Today, it's feeling of both - the ecstacy about realisation of the Ultimate Journey, and the agony of leaving it all behind. Though I am more elated about the Journey part of it.

A programme on Discovery Atlas, brought forth, a profound fact of Life - How many of us actually prepare for that Journey? Virtually, none!!! They believe, that Death is the Ultimate Fact of Life and yet, no one wants to sneak through the other side of The Door. We believe, as we live - that Life will go on forever. How about making small beginnings to know what lies Beyond that closed Door? How about asking those very people about life beyond - who are already there?

it's lovely to see you evolve, uncover, shed the rusty facades we all have on to mask a turbulent cconfusion misling our try identities... try reading your blog from start to end... you'll know what i'm talking about :-)

There is a way out to relish "journey part of it" REAL LIVE on this planet. Just sneaking through the door will mean you have skipped all those beauties of journey behind anyways! Just because you are not prepared to take this journey wholesomely does not mean "virtually none" has not prepared for it. Let us try to cherish what we can RIGHT NOW instead of going beyond the closed door. How many dreams you have not lived till date which you wanted to live at some or the other point in life, try counting them, they will help you decide immediate assignments for rest of your life. How about making a beginning towards them and let heart feel light and delightful. You do not need to ask people beyond life, may be, you will end up finding "virtually none" there, instead you can look around and find many more than what you could ever imagine!

True Anonymous. Your points are valid . I agree with you. Though, I think you got me wrong, when you say that I need to look around here or am not living my life "here" to look "beyond the doors" for whatever I am seeking. This post only sought to highlight the romanticism that I feel with the world "beyond".
