Mind the Gap!

mind_the_gap-logoThis is not the gap on a road or the gap between platform and train for which generally this logo is used. This logo is generally used in London underground trains.

The gap which I am referring to here is the gap between “What I currently am” and “What I really want to be”.

Do you see a gap between these two? In myself I do see, a huge gap.

So what is that, that I really want to be? I see that I want to be happy continuously.

It is the continuous Happiness which I really want. I want Certainty, Consistency and Continuity of Happiness. There is never a time when I desire for unhappiness. When I am unhappy I want to come out of that state and when I am happy I want to continue to be in that state, so it implies that it is Happiness which I really want!

This is something which is independent of perceptions. This is something which is inherent in each individual. All the actions of a human being are happening just for the sake of ensuring Happiness and its continuity, without any exception. We do a lot of things, like studying for exams, passing IITs, doing Phds, doing Jobs, earning recognitions, positions, money, marriage, kid etc, expecting unconditional acceptance from others around, liking-disliking people around and a lot more things, but the question still remains, is that all able to give me what I really want? Mind you, I do not discourage doing all above or I do not say that above all is wrong, but the only thing which makes me to think is, is this sufficient for what I really want?

And the next question is, what I currently am? Am I what I really want to be?

If I compare my current state with what I really want to be, then I see that I am not what I really want to be!

Are you?

If I am not then what is the program of action I am going to follow in order to be what I really want to be?
