Your Thoughts on......

I happen to read a blog of my friend Jyostna.K , the title is Ultimate advice. I had read it long ago, but it made me to think a lot. You will get to know the complete title of this article when you read on..

What is it that it talks about, that made to think a lot for a long time? It talks about what do you want out of your life. What is your goal? And how do you define these. You might be thinking what big deal is there in this. You may think that, the goals will be to earn money, Bungalow, Position, Grades etc..You may keep worrying about these things all the time and may forget to live the life to the fullest.But, does these things really matter when you are on a DEATH BED? Yes, it talks about the thoughts when you are on Deathbed. Position, Money, Grades..etc will bring satisfaction to a certain extent. But, will that really matter on deathbed?.

Now, think about the thoughts that you would like to have on deathbed and work towards those thoughts. Though, I have no experience being on death bed, but, I have seen people who were on death bed. I am not a mind reader, but, I could make out what thoughts were (may) be going through their mind. Its my experience that, when you are on a death bed, you would like to have near and dear ones near you and give some advice. It doesn't matter what grades did you score, what scoldings you got, how much you earned etc..what matters is how much you lived your life and how much you gave to others.

On the way to deciding these thoughts, you may think that ..I'd like to experience everything in life. But, when you want to experience everything, take care that your near and dear ones does'nt get affected by this. You may think that you can do anything with your life, but at the same time remember that these people have sacrificed something for your life and its your responsibility to live up to their expectation. Else, you will regret this on your deathbed.

And, when you decide on your thoughts that you would like to experience on deathbed, It should comprise of your family, of yourself (personal), your professional life and Social life. Lets see what these mean.

Family : Think what would be your thoughts towards your family, your parents, your relatives, your spouse, your children etc .

Personal : Think what would be your thoughts for yourself, how much have you lived life for yourself.

Professional: Thoughts about professional life include, did you become what you want to be?

Social : What have you given to the people around you ? It may be charity, it may be some help to others (may not be monetary) in some form without expecting anything in return.

These form the important dimensions of thoughts on your deathbed. There could be others also. If you think about these, you will start realizing your goals and start working towards them.

So, what's "Your Thoughts On Death Bed"?

I would go with Ravi, it is far too tempting to think philosophically about what would happen if one was on deathbead. And far too many people get depressed by thinking about all these things.

Think good and do good, and have fun in whatever you are doing seems to be much more better way to live life.

Hmm....Point taken about living in present. I did'nt say we should'nt think about present. If thinking about deathbed is stupidity, then thinking about getting a job, thinking about becoming a Manager, Technical personnel...etc is also stupidity. Everything in this world happens twice. Once in the head and once in reality. For ex : the projects that you do, is done twice..once it should strike your head, then only you can implement it. You need not waste your time to think about what you will do in the long run...but you should know what you want to do.

Nice post.. Thanks for citing me.. :D..

@Ravi and @Imanpreet
You ppl are right.. We got to live in the present.. Well thats why I said we got to live life every sec and make most of it (in my blog)..

Thinking about Death Bed is probably depressing.. for eg i dont find it depressing at all.. It only makes me think i get a chance to find out what exactly happens after death.. :))

So I guess depends on one's perspective and how u look at things.. and this philosophical discussion can go on forever..
