Life Mortgaged

As I sit to pen down a few thoughts about human life, I questioned myself “What is the importance of life”? Whom do we live for? Are we living for ourselves or are we living for others? If we are living for others, then definitely we are not leading our life but somebody else is living our life.
Can anyone live a life which has expired? Can anyone lead an insipid life? Does life really exist? What is the meaning of life? Is the other name for life compromise? If yes, to what extent the compromise can go? Can we get to see any single individual who had lead his life to the fullest with all his content?
Can life any time pain? Is life itself a paranoid? How does life treat anyone? Is it for us to extract the best from life or does life offer us anything anytime? And again, when I say anything in the purest sense I mean only positive elements of life. If you are a keen reader of this article, by now you would have observed that till now only questions followed life. So, can we assume that life is questionable? Well, if life is question bank then it should be answerable as well.
According to me life is mortgaged. Yes, life is mortgaged at a bank called destiny. Mortgage at different phases of life and unfortunately, the life bank or bank of destiny does not provide the facility of fore closing the mortgage account. It only has a new account readily available as soon as the old account nears the maturity date. The interest that we are required to shell down towards the mortgage account in the life bank is the finest ingredient of one’s own life at that respective phase. And yes, if we fail to pay the required EMI, obviously it adds up till the next phase of life and you are made to blow down the penalty which will cost a sky.
Ah, you can never have the privilege to beg for a waiver from this bank. Each phase of life is vitally important with all the key elements. If any such element abstains, reconciliation with the destiny bank is ruled out. Is ill fate an inherent factor of birth?
One of the traps that’s easy to fall into is filling your life with too many incompatibilities — people, places, objects, circumstances, and activities that just don’t mesh with the person you are on the inside.
When your external reality is out of sync with your inner self, your inner self will resist it. This creates the feeling of wanting to escape your circumstances. You may feel powerless to make big changes, but deep down you’ll still sense a strong desire to “get out” and leave parts of your reality behind. You’ll fantasize about quitting your job, moving out, or ending a relationship.

It’s easy to lose years of your life while surrounded by incompatible energies. This problem is so common that some people just consider it normal. They figure it’s normal to dread going to work or to feel disconnected from the people around them. This may be common, but it certainly isn’t a healthy situation.
When you look at the different parts of your life — your career, health, relationships, spiritual practice, daily habits, and finances — and ask, “Is this really me?” do you hear some no’s? How long have you been tolerating these incompatibilities? Why don’t you simply kick them out of your life, so you can replace them with something more compatible?
Some people think it’s a good thing to tolerate the parts of life they don’t like. That’s dumb. Tolerance isn’t acceptance. Tolerance is resistance. To be more specific, tolerance is resistance to love.
When you fill your life with energies you must tolerate, you prevent yourself from attracting what you really want. The more incompatibilities you tolerate in your life, the fewer compatibilities you’ll be able to attract and enjoy. Keep this up for a few years, and you’ll be drowning in a life that feels totally wrong for you.
What bothers you about your life? What are you tolerating right now? I’d like to challenge you to stop tolerating your life. Either fully accept it, and love it as it is. Or kick out the incompatible parts to create the space for a life you’re able to love and accept completely.

  1. As i read through your blog, i can bet this is a common thought that every on has in their head. Why do we live....The fact is like you rightly addressed we are too resistant to change in life. We are scared to see a free world. I personally think we are scared as we dont know what it is to be free. I like the way you have compared it to the mortgage situation. We spend about 60 to 80 years only to realize "I wish I lived my life the way i wanted" ...
