The real astuteness of a person lies in how he avoids a downfall. And,
The real strength and courage is how quick he recovers and reclaims from it.

The Enemy Within...
In the race of life, all of us are trying to run against the fierce competition; outperforming and outshining it is no less than Mt. Everest's Ascent . After all, 'its survival of the fittest'. Right, uh? Point Taken!
So busy running we have been that we have never ever thought of our biggest foe. One, who has kept us tied us so tightly, we never have been set free nor will be. It's just like running a race with a thousand pound weight attached to our feet, albeit we never realise. "What nonsense!!" would just be a normal reaction to what all you have just read, & that's exactly how casually we have been taken our biggest enemy.
"Who is it?" is the million dollar question now and a billion dollar answer is "You! Yourself!!"
Gee, how could this be..? Just give it a thought...
1. More often than anything else, our laziness poses the biggest threat to the everyday commitments that we make to make ourselves a better person.
2 . our Inhibitions (tough word, um) always blocks the road to try something new; something different.
3. The fear of being labeled as an 'Intruder' or 'Over-caring' always keeps us from being affectionate, caring and warm to people..
4. Fearful of being 'fussy' or 'childlike' says, "Don't be honest & straight forward. Just keep beating around the bush. Waste yourself and others too"
5. Yeah! We make 'the crowd!' Who cares if being a part of the rat race is just not your true self...
Yes, its too complicated to understand. Just because we've made it so. And the funniest part is, its so much a part of us now that we never tend to think..
Just an after-thought. Try to kill the enemy-within and the battle is all yours!!

A Book called 'Life'
This Life is just like a book. Experiences are the chapters that make up this book. You can't expect every chapter to have a happy ending yet every chapter has its own importance. It knits the whole story together and takes it further too!
There are few persons that stay with you during the entire duration of the story. They are the persons in the 'lead' role or the main characters of the story. Then there are some persons who are there only for some time and have a specific part and role to play. These are the 'Support' artists. Each person, whom we come across, makes up for a paragraphs or two in the book; some may even make up a whole chapter. All these paragraphs, carried together, make the story!
Being the author of our own book and being able to control it to some extent (the rest being in hand of the publisher - the God), its our choice to write it up the way we like. Some end up with a 'Booker Prize'. Rest, just another book in the library of this world.
