Just about nothing!
The most important truth is :
We hardly know what we really want.
Not only we don't know, we're even unaware that we never know.
We seek help from those who themselves are as much confused like us ourselves.
Maybe, in comparison to us ourselves, they have something to show off and boast about, of their achievements, success and status. But are they free of conflict, apprehension about the future?
Aren't they too, like us are vulnerable to the whims of uncertainty, of fate?
We fail to see that those people are far more in trouble as we are ourselves in.
They may have name, fame, wealth, luxuries of life we couldn't even imagine in our wildest dreams, what to speak of enjoying them.
Everything has a price. They buy their status by paying through nose. And they are hardly aware of what they are paying to avail such luxuries!
Most of them you see in the News and in the headlines everyday.
You can't remember them all the time, even if you wish to do so!!
During the last 5 years I lost so many a people who I thought were very happy, successful, rich and reputed too in the society, if not in the world.
Still all of them were inwardly insecure, quite unsure and skeptic about what the future might have in store for them.
The thing that is called the world,
Is a indeed a plaything of magic,
Looks trite, the moment it's achieved,
Looks gold, the moment it's lost!

दुनिया जिसे कहते हैं
जादू का खिलौना है!
मिल जाए तो मिट्टी है,
खो जाए तो सोना है!!

Duniya jise kehate hain,
Jaadoo ka khilauna hai,
mil jaaye to mittee hai,
kho jaaye to sonaa hai!
