The Greatest Movie Of Ones Life

Do you choose to star in it or watch it from the front seat?

When a storm hits, an ocean is turbulent only at its surface; there is abiding calm in its depths which is totally unaffected by the rough and rouge waves that play havoc on everything and anything sailing.

Most of us, by providence or choice, live on the surface amidst the choas of life.

The storm of emotions and the winds of change affect us constantly. We battle the daily ups and downs, dwell over what we have and yearn for the have-nots, are affected for better or worse by people and places around us.

Most of us are at the receiving end of what life throws at us — like a leaf fallen from a tree that is at the mercy of winds and doesn’t know where it will end up next.

But only those amongst us who have read and contemplated the age-old wisdom of sages and dive deep within themselves find true consensus and serenity — a calm like no other— just like the peace and quiet in the depths of an ocean.

These wise-ones made the conscious choice of stepping away from the chaos of everyday existence to understand the true significance of life, ie. the how and why of life.
