Close your eyes! May be you are alive

As I sit at 11 pm on my desk, trying to figure out the riddle that I could not find an answer, the thought stuck me "Close your eyes! May be you are alive..." We get so embraced in our day to day life that at times we forget if we are alive. Then, our mind starts to wander into a series of question like... Where we started from? Where are we heading too? Is these all I pursuit? Am I too quick to live? Am I too slow to cope up? Did I come to a halt altogether? I had been living my life quite fast. Looking for the short term perks in the form of awards, merits, position, passion... Suddenly, I stumbled onto life. I realized life isn't about what you gain, instead what you feel. I slowed to feel I am alive for the first time. The material in life didn't matter to me… Nor my awards; nor my merits; I felt the world in a new beat. A beat, which had kept me alive... I might look like a dreamer to few. To few more, a mad man in pursuit of nothing. For me I am alive... Isn't it? "When thy shall look at the world in a grain of sand, time shall come to a stand still. When time comes to a stand still thy shall meet the eternity... Eternity is thy pursuit... In thy shall lie thee..." In me you shall find my life. In my life you shall find what your looking for... For I have been living a complete life...
