Realisations

Was watching " The Matrix Revolution" the other day, in the third part there is a scene enacted by Trinity and Neo where Trinity is about to die in the space ship and she remembers, recollects the first time Neo saved her life...

As she faces death, she realises that she has so many things to convey to so many loved ones and especially to Neo. She marks the importance of the moment by mentioning that her last wish was to say sorry to him but instead she confesses her love. It was then that she takes her last breadth and dies.

It touched my heart in many ways, made me think of what i would be wishing for; at that crucial moment when the stark reality of this world will grip me through. Where there will be no space for lies, negativity or corruption and all one will wish for is good.

Some of the things that I have decided to do is to speak up my feelings, concerns and gratitude to those who owe it, deserve it and not be held back by ego, wrong beliefs and sometimes even etiquette. Normally as a child we learn to express, are taught good manners and informed about the world...many inhibitions take over and we lose the real essence of life. in this moment of truth, I have taken this resolution to do, share and live life to the fullest. ( truly speaking i have yet to find out the extent of "living life to the fullest")

  1. Hey! Thats a great one... death is more like a reminder if you are a spectator of the futilities of life and the power of existence... for me, it was a hard kick with realities staring at me in the face and i was backed by no answers, only questions.. so yes! unfortunately, all the saints and prophets have been tellin you the very same thing... in different ways.. but we are so busy in the web made by us that we dont really care... but all in all, good stuff, keep writing!

  4. Hi, yeh i second what workhard has said above, it really is true.

    One should always let her/his loved ones know how much they love n care for them cos u dont know if u will be able to convey all that to them tomorrow or no.

    Life is so unpredictable, one moment u are here, the very next u r not. We should all learn to cherish each n every moment of our life that we have spent wid our loved ones rather than regret the same towards our end. We should learn to derive happiness from all the small things that our life offers to us rather than constantly seek for or worry for things which are way out of our reach. Once u have learned all this, u will find yourself to be the most content person on this earth, believe me.

    Love is not about mutual give or take or about demanding, it's about giving unconditionally and sharing your happiness as well as your sadness with the person u love and for whom u care. People, when in love, generally say the phrase "I have fallen in love with xyz....", I have said it too :), but over the time i have realised that when someone falls in love, he loses his head and balance in life. So one should never "Fall" in love in such a manner, but should rather try to "Rise" when in love. As far as i am concerned, the phrase that best suits me now is "I have risen in Love .....".

    Hey guys, hope i have not been too philosophical or something in my approach here, just wrote down the thought process that was going on in my mind when i was reading this topic. I know i have deviated a bit from the actaul topic, sorry for that.........
