    About this ebook

    Grab life into your fist!

    It’s time to change our opinions…

    This is serious if we mistakenly think that problems let us down. It’s not just a mistake but a disease hidden inside our souls that make us shallow. Change the way you think and notice life getting easier from today. Make your problem "a true friend" – one that gives you strength to face any situation and makes your life a gift.

    We are alive because we breathe, but how many times do we thank the oxygen that keeps us alive? Honestly, we never do. Life needs our attention not because it’s a kind of god but because by paying a little attention to life around us can show us ways to solve problems, makes us love and helps us lead a beautiful life.

    Life can give you more than your empty space can give you. All you have to do is have a conversation with it.

      The Simple Joy Of Stitching

      INTRODUCTION

      Life is full of happenings. It is filled with so many different colors, where moments are filled with incidents. Incidents make us react. Reactions decide whether we are going in the right or wrong direction. We count life by time and life counts us by living it. Yes, life counts us. We care about those who got life by us. They are our children. We love them. We care a lot for them from their birth till the end of our time. We do all possible things for their bright future and work hard for their happiness and prosperity. Now give this a little attention: since we are responsible for each step of our children, we are called their parents. At any cost, we never let our children down. It means that we are the creators of life in the form of our children. Humans give birth to humans. We care a lot for them. In the same way, Life gave birth to all of humanity. It has created us. We are parents because we give birth to our children. Life is our parent because it gives birth to us and gives us the sense of living. Life is the parent of all mankind. Now think, being our parent can life stop caring for us? No. That’s why life always counts us by our living! What we do and how we do it, where we are on earth, where we live, what our conditions are and the like. The duty of life is the same for all of us, the duty to look over our Living. To get Life is obviously important but to Live it is most important. A vehicle without fuel is a waste to have…

      As we all are part of life, we go through the same happenings with time. I must share my opinions with you on how I have seen Life. It may not be essential for you to listen. For me, though, it is very important to tell. Maybe by listening to my opinions, you can make your opinion about life and it may be helpful to you, somewhere. According to me, knowing our opinions on life makes life easy and more interesting. I will love it if you find your opinions on life. Life is a painting by a child who doesn’t know perfection, but just puts the colors on the canvas and brings his joy to life. A child only can use the colors freely, as if he is a master of painting. A painting that may not have any meaning, but is full of colors, full of freedom, and most importantly, is the result of an activity in which a child gets pleasure while doing it is amazing. After having a look at it, one can ask what this weird sketch is. It is actually not weird. It’s a journey with many adventurous destinations that one has gone through, or is going to pass from. It’s all those incidents and moments that you may have lived in the past. It’s all the upcoming events in the future which have to come in to your life, yet. These things need explaining. But you can see it in a piece of art painted by a child with many colors, without any discipline or rules. If you see yours or anybody’s life from beginning to end, it can never be seen in discipline. Life never gives the situation in a sequence. It gives what you never expect.

      Let me explain that. Can you remember your past completely? Whatever has been passed through your whole life before today? Or, can you see your future completely? Do you have absolute clarity on what is going to be happen? Obviously not! Let us assume that it is possible. Let’s assume that you remember your past and you know your future very clearly. Now, put all this on a big canvas, assuming that you are a child and all these happenings are colours, paint the picture. Do you think you found a meaning, or a sequence in that painting? I am sure that there would be no any sequence or meaning. But it will be definitely filled with many different colors. It proves that when you live your life, you fill it with different colors from the happenings with freedom in your style. You take decisions to do good or bad. You do it this way because situations come to you and force you to take a decision. You take time sometimes, and sometimes don’t. At the end, you take a decision and take a step. A new situation comes to you and the old one becomes a thing of the past. In the same way, good, bad, wanted and unwanted situations come to you and you meet them and let them go. But not a single moment or happening in life intimates you before it came to your room. That’s why when we look back at our past; we get a picture with many colors. No meaning for others, but you understand each brush mark in it. Of course you will. After all, it’s your picture. It’s your painting of LIFE. A full of colors, weird, unusual, undefined, painting - LIFE! What is it that we can or should do with that painting? We try to find meaning, which can give an answer that will satisfy the questions on our mind and soul. Isn’t it?

      Why? Why do we need an answer for every situation in our lives? Why don’t we accept the situation? Why don’t we just enjoy and live the situation that comes to us every moment? Life itself appears as a painting with plenty of colors. It wants you to look towards the different situations. Why should we search for a meaning in it? I think, we do a research for answers and results of each situation, because according to our nature, we want to overcome all the situations with a perfect solution. We do this because there is anxiety within us and also hurry, which forces us to find answers soon. This anxiety and hurry is an extension of our ego, which has always ruled over our minds and makes us feel that we are imperfect. Either we have a question or not. But, an answer should be there. To put ourselves a step ahead of the others, we stay ready to give our opinion on anyone’s questions, despite the fact that we have no answers of our own! Puzzling, isn’t it?

      I don’t believe that life throws all the questions to us for the sake of any reason or for us to throw an answer back at it. I don’t think life is a book full of many math questions, and that only if we are able to solve then we are heroes and otherwise we are all just a waste. It sounds strange, doesn’t it? Life is not an exam. Our circumstances or situations are not a class that runs according to periods limited by time. It is not a question paper that needs to be solved in a couple of hours to decide our marks in a subject. It is not a race where the one who comes first enjoys and the one who comes last is a loser. It is a big playground for those who want to play. It is a platform with more opportunities for those who want to grab them. It is an endless safari with lots of adventures. Let your mind think. Understand what exactly you want. If you can count what you want exactly, getting it is no trouble. This is LIFE!

      Life opens up opportunities to you and you either take them, or you stay afraid of taking them

      —Jim Carrey
