Philosophy is the positive sense of the mind which helps to keep one always energetic. It is not the sign of the hypocrite but the strength of the brave. The real truth of life is that it never been fair to any one and for ever. It has its own compositions with happy and sad notes. A man, who works on the street by selling few toys daily or the man, who is earning crores every minute, everyone has a story of struggle in his day-to-day life. The basis of sustained struggle is the Philosophy, the one we believe in. It comprises the good education, culture and principles and ethics where as Success is a matter of luck.
Yes, every one of us knows that there is no end for desire for success, there is no demarcation of standard of life, etc... 'Yes' but, it is all there in the mind and if that is well trained with a bit of Philosophy then the same life can be better lived and enjoyed. As you would have herd many people saying ki every thing is good in my life but, I am not satisfied or even sometimes we say that the food is good but, I am not satisfied, etc... Why it is so? Because, the materialistic world is external but satisfaction is internal. To feel satisfied we need to train our soul and that practice comes from the thoughts and the thoughts are influenced by Philosophy.
It is said that, ‘Philosophy rarely interests anyone who is happy and content. It is always a subject of people who seek for peace and happiness beyond materialistic world or the people who want to overcome the shortfalls of their life.’ In a sense it true, because people realize certain things a hard way. When we feel like everything we have in life is going to be lost or when everything we possess in life fail to bring the satisfaction, which are the true goals of life.
Many a times we have come across situations in life, where young or youth saying, 'STOP! Philosophy, we already know it, what you are going to say. I don’t like it'. At that moment the elders in family should tell them the meaning and essence of what they are telling and why they are insisting on something to agree and follow. But, it should not force to accept in any case. It will be well understood in due course and then even they start basing their decisions on whatever they have learnt and experienced in life.
A small dose of it helps people to come out of their present situation, depression or fills energy in them to fight the life's challenges. You would have observed that every one of us have our own favorite quotes or sayings or poems or stories or movies, which are very close to our heart and time and again they help us to take the right path with strength, confidence and hope. So, in that case Philosophy is God's grace or indirect message for better life!
I have observed many times that philosophy gives a chance to analyze between good and bad, right and wrong when we are in confused state. It builds ethics in individuals and guides them throughout our life in a right direction, even when no one is around. Our character is nothing but an evolved element of our values and philosophy.
So, don’t ever avoid Philosophy, as it is the essence of one's own better Life! I mean satisfied Life!
