My mind is not at rest now, and for the simple reason that, I climbed mountains just so that my mind may be at rest.. but after all that climbing I am not being given a flag to wave from the top!
Worse is that I have no time to waste, 'cause there are several other mountains to climb, that I have noted down on my list... only, to tick them off my list, my mind should be at rest again.. but how can it be, when I know that no matter what you do, no matter how steep a path you traverse to make the impossible, possible.. your fingers might not be even given the touch of the one little flag at the end of it all!
It is quite a test, to kindle a fire, create a benchmark, then watch the benchmark gather dust in a closet.. it might be sifted out sometime, but by that time, you have already moved ahead to other pastures, and without too having been provided with the fuel from your dust-gathering work, for so moving ahead.. you don't even get to live the glory!!
So, okay, it is not best to live for public acclaim, and work for glory... But am only human, and If I keep checking things off my list.. I don't live for love, I don't live for riches.. I don't live for glory, I don't live for acclaim.... what do I live for?? What exactly should keep me going?
I need a quick answer to that... 'cause the one thing that I definitely know, is that I have to keep going, and with full heart...
