Struggles in Life

How many times have we passed by the road side, when we see an old man with a copper plate looking at us and begging for money. Is life not a struggle for him?.  Show me one man who has not gone through struggles in life. This term “Struggle” is very relative and quite interesting to dig and see it. I would say that we struggle in life, when we see our need not getting fulfilled and that is when we start fighting and we really put in some effort to fight back the struggle. Some succeed, some hope to succeed, some fail and keep trying with a hope in mind, some give up & some always have reasons to justify their struggle. These options are few of those which distinguish us from each other as an individual. Are all these traits designed even before man was made or is it something that we’ve all acquired over a period of time from generation to generation?. 

Knowledge

What is knowledge?. Can we say that it is obtained by experience or study?. How did our ancestors gain knowledge?. What was the source of information or how was their experience about life?. Do we see ourselves as people who crave for knowledge?. How many of us have compared ourselves with those who were listed as great leaders in history e.g. (Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King. What if I’m there?. What did they all do?. What was so different and unique about them?. Can we say that they brought in a change?. Whether change was for good or bad is not the topic of dicsussion, but it had a result. To me knowledge is just not about studying or experiencing, I want that to bring a change in me and to the benefit of the world. Every human being in the world has knowledge about something or the other, that person maybe popular or not, could be rich or poor, maybe strong or meek but knows something or the other. Do all of us get rewarded from the government for knowing things or recognised by people for that matter?. So it goes without saying that everyone knows something, but few people get to the top because what they knew was either unique or was executed differently.

My discovery of life, is on that path to know things that would make me unique and nothing gives me greater feeling and joy more than sharing the learning with others. Perhaps am I sharing to show people that I know?.  Boast and brag while having discussions to show that I’m better than you?. Sometimes I keep thinking about this, and what fascinates me to do that?. Answer that I get to myself is how deep rooted I’m by sharing my thoughts. I would also love to know what others thoughts are, to see if I make a difference to the learning.

So I just started off this blog to discuss that knowledge has a start but never ends until the day you really close your eyes forever. What is your thought on knowledge?…
