My 2013 : Starting of 'Aspiration'

My word web describes 'Aspiration' as - "A cherished desire".

Yes.

Well, to begin with. Entering first blog post of 2013, why not keep '2013' as the theme itself. :)

So glad to be blessed continuing to live beyond 2012 from 1991. Nearly 21 years of existence among this place called - EARTH among a society called - WORLD.

Cutting back to the theme; What is Aspiration???

I am still not wise enough to give a good answer to my question. But the above line depicts what I started to believe, is my answer...

Why 'Goals n Dreams' came in something which my dictionary defined - DESIRE ?

It is a neatly woven intricate pattern that appears simple to the naked eye because of masterful skill of weaving by the MASTER.

If we consider ourselves master of our lives, then YES, you have  been weaving this pattern mixing the three threads - 

DESIRES - DREAMS - GOALS.

Please do not mistake me, I yet do not know if The woven garment is the RESULTS.

It may or may not be.

Because some see the garment, while I would like to see just 'the pattern' on what I call is the Cloth - a Base - which is LIFE.

So basically Your Desire should start turning into Dreams, which will be fruitful when they become your Goals and finally these Goals give a meaning to your life when they Showcase Your PATTERN - The Master's Skill.!

My 2013 : 

Yes. I have been desiring, and proceeding into my next steps.

I have lived 21 years of "Mediocrity". 

I said to myself long enough till now,  that
Middle class values have not yet linked aspirations in their list.
You have to be on the safe paths.
Priorities should focus on family ALONE.
Bigger things are unknown variables to us.
Simple living means simple desires.
We have always been at the middle and stay in the middle. 

I am - Now different from these BELIEFS.

My life will definitely have the clashes of Priorities ; Interests ; Responsibilities.

It is going to be the most important Managerial skill to weave MY PATTERN with these variable colourful threads.

That Struggle is what I aptly call as -

MY LIFE MANAGEMENT.

 

Cherishing the struggle to create your own paths; Resolving the determination to go ahead, Putting belief in nothing more than your faith on oneself and something Supreme, and finally 

Love.

♥

There is no greater force that catalyses a Man beyond LOVE.

As I begin the starting of my Aspiration, towards some paths, I would like to say these lines of inspiration to all the ones traveling in their own -

 ~ Good things come to those who wait, 

but better things come to those who work for it!!! ~

 ☀ 

One day when your Life will flash before your eyes...make sure its worth watching.

My Special Destination : Holy Amarnath Temple

Date of Visit : June 28, 2012. (Summer)

 Well why should this destination be so special??
I have many answers, but importantly  it was my conscience which told me to go to a place where I'd touch my first snow and remember it all my life.

After completing my engineering with Distinction, unlike many of my peers who have planned and went ahead with Goa trips, I was not at all interested in that now.

I knew I had a great time right now to do some incredible journeys with the same money and time.

So I followed my heart and scrutinized all possible destinations, mostly which I haven't ever heard and knw nothing. Somehow when I chanced upon the this Holy temple description, it stroke an aspiration of proving something to myself. With some necessary Planning I zeroed on  15 Day tour covering a good stretch of the Northern part of our country, i.e

Delhi-Jammu-Srinagar-Baltal-Amarnath-Katra-Amritsar-Kurukshetra.

For the Good sake I'd say let me not delve into the finer details of all these places at once.

I'd say now in this Post only regarding MY TREK to the Holy Amarnath Temple.

In short bullet points, for those who would be interested to know -

• Keep a Strong Heart because it is to be taken for granted that this place is dangerous due to "Uncertainty" of either the climate, your Health, or fate.

• Keep faith onto something, anything that you believe, because you would not like to stay empty minded all through the journey.

  Important : This is not a place to be visited just before you die. It is something much beyond a travel destination... I personally feel every person will have a unique feeling about his purpose and experience of visiting it.

• Keep a short company i.e group of 2-4 at max. You will not be able to manage beyond that number to stay as a group at all.

• Pre-decide your alternative. If someone is going to fall behind/sick/accident etc. What to do?

• Since there will be no communication devices(No cell signal). Do not lose sight of any member of your group at all.

  The best way for those who don't want to trek ( afraid of dangerous path/pony/stamina) is - Helicopter (in return path preferably).
  
  

  I trekked  only one way. 
  2 people - me and my cousin Brother, SAGAR.
  Our return was on pony. 
  (The reason for that - we both being fallen sick and it almost got late evening)

  ~ ~Yet there is lot more to it..., which I'm not sharing here.~ ~
  

  #Highlight in Return Journey was -

  
  

  Walking right across Ice glacier in the most dangerous path I'd seen at 10Pm in just the Moonlight and still returning safely back to the LAND.
