What is most desirable?

Concentration and silence. Silence around and in the mind. The mind which is free from thoughts and worries. Worries that bring you down, literally and make you forget that you are a fighter. Fighting for love and peace. Peace which is rare and rarely got when a squabbling family member is around.

What is most desirable?
Is it happiness?
is it peace?
Is it love?
Is it self sufficiency?
Is it stability of body, mind and soul?
Is it a perfectly healthy state?
Is it fulfillment of desires?

The list can be increased but I limited it to a few basic ones that almost all human beings desire. You must have observed that I connected most things I wrote but that is because those are literally connected anyways. We cannot isolate love and just define it as what is usually shown in the movies. Love is beyond all that and more. True love is accompanied by sacrifice and unselfishness. The moment, a drop of selfishness enters the mind, love is not true anymore.

The most desirable things in life are health, love, peace, happiness, self satisfaction. If there is no satisfaction, desires keep popping up and the mind is soon burdened and it will start affecting the body as well which leads to tiredness and lethargy.

Have you noticed people who plan a lot but achieve nothing much, effectively? The plans are worked out in the mind but in the end, not much is done at a physical level because the individual is too overcome by the hurdles and worries put forth by over thinking a project. I do not mean a person should act without thinking. There are those who do it and end up regretting it. However, it does not hurt much to take a small risk.

Successful people are those who do take calculated risks and then enjoy their wins.

A gift which is often underrated is peaceful surroundings. For example, I write online and use my PC for it. I need silent surroundings and peace so that I can think clearly. This is absent when extended family is around. I do love to have guests and family members coming over but I never mix the two otherwise it will never end up good, especially if one or two of them starts to exchange words with each other.

What do you most desire now, in your life? It could be different from what you desire for, ten years from now. Just a thought..
