Random Streaks XXVII

You can learn a lesson from the roads. The roads are not always straight. They bend and turn, make a U-turn sometimes, but they get you to the destination eventually. If you drive straight always, you will never reach your destination, and also end up hitting a block. Same way, don't be stubbornly straightforward in life. Go with the bends and turns, be flexible. Important thing is to reach the destination.
-----
An idea originating in the mind, meeting the right neurons and germinating into action is the same as how a sperm fuses with the egg to produce an embryo. Every idea is therefore your brainchild. Value it.
-----
Most often problems happen in life when life itself is static. You draw a line, and aim to walk only over it. Any deviations upset you, hits your conscience. Instead draw the lines dynamically as you walk and that becomes your path. Your life becomes more comfortable. There are no rules. That is the only rule in life.
-----
'Know' and 'No'; two similar words, worlds apart. One signifies the acceptance into yourself. Other signifies the rejection/refusal from within. But both pass through the same brain passage.
-----
The pessimist starts the day with the worst/sad thought, hoping that nothing can go worse than what he has already thought of. It gives him solace. The optimist starts the day with the best/happiest thought, believing that nothing else can make him sad now. It gives him confidence. Doesn't matter if you are a pessimist or an optimist, as long as your day gets by as you want it.
-----
Most of the dark and hard truth about your life is revealed when you talk to yourself, alone and in silence. We are always true to our self.
-----
Associate all perishable and mortal things (fear, happiness, sadness, lust, anger, etc) with the body; associate all immortal and intellectual things (knowledge, realization, truth, spirituality, virtue, etc) with the soul. Then disassociate your soul from your body. That takes you to the highest state of enlightenment.
-----
Imbalance and In-balance; makes a world of a difference for one letter change.
-----
Some people give out the light, and some people live off the light. World always hangs in balance.
-----
The world functions in binary. Applies to everything including people. There are people who make decisions, and those who follow them. People who believe in God, and people who are atheists. People who like style, and those who like simplicity. It is usually the people in between these two sides who get eliminated first. Remember, you can escape a predator by running fast or sitting still and pretending to be dead, but never by moving slowly.
-----
The same escalator moves up and down. Just align your direction to the flow, and you will always be moving forward.
-----
Enlightenment from the wise will protect you from entrapment by the vice.
-----
When you are young and playful, you see all impossible dreams in bright vivid colors. But as you mature with life's experiences, you see reality in livid, black-and-white. Just two colors, encompassing everything in it. Binary nature of life.
-----
Cars have a reverse gear only to enable you to pull out of where you are parked and then move forward again. Likewise, in life, when you are caught into problems, take a step back in the right direction and then move forward. You cannot remain parked, or continue driving backwards.
-----
If you lose something, then you search for it in the place you lost it. But happiness is one thing that you can lose in one place, but still find it in some other place, and it is all the same.
-----
We are puppets in the hand of God. We have invisible strings attached to us which He holds in His hands to guide us and set our path in life. Just because we can reach up and catch hold of the string above our head does not mean we can control or manipulate it. Who holds the string is more important and powerful than who is bound to the other end of it.
-----
A good manager should manage activities and lead people. But many do it the other way around, becoming a boss instead, as to them people become only project resources to manage.
-----
Man wants to believe that God is always good, and can do only good. Man thinks that God is good to forgive all his sins. But does not think if he is good enough for God. But frankly, why would God save mankind? Won't God do a cost-benefit analysis of it as well? When disease goes beyond control, man is ready to have his own leg amputated. But God should save mankind, even if the race is going out of control. that is the hypocrisy of mankind's thinking.
-----
If you have observed, at the water tap that is slightly open, a water drop forms very slowly, and then when it has formed fully will suddenly drop down to the floor and splatter. Same way in life, problem may seem to be prevalent for a long time like the water drop taking its time to form, but when the time comes, the problem will also get solved quickly. You only plan several options to solve a problem, but you can never plan for the exact solution nor the time that solution will be obtained.
-----
If you don't feel anything in you, then you will fear nothing outside you.
-----
An uneventful is not a peaceful life. Peaceful life is where you feel moments of calm even in a storm!
-----
Being proactive in solving problems is like trying to get down from a train even before you have boarded it. Trying to solve problems while it happens is like getting down from a running train...in life, when faced with problems, take a step back, relax and then focus on the one thing that would either solve the problem or help you live with it. That will make living a lot more happier.
-----
Die to the past, be born again in the present, and live this moment. 
Don't change the order.
-----
The happiest way to live life is to live as a child who just grew old with time, not as an adult who never grew up at all.
