Destined for Destiny

“When you really desire something with your heart and soul, the entire Universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist) What a lovely quote, I said. My friend said “it’s all shit”. I said “hey, it’s from my favourite book yaar, it is so very fascinating” she had this indifferent look on her face. Not agreeing, then came closer, again reading it she said “No I don’t believe such things.” And I thought does it really don’t have any meaning. Back to my inner world of thoughts, yeah I can really relate to it….whatever she said. How many times we achieved or got whatever we wanted. Okay when we desired something and got it, lets count…well very few chances that to very itsy-bitsy small desires, wanting something badly and never getting is the usual. Left alone, Universe conspiring in achieving that. You must be thinking “What has whole Universe got to do with me??” and if it’s only about YOU, then what?? Whenever we desire something, the factors – people around us, circumstances, situation and other things, yeah CONSPIRES for Not getting it fulfilled. We all must have felt it. I too have. So, is that quote totally absurd, meaningless. No its certainly not!!! In my opinion, when we desire something with our HEART and SOUL, then its no way we don’t get it. And the Universe too plays it’s role in it. And the Universe here is not for the planets, galaxy and satellites. But it’s the complete whole world around us, both physical and spiritual world. And the conspiracy starts with making sure if we REALLY desire the thing truly. So, checking begins( Hey, isn’t sounding like we are talking of some kind of product, but not for uncovering errors but for an autopsy of living mind). Testing if we deserve what we desire of, the circumstances test us if we really can do anything (in a righteous and positive way) for that. That’s when you feel that you are in a ditch, nothing falling in place. But then the phase is full of difficulties and through Hardship and Perseverance finally you get over it. And then all of a sudden, everything seems so much right, brightness around you. That’s when you pass the test. But it’s not like that. The testing phase is a superlative degree and very few can go at par with it but those are the people who follow their destiny and achieve it. So, it’s not a meaningless quote after all provided if we understand it. In my opinion it’s the essence of Life. If You Can Dream, It’s Possible If You Can’t It Can Never Be.
