” It’s one of life’s great paradoxes …
Accepting with gratitude whatever life throws at us
is critical to happiness.
Yet without a goal and commitment, life lose much of its value.
The best we can do in the face of this paradox
is to play to win, but be cheerful in defeat
and ready to play again.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie “
My goal is to learn or try as many things as possible before I go. Sometimes I succeed sometimes , due to my own limitations, I have to retreat . I feel frustrated and depressed for some time then try some other thing.
My only consolation is that even GOD has limitations.
Even GOD can’t put the clock back.
As I’m unable to draw and paint due to eyesight problem, its photography I have started. Inching forward, I may one day capture a masterpiece.
Hope for best.
I’ll quote Jack here-” Efficient goal work includes recognizing and resolving all guilt, inner conflict or limiting belief that might cause one to sabotage one’s efforts. By setting clearly defined goals, one can subsequently measure and take pride in the achievement of those goals. One can see progress in what might have seemed a long, perhaps impossible, grind.”
Here are some of photographs taken by me.
You have a super good attitude, Indira
