ZINDAGI KA SAFAR

All praises for Allah Karim; Immeasurable Darood-o-Salam on Rasool-Ullah Salalaho Allaihe Wasalam [SAWS].

Prayers for all.

Brother Asif Alvi appended the famous song 'Zindagi Ka Safar; hai yeh kaisa safar?' in his FB status. Yes this beautiful journey requires to be comprehended, interpreted and "LIVED  - ALL RULES APPLIED AND ADHERED".

Focusing on 'Zindagi ka Safar', I witnessed a beautiful demonstration by a Kite: We were on the Golf Course last Saturday - entire flight not having a particularly good round, fighting with our clubs, concocting reasons for not hitting straight and getting crossed with ourselves for missing the one footers. On the 15th Green as we were busy putting, I spotted a pair of Kites building their Nest on the Pine Tree. One Kite flew in with a big branch of a plant in her beak. As she was placing the straw in the Nest it fell down into the water below. I wanted to see some anxiety, some remorse or a dive behind the falling straw but there was none of the three. In fact both flew away, I am certain, to bring in more building material. A little "TATAFAKARUN" told me:

Life is a continuous and sustained struggle. It disregards those who get tired early and has no respect for the 'quitters'.

Depression, negative over drive and anxiety takes nowhere.

No failure means end of life, it must go on with persistent zeal.

Keeping our wits about under adverse circumstances leads to recovery and ultimately to success.

We have to build the Nest (Pakistan) for posterity. We must, therefore, forget the fallen straw and get going to collect material afresh.

Do We agree?

And many thanks Alvi Bhai; I dedicate this post to you.
