What is there to life?

There is more to life

… than getting the desired response to a given stimulus.
… than the worry about how you look like in that dress you bought for a week’s worth of salary.
… than the concept of your colleagues of who you are or were or would be – they are just a very small fraction of the entire world populace.
… than your idea of who you are and your place in society.
… than the fuss over how fat or thin you look now – your size would not matter in the long run, not to you and more so to your loved one.
… than the type of car you take to the office, darn! You can even walk to the office if you wanted.
… than the volumes of work you have done or finished. After the year ends, very few people or none at all remember them.
… than the compositions you wrote and boast of. They are kindergaten work to the real geniuses.
… than the collections of whatever-you-fancy stored in special places. Years from now they could simply be rubbish to the succeeding generations
… than the degree of genius you have. Talk to a child and he wouldn’t know for sure the difference between your intellect and that of a common person.
… than the time you spend reading this or browsing through the million of sites available on the internet.

There is just more to life than all of these. A lot more that we need to discover and appreciate and love. Life ought to be celebrated. Do it while the drive is there. Enjoy it while it lasts. This moment is just a grain of sand in eternity. See first the what right here right now before you look beyond. Treasures are scattered in disguised somethings. Learn to recognize them. See them as real and smile with the knowledge that you know better than you did when you woke up this morning.
