Jump off the train.....

Sorry if the post heading is mis-leading - I am not planning or even giving ideas on how to jump off a train!!

The train has a connotation - for me and by me - its the sequential standard and best practice of Life. You know - the kinds like you are born - pass all the major degrees as told - get a fat job - get married - have first kid - then the second - keep working to climb the corporate ladder like many of your co-passengers - feel satisfied with life - wife and kids - start the same chain with your kids - die in oblivion in your own world. The only motion a man goes through on this train is the change of bogies....

The first half of the journey is definitely confined in the train when you are stuck with your parents in one bogie - then Jump Off!!

Dont catch another train - just walk - enjoy everything around - take in the spirits - hear the music - live life for yourself and others who are sometimes thrwon out of the train - the ones which by their unchosen fate are so-called as ''orphans'', ''deprived''. Gain strength - share love - live and die with a smile of utter satisfaction of experiencing the world beyond the train.

Such smile has been enjoyed by many stalwarts who have inevitably jumped off the train - greats in music - social work - literature who as society say ' live beyond the boundries' and are seldom understood by people peeping out from the train. But this doesnot mean you jump off the train with hopes of becoming the Great!! No-one has ever done that - here consequence is not important - its the journey - discovery - experience - sharing which gives you the smile and not what comes out of it.

No train - no sequence - talk to people - travel - meet souls - give the magic touch - smile with people who are grumpy - touch hearts with whatever you have - smile within when you give and get - enjoyyyyyyyyyyyy!!

Life is beyond just the train - enjoyment is at every corner - pick up your soul - love and enjoy...
