I... ME...MYSELF.....

God: Hello called me.

I, Me, Myself: Called u? No, who is this?

G: This is God. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat with u.

IMM: Sure, I pray. Just makes me feel good. Actually, am busy now. In the midst of something u know.

G: What r u busy with? Ants r busy too.

IMM: Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has Become hectic. Its rush hour all the time.

G: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets u results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.

IMM: But I still cant figure it out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat.

G: well I wanted to help u resolve your fight for time giving you Some clarity. I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.

IMM: Tell me why has life become so complicated?

G: Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated

IMM : why are we constantly unhappy ?

G: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because the act of worrying has become a habit. That's why you are so unhappy.

IMM: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?

G: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional

IMM:But then there is so much pain due to uncertainty.

G: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional

IMM: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?

G: Diamonds cannot be polished without friction. Gold without fire. Good people go through trials. With that experience their life becomes better not bitter.

IMM: YOU mean to say such experience is useful?

G: yes experience is a hard teacher though . she gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.

IMM: But still why should we go to through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?

G: Problems are purposeful road blocks offering beneficial lessons to enhance mental strength. Inner strength comes from struggle & endurance, not when you are free from problems.

IMM: Frankly in the midst of so many problems we don't know where we are heading.

G: if you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.

IMM: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction.

G: SUCCESS IS RELATIVE, quantified by others. Satisfaction is absolute, quantified by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead.

IMM: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here? I don't know the answers.

G: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it . life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.

IMM: how can I get the best out of life

G: face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

IMM: SOMETIMES MY PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED?

G: THERE ARE NO UNANSWERED PRAYERS . AT TIMES THE ANSWER IS no.

IMM: Thank you for this wonderful chat . I'll try to be less fearful.

G: Keep the faith & drop fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.
