Hidden roots

         It is said however tall the tree is or robust the branches are, the secret behind its majestic growth lies in its roots which are not always visible. There is a reason for Nature to be so because the foundation which is laying ground should be  underground.

 

        This is the  science how it works. In this world, whatever is noticeable is often mistaken as everything and honored for its credit.  What remains invisible, often goes ignored without recognition. One such example is our internal growth. 

        Whenever a person is working on inner strength building or immune system, the results are not immediately visible by outside world till a situation comes where inner wisdom plays its role and returns with good results by right decision and action thereupon. 

        A child may be trained & guided to pursue career in the best possible way but if he is not made to learn to introspect or contemplate upon his own thought process, his foundation may be shaky and can be uprooted at unknown crisis he could not handle. He can be in grave danger when such crisis strikes. 

        So failure helps us to be grounded and makes us internalize  where things might have gone wrong. This way we can take corrective action which will save in future. 

        Working on our core values and concepts gets revisited and thereby helps us to review whether we are on the path of progress or are we getting stuck in vicious circle of following the rest without having a pause button to introspect & see the entire scenario in a broader way. It does not make sense to keep running without knowing where you are heading to , if at all is it your destination willfully or we are just chasing some other's dream. We need to take a break and listen to our heart sometimes what is it that we are creating. Are we over working ourselves like a robot to run after success, money, fame, then certainly you will be missing out the simplicity of life to live. To rest and enjoy nature or simply being. You need not seek any validation or tag or approvals from the world to feel worthy. Your self worth is self found with inner fulfillment and bliss. Ask yourself what makes you happy. What keeps you at ease and have the courage to move in that direction.

        Most courageous people think differently and act like themselves without the care of pleasing others. Does not mean you have to be mean but certainly you will be your genuine self without getting fit into other's definition of being Perfect. Your  roots may be way deep inside and still your outer growth is not commendable to the world. At times of storm, all the tall trees will be vanquished except for those who are grounded to the deepest core of their roots.
