If there would have not been any restrictions, life would have been an exaggerated version of freedom. Imagining a life where there is no one to guide you through or any limitation on anything you do just makes life appear so meaningless and tasteless. We often see people crib over something they wanted to do but couldn’t because they see ahead of them obstacles or restrictions. These limitations put their will power to attest and gauge the determination of the person to attain the objective.
These restrictions which when imposed lend thrill and excitement and offer a challenge to people that brings out the needy side of their nature and helps them judge the same. Hence life is full of obstacles for which we should be thankful to the divine maker of mankind because it is these restrictions that enhance a person’s endurance and always teaches a lesson.
During childhood, children want to have the exact toy that their friend has bought. It’s the very first sight of the new exotic thing that lures them into having it. They end up demanding it from their parents and when not heeded by their folks results in a few days of crying and even more in sadness. But then as days pass by, they learn to overcome the fact that they were unable to have the toy which they wanted so badly. That’s the brighter side; it teaches you to accept the feeling of deprivation and heals the void suffered.
Similarly, in your teenage, you are not permitted for a party or celebration of which you want to desperately be a part of. So the entire cycle is repeated but doing less damage and faster recovery. Consequently, our life gets accustomed to this process of desire, failure, acceptance, recovery and so forth. This reminds of the first walk we have which is immediately followed by our very first fall. That tender age begins the process which continues till your final last breath. Throughout the journey of life we keep experiencing such incidents which define who we really are.
Thus, we need to endure failure and accept it. That’s the keyword to happy state of being. It’s the answer to most of our mind puzzling questions.
