Living a full life begins by living small dreams

- PP Wangchuk innervoice@hindustant­imes.com

Everyone wants to have a good life with all the good things of life available in abundance. And yes, that is the way to go. You seek the best and you stand a good chance of getting it. In other words, we must try to live and enjoy life fully instead of being content with mere existence. Life is full of great excitement and limitless potential to go beyond what we can see and think of.

Learning to live is as simple as forgetting to live. All that you have to do is to see how you can make the best use of all that you have.

Putting into action whatever ability you possess into the area of your passion with short- and long-term plans takes you closer to your goal. Each day makes a difference so you see your dream nearer and clearer.

Make sure we don’t live to regret at the end of our lives that we never really lived.

Every day you dream, some of those dreams are easily realised and the rest require time and hard work. Beginning life by giving shape to your easier-to-realise dreams first can go a long way in enabling you to fulfill the more difficult ones.

Lord Buddha said: “There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth… not going all the way, and not starting.”

So, the need to start what is possible and necessary is the beginning of a long and exciting journey.

Saint Francis of Italy had said that by doing what is possible, you are beginning to tackle what is impossible.

What happens is that the small achievemen­ts of your life ‘gang up’ to show you the ways to pluck the fruits from the ‘higher branches’.
