An artist at heart and an engineer at work

                    People use to forget that there is life beyond the narrow lanes of our closed mentality. The life is not inside a container called, brain, but outside the limits of our own expanded logic. The world has become far more interesting and there is every chance to improve yourself in the limitless sea of people. When we come out of our own narrow lanes of closed mentality, the experience of coming out in the vast expanse of varied world is like a dance of Shiva. Where there are no more confounded walls of your own logic closed inside a container called the brain. The imagination as large as sky, I remember the 4 lines of beautiful poem by Robert Frost.

"The woods are lovely dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep"

           Everyone has some bindings, that he has to abide by. The world needs to be free, but morally, ethically responsible. As depicted in the poem by Shree Rabindranath Tagore.

"Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake."
                      
             The society needs to feel the calmness of it's own mind. As one great writer has said "A calm mind can even overcome a storm" but for that you need to empty the cup full of opinions and speculation, see those opinions and speculations make your personality and impresses upon the world what you are! don't let the opinions, speculations, habits, take on you, be the master of your life. You need to master your life by attaining the eternal wisdom after you empty your cup.
