The reality of life

Well this is my first writing..this article is based on the reality of life.after seeing the youth being mislead i thought it was important to refresh their soul and guide them towards a content life

                           The Reality of Life

As a child is born he is innocent and angelic. He repeats what you say and follows what you do. His sweet little acts are a source of joy for the whole family. This is undoubtedly the most cheerful stage of life. As he grows up he learns a lot of things, while most of them are productive others aren’t. He is shown a lot of paths in front of him and has to decide which one to follow. He follows one, then another and quickly realizes that his life is not going in the right direction. This is not what he always wanted to do. He gets depressed and hopeless. He spends most of his life in this misery. Things get very tough for him. He doesn’t know where to go, who to look up to. It is only when he gets old that he realizes the true meaning of life. Perhaps it was the innocence, the purity that was missing throughout his adulthood. He indulged into things which were materialistic, virtual and unrighteous. This is the reason why one goes back into his childhood as he gets old. But by that time it is too late. If only he could go back in time and undo his wrong deeds. Thus it is necessary that we start giving importance to the basic principles of life and stay away from the worldly desires so that we won’t have to contrite for our deeds when we get old and feeble.

Hi Talal, I think you are a natural, you write brilliantly and I could not detect any grammatical errors. Keep writing, this is a solid effort, I thoroughly engaged with your perceptions of this young boy's development and your philosophical stance was mature and enhanced the piece greatly, Well done.

I notice something about your writing on this right away. If I hadn't read your About You profile I still would of noticed but might not of put my finger on it.
You seemed to have wrote this in Medical terms, The same as any Dr.
Status, symptoms , probable cause, remedy

[Talal Hussain]

yes perhaps that's true but i wrote what i felt :-)

[Cryingkate]

So Sorry, I didn't mean that in any negative way. I was just trying to put my finger on something that sounded different. I guess the straight to fact and matter approach is so different from my rambles and that is something that I am lacking when doing my business letters and emails.
It is something that I desire in myself so perhaps that's why it stuck out so much for me to mention.
I would love to of elaborated more but I am on duty right now.
and it's too much for me to give a response on every concept.
But may I say, that I do love the way you desire to seek out the answers and that you even question things.I love that hungry for wisdom for the Soul -Self Great Job !

[Cryingkate]

For Pets sake I'm making lots of typos tonight. I meant hunger... LOL
Very Good and it must be so. look how many responses you got. I mean did you get an award? :-) It must be great

[Talal Hussain]

i really appreciate your comments..i am not a traditional writer so i just followed my instincts and wrote what i felt..i agree with you that my writing style is pretty straightforward but i didn't want to ruin the concept with unnecessary manipulation of words :-) I am thankful to you and everyone else who viewed and reviewed my writing...

[Cryingkate]

Just Keep doing what you are doing. It is the only way to be all who you are. No need to try and do anything like anyone else.Your work is shining thru like a beacon light.I was up and watched when your posting came in and watched one after another come to read it and review. It was amazing. it was the first time I seen anything like it. So I sat back and didn't answer it yet till now.I knew you were very busy replying :-)

this is the brilliant writing containing a pure and meaningful message for all of us.it's true that those DAYS OF innocence are so sweet and priceless that its spread joy on our face.that's why we call children as "angels"....but sometimes we fail to realise that it's that stage where a child learns the game of life.....to tell them what's right and what's wrong.....and it's the fault of those people who have taught them to walk on the wrong path...
and it's pitiful that they have to bear the price for their fault.....
i liked how you have penned the beautiful message in your writing ...
(it reminded me of Shakespeare's verese of As you like it:the very last stanza)...

summing up:it's ravishing and great!!
Hats off to you!!!

[Talal Hussain]

thank you so much...glad you got the concept of the writing :-)

[The dark story]

you're always welcome.and thanks a tonne for sharing this sweet writing with us:)

[Epipsychologist]

Why should people have to feel bad for being human. It's not "unnatural" to follow your desires, and to discover pleasure by imitating people who dared to live for themselves. People only become contrite when they're old if they are too weak to defend the decisions that made life beautiful and sad.

[Talal Hussain]

good to see your thoughts...but i wont say i agree completely with you...

[Eve]

If one did not take some wrong turns in life they would not spiritually and emotionally grow or mature, we would never question and then what would be the point of having free will or the choice to make wrong turns, realize them, turn back and start again learn, move on and then rejoice in our ascension no matter how minute the elation, before we mess up again and do it all over again. to err is human..yada yada

[Talal Hussain]

thanks for your thoughts...appreciate that :-)

[cevance]

Very well done.

[Talal Hussain]

thank you :-)

[Hamza]

this is wonderful stuff..
being materialistic has become a trend, rather it has become a habit amongst the people .. we have forgotten the reason of our life and have led it astray into worldly pleasures...
this write should be put up everywhere for the world to get enlightened ... very thought provoking and excellently managed ...
i would say thank you for writing this ...

[Talal Hussain]

thank you so much :-)i m glad you could relate to it....

[Brianna Brie]

If only we had the foresight, life would be much more enjoyable. Thanks for sharing your golden nuggets of wisdom.

[Talal Hussain]

thank you so much :-)

Very true my friend. the only correction (besides the ton of others) the one that I saw was the sentence where you say 'he indulged into things' I would in things sound better. Impressive Work.
