For so many things, we hear, now you are growing up, learn this. Now you are growing up, be patient. Now, you are a grown-up, speak truth. You are a grown up, be loving and gentle with others. So many things and then I realized few things.
Learning is a part of life. Learning continues till we are alive. What we do here is learn and learn. We may learn from books, we may learn from others, we may learn with experience or we may learn from any source around like friends, office, media etc. But it keeps happening.
Now, with so much information available, we need to learn what to learn and what not to learn. Something which helps us growing and becoming a better human being, we need to learn from that. Something which is not making us a better human being, we need to avoid that.
Money? If we set our goals right, we work for them and we are genuine and honest we all learn and grow. Some phases will come, but eventually we will be fine.
So from all that, I realized that being more loving to self and others, having a peaceful mind, its like working for peace rather than conflicts, ignoring the things which can disturb mental peace and becoming more and more genuine with time is a part of growing up. If we are unable to adapt few things with time, learn them and accept them, we would never actually grow up. We might become old biologically, but we would never grow-up. Then we would be like a teenager trapped in an old body. Because it means that with so many things available around life has failed to train us on it’s main purpose. Yes, the main purpose is to discover self with love and becoming love. More we discover love, more we are closer to who we are. The self realization is the realization of love.
Becoming more and more genuine is a part of Karmic learning where we realize, more we are genuine, more this world is genuine to us. Somewhere we only help ourselves when we are more and more genuine.
And nothing is worth disturbing our mental peace. We can do anything, we can achieve anything if we are peaceful. We can only be happy, if we are peaceful. We can only create a better world if we are peaceful. A peaceful mind will create peace around. A conflicted mind will create conflict around. We need to learn to maintain and attain peace.
So be more loving, be more peaceful and be genuine always.
