when the life gets complete?

When does the life gets complete?

I often used to get this question... I get answers as questions in turn... ;)

1) Is that when you get good marks in your 10th std or 12th std?
2) Is that when you get placed in campus interview?
3) Is that when you get handful of money and you find ways to spend it?
4) Is that when you find a girlfriend, lover or soulmate?
5) Is that when you raise a family all by yourself?
6) Is that when you retire and enjoy the rest after working for all these years?
7) Is that when you die?

Huh.. only these many questions? :-D

Then.... I decided to answer these questions and find a meaning to myself.

A1) Nope. I used to feel.. if we study well in 10th or 12th and get a seat in good college... then life will get settled all by itself.... but I realized later... life is a continuous learning process.. so is the professional life too.
A2) Nope. I thought life will be easier if we get placed thru' campus interview... but then most of the people who got placed thru' campus interview have grown up the ladder in the same company.. but did they really exploit their talents... I guess no. I always felt I got things the hard way... just like my first job :) but that has moulded me well... to face even a crisis.
A3) Nope. Indeed it was a pleasure to spend the way you like and enjoy life.. but we came to reality I had to take a personal loan to meet a big expense :-D so saving whatever you can when you have something surplus will save your a** was the lesson learnt.
A4) Yes and No. Having girlfriend is a fashion.. is it? hmm... I did not fall into that.. but I found a girl who will be suitable for me... and she turned to be my soulmate(not just wife).. life was complete then... you can say life is kind of complete only when you find a soulmate...
A5) Nope. When you raise a family all by yourself... you get to know the pain your parents have gone through to make you complete... and you do the same thing for your kids... so this goes on in a cycle.. and most people get lost in time :(
A6) Nope. After working for all the years.. do you think you can sit and enjoy? hmm... from what I have seen, people who have really worked(NO.. its not same as going to office everyday and having no ethics for yourself to do your duty) can't sit idle.. so want to contribute something for the society... but having worked for all these years... they get tired easily by seeing the current state of affairs...
A7) Nope. When you die... your name fades away with time... your memories too.. unless you have made difference while you live(NO, its no same as just counting days, weeks and years.... it is to learn, to teach, to follow and to do your contribution to the society).

After answering the questions.. only one thing striked me.. that is

"Time is NOW"

If you get a chance to make a change then don't hesitate to grab the oppurtunity... but don't keep waiting for the oppurtunities.. sometimes you need to create a chance by yourself... and let people realize their potential... and make this practice a chain reaction.

Having said all these... will my life be complete then?

It WON'T :) I don't want it to be complete... but I will live forever in memories and the chain goes on and on... and make life a cycle.

- Leaders are made.. not just born(forget about politicians son turning another politician :-p

In karan johar's film Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, Amitabh Bachchan conveys a similar message at the end of the song "rock n roll"....he says "wakt mathlab abh" ie "time is now"....great minds think alike :P
