Truth

I saw a video that set me thinking and analyzing its truth! The caption was “no one is really a friend”. Hmmm.

Actually, right from childhood and our school days, we make friends. We even depend on them not only for company but for our happy moments spent with them. But the basic reality is that we must accept AND celebrate our dissimilarities and similarities if we want long term connections.

I find relationships like reading new books every day. We get absorbed in them. But if we see a change in the friends we have, we get disoriented. Which means that there are conditional acceptances.

It is the human ego which is at the root of karma. It is the feeling of incompleteness and wanting more to fill that perpetual void within us!

If you have noticed, no ONE person can fulfil all our needs. That is why we HAVE so many relationships, each fulfilling some need.

Ultimately, if truth be told, we ARE alone. We may look for crutches here and there, most of which are temporary. We appear seemingly together, like passengers on a train, but only till our station arrives.

This is not a unique thought but an oft repeated one. However, it does not sink into many minds and they still carry on, living out of the flow of life and suffering for it.
