu and his comedy strike in a movie about placing a bet for being totally idle for over an hour... for my current situation while i am sitting half the day jobless , i tot about my bloody self to within that fraction of a second...

my friend was too serious about what he said , n i asked him what he meant... thats when he told me about some mentors who had been to his college and during a common question hour in his class... it seems the mentors had asked the students... what would u like to do in life... when all said ambitious answers... my friend asked me if i could guess what he said , being a friend of mine for sometime i tot it should be something wild... truly his answer was not only wild... but made me think for a while and in depth... his answer was "eat well and sleep well"...

do we even realize what it means to "eat well n sleep well"... a heavy lunch or dinner and a drunken sleep is not what is meant over here... do what is right... help the needy... earn what is rightful , do no evil , think no evil , smile , relish your food and sleep tight...

how many of us are able to do this now a days... i tot my drunken sleep was more than all i required... but today i made myself think and all i realize is... amidst all of life frolics if i am able to still convince my self to sound sleep , and if i enjoy 25 % of it... it really means that there is more to life , and it is possible to get a peaceful sleep , only if have a watch over our actions through out the day...

in spite of my principles ... never covet not just another mans wife , but even a girl friend , never cheat , never steal n so on... i ve realized that i still have a lot more disturbances in life... i ve started to realize them , and the best we , tho i chose it long time ago , i think i should practice it more... speak out... but speak out to trusted people... else vent it out like in blogs... you would notice kilos and kilos of unwanted burden just flow out of you...

today man has complicated life so much , that we dont even know how disgusting we have made ourselves... but a simple act of thinking for a minute can reflex our entire life in seconds , refresh them... dump the detestable parts of life... just throw them away... they are not supposed to be within us... and dont you worry such things have no life and are not supposed to haunt u and they will not...

speak up people... never stuff yourself... its no good... travel light is not just for vacations... but also for a journey called life...
