Is life beautiful?

Today a random thought came to my mind why have I named my blog 'life is beautiful'? Is life so beautiful for me when almost all my posts are about hypocrisy or differences in our mindsets or how we are losing our relations or how can we bring a change in the society. Does these things add beauty to our lives? May be not.

Life is not perfect for anyone, nor for any multimillionaire in a city neither for any sage on Himalayas. But it can be made wonderful just by putting little efforts. I came back to my city after a long holiday and  I thought I'm gonna miss out many things like amazing scenery or rivers but that's not true. We just focus on the pollution in the cities or excuses of busy lives but leave out the best parts.

'Early to bed and early to rise' this is what we learn from our kindergarten but by the time we reach college it shifts to 'late to bed and late to rise'. Then we have to hurry back to all our daily chores. But in this fast forward life we miss seeing the sunrise or hear the chirping of the birds or may be just staring at the beauty of the flowers, guessing shapes in the sky or enjoying the rain and much more.

I think it's time to just look out for unique beauty of our place and enjoy new experiences everyday. And all my posts indicate a good change which can make our life's much more beautiful.

Hope

Walking through the wilderness,
where heat burns the skin
                     and lonely nights almost kills my soul
where water is my last wish
                     and where humans are non-existent
But my heart still had a hope to see a better tomorrow

I talk to the trees and expect them to reply
I asked the birds to send a request to God  in the skies
I await a response and the day turned to night
But my heart still had a hope to see a better tomorrow

I heard the sound of the streams
                     and thought my wish was granted
But it was just a broken dream
                    I was still there in the forests
I saw a broad path and wished it to be real
                                     But it was just another darker end
But my heart still had hope to see a better tomorrow

Next day the sun woke me up
and streams of water were all around me
Now I can see the land filled with life
Finally I have reached my destination
and I realized my prayers were accepted
and hope in God keeps me moving on in life.
