A complete life comprises several incomplete lives

Well it's just a thought, which came to my mind during the lazy weekend. I was just thinking that all of us are blessed with just one life but we all live many incomplete lives in that one life.

For instance, lets say Abhi, Abhi is a cute kid and always wanted to have his own rock band, he always dreamt of becoming a rock star in his life but somewhere in his life he realized the struggle involved and the importance of basic necessities to survive and he started studying medicine to be a doctor, since he realized that making money is more important in life then making your dreams come true. Now Abhi is a successful doctor and he has a successful life but somewhere in the middle he had an incomplete life, the one of an incomplete rock star.

Then there is Reena, she wanted to be a fashion stylist always and she finished her studies in the same. But somehow when she was working in a fashion house things were a little different, the work culture and the people were not as simple as she was…she couldn't take the challenge anymore and quit now she handles merchandising in a reputed textile manufacturing firm. She thinks it's a safe and secure job for her. She is content with her present job and life. But she too had an incomplete life that of a fashion stylist.

Then there is Pari; she always wanted to go abroad for her higher studies. Things dindt work out so she tried for something else and finally finished her masters. She is a successful student now but there in an incomplete dream, the incomplete life of a student, studying abroad. Then during her masters she wanted to join the glamour world of advertising-she thought the creativity and the ideas are magical but after she worked there for few days…. she realized the hard facts and she switched to another job which has better opportunity, better package and more respect. She is successful here but then there is an incomplete life that of an ad person. Remember she has a successful life or she is very hopeful, still hopeful. Seems she is in a habit of building hope against hopes.

Now look at Shruthi, she was an extremely bright kid throughout her academics and a very loving daughter but the trust was always low from the parents side which started the making of a rebel inside her and she started doing all those things which she knew her parents wont appreciate but then she had no other choice. She is happy with her life and so are her parents but there is an incomplete life, the one that lost honesty and trust. Now everything is on face, only on the face. Eventually there is one more story; she fell in love with Sarath who was also in love with her but then he ditched her in between as he wasn't able to convince his parents, Shruthi tried by all means but she lost the love. She was grief stricken but life gave her one more chance to build her career. Suddenly her parents agreed and gave her a new chance. She moved to another city and is now a very successful modern lass. But the success got so much on her head that now it seems she don't want to remind her of what and where she is from? She left an incomplete life behind her. But that's ok because she thinks this is the real life. She can ignore the scattered dreams.

Well then there is Sarathi, he had a pleasant life with, of course there are always some difficulties and struggle. But we can say that his life had come a full circle with a fun-filled youth, a settled business and a lovely family. Things were pretty much fine as they were together even to solve the complicacies of life. But then he met with an accident, a real bad one and though he lost the physical strength and the capability to work as he used to the major thing he lost his hope. He is not quite hopeful and keeps on gaining and loosing the same. This has shortened his vision and he doesn't hope to be exactly fine as he was and thus has stopped dreaming. He always had a dream to grow from a small entrepreneur to an industrialist. He tries to forget those now days and laughs that away if his children try and remind him about his long-cherished dream. Now what is left is the life of an an incomplete industrialist behind him.

Not all these but there are many like above, the ones who always loved someone and never confessed in the fear of rejection. Then those who were loved like anything but they always had a dynamic career. They are all very successful in life but each one of them have one or may be more incomplete lives…. the one which they left aside, ignored after a while and then those which they still try to forget because deep inside all of them are still alive. They all have great life, the successful, the complete and the quality life but that's made of so many incomplete forgotten lives.

Mesmerizing Blog ... Great Job!!! I do agree that many of our lives are incomplete.However life is living in the moment.. i mean desires do not have their importance if they turn true for everyone. Things doesnt go well all d time,however the right spirit lies in d one who enjoys everything they do...
