Why is it that somethings which we really want in life, we don't get them? But then, when was Life about getting what you want.. In true sense, Life is about getting what you want sometimes and not getting what you want most of the times. But what most of us do is to think that we will be happy when we get what we want, life will be good if we get what we want and keep on waiting for eternity to be happy, to be fulfilled.
Fulfillment is not about getting what we want, its about dealing with Life and whatever it throws in and creating happiness for us moment by moment. The critical question here is - How? How do we deal with whatever life throws in, with not getting what we want?
If you are someone like me who would not do anything until unless you choose to do it, then choose what life throws in powerfully. Accept it as your own. Making the choice of accepting a particular fact of life gives us the immense satisfaction of being in control of our life. After having chosen the fact, create for yourself the outcome of the issue you are dealing with. How do YOU want things to shape up? And just commit yourself whole-heartedly.
I think a lot of us are successful in reaching this stage. But what most of us miss out is to enroll other people involved in the issue in what your commitment is. We, Humans, cannot live as an island. We are a constant function of the people around us. And when the issue involves other people, it is very important to enroll them in our commitment and then getting their support in taking action according to the commitment. And take responsibility for the consequence of each action we take because actions always produce consequences.
This is a path I use for being fulfilled in the face of issues and problems in life.

Life is your perception. You think you have a drive to achieve something you will follow it.
Yes sometime life takes you to different direction and it happens with almost every individual.
This is something how the nature's work. Every entity in the nature is linked and every entity has its path. You are also one of the entity. If you want to carve out your own path you will need blessings from nature while if you take another way of carving your path through fight.. nature will strike back with equal force.
Your words are true about how actions are important and they will carve your destiny.
And acceptance towards what nature brings to you is accepting the natural path that has been granted to you.
In acceptance of natural path you are blessed by the nature and nature leads you towards the desination. Toughest thing is to accept your natural path with whole heartedness and acceptance. And second toughtest thing is to know if the path your are following is a natural path.

Well, very well said Asht.. I think that we as humans should fight for what we believe in and work for it.. Coz once we realy believe in something, the whole universe conspires to get us to it.. But accepting what comes in the way is also essential..
Its an old saying - If u get what u want, u should be happy. And if you don't get what you want, then you should be happier coz then you get what God wants you to get. And God always wants you to get the best!!
Btw, Do I know you?? Your blog doesn't reveal much about yourself!!
