Listen to this song ... Aashayein (Iqbal)
kuch paane ki ho aas aas
koi armaan ho jo khaas khaas ...
toofano ko chirke
manzilon ko cheen le ...
guzre aise har raat raat
ho khwaishoon se baat baat
What do we have to hope for in life. What do we have to fight for? Nothing at all. When was the last time you felt the desire to win. Studies were not important for most. All other causes we faught for were borrowed. RCA for many was again a foreign cause. We say country is important. But the day we are asked to do something we back out. We want others to fight for it though.
Jobs by definintion lack the concept of winning. And if you think promotion and salary raise is winning, wake up and think again. Feel for that guy in Iqbal who made into the team. Can you ever be that happy? No simply because we are not fighting.
I guess this line says it best : "guzre aise har raat raat ..ho khwaishoon se baat baat". Everynight before sleeping what do you dream for?
The best we could have done was to start up a company. But we missed it. And I regret it now more than anything else in my life. Life gives us a second chance. Kill this man Arjun Singh. Fight for your country. But no thanks. We are happy sitting and blogging. BTW thanks to him: we have a better discussion topic than Sachin Tendulkar's bad cricketing performance.
Well there's nothing to worry about. Yes the feeling of fighting and winning is completely missing from our lives, but 99% of the human race dies this way.

I wonder why winning is so important...so as to warrant a desire necessarily... I mean its great to win .. but its more important i guess to be happy and as some body very aptly put it .. "Its not getting what you want, its wanting what you got.."..
On a different note.. reflect closely and you will find more occasions on which u have been a winner
