point blank

Introspecting since morning and wondering what is our purpose in life from the time we were born.This happens especially when you see loved ones around you peel off like a dried flower or a leaf in the early years of life due to unexpected, unanticipated situations that turn out to be life consuming.What if one just draws a blank in life when all is going well and then it stops.......point blank.No tell tale signs , and it comes to you as a shocker.
We cry when we arrive into this wicked world, try to adapt ourselves to the environment,grow up with 100% innocence and fun in the toddler years and then start shifting gears to face the competitive world.We then try to use the energy and youth against an ego that keeps challenging you to show what you are to the world.You end up going flat out and burn your self up making money to get more money and eventually one day have all the luxuries but no time to enjoy.
If you do step back and allow yourself to set a limit , be it a personal, professional, financial goal let that be the point after which you settle down and pace down to enjoy what you have rather than end up on the hospital bed with your insurance claims settling the money and the medicines polluting your naturally healthy body.
What is the point if you have millions stashed away and then you draw a blank in your life may be in the early years.
To me I ask my self where do i want to set the goal.For theoretical purposes i follow these points below:
age : 70 years------Maximum, no regrets in life, no burden on anybody,thank god for giving me this opportunity.
House: a basic shelter that can save you from the rough weathers with no add on accessories to impress others.Its my home, anyone wants to join feel free but this is what it is.
food: 2 times enough to survive and enjoy the day.More you eat , more the complications.Give your digestive organs some time off.they are overworked with no bonus, no incentive .Therefore they can decide to go on strike...
Money:How much is enough??????Its never enough!!!!But honestly if 2 square meals , a house of your own where you need not pay rent,a set of good genuine close friends and relations who could be of help on a rainy day is what one needs.
Ego: negative-------do you want to show the world who you are or enjoy what you are?
Property and investments: For your next generations don't worry,they will build their own as you cannot take them with you neither will they have peace of mind if you give them a share that is unfair.
Bottom line: Live this moment and give as much as you can .........you never know when all that you have can be taken away at any point.
