School days…


The other day someone was saying “how can I bear this pain? I no longer want to live..want to end this life.”

I asked her “Do You remember going to your school?

Some teachers were very strict, they might have thrashed you, rebuked you, and punished you, Right?”

If you were an obedient student, you would have not gone through this, but someone from your class might have certainly gone through this.
You would have many times felt like quitting the school or bunking the class.
But it didn’t mean you hated going to school. There were some lectures which you would have loved and some teachers you loved to learn from. And they might have been your favourites.
You might have tried to be perfect after they punished u, you learnt, improved but   for good.
You feel good and it’s an achievement you successfully finished with schooling.”

The same way this world is a school.
When you face tough teachers in life, you do not run away from them.
Instead, find out, why?  What is that needs to be changed in you, what is that almighty expects from you.

You may say there were some teachers who misunderstood you and thrashed you without your mistake then I would say search for the reason why is it so, your answer will be instant. Listen to your conscience. It will be always right.
May be you are not wrong, but god wants to show you some similar situation where you were the thrasher, or he wants to teach you the lesson of forgiveness, or you were judgemental.
If any of this doesn’t hold true for you, then great, dive deeper- this is what your life is for. Exploring..

Explore within you…when you do not get reasonable answers outside.
Explore till you finish with this schooling and come out with flying colors, instead of running away.
