A Bird...

A few minutes before, it was raining heavily. I was standing in the balcony and enjoying the rain.
Well there is some beauty in rain to enjoy!!

After sometimes, when it all came to an end, I saw a small bird sitting in a tree branch.
What is so peculiar about it??!

Well, yeah... there is nothing much peculiar about such a day to day, common thing, unless we give some thought over it.

My thoughts ran like these..

The bird simply sitting in the branch. It does not appear to have some great goal in life, no purpose of life, not craving for attention .... It simply seeks to have a small, modest nest. It just need the sufficient amount of food for that day only. I do not know, weather it is jealous of other birds, animals or something else...
It leads a modest, simple life without seeking for a position, without seeking for power, without searching for recognition and admiration...

But what about man??!
He is always in search of more. And For him more is less.

When we understand the so called real truth of life.. competition, conflicts everything is a real wastage of energy.. But can we live a life like a bird?? I think no. Because the society has conditioned our mind in certain way so that 'life of a bird' has became a purposeless one as far as we are concerned.

I am confused... what to follow..where it will lead...
So I devised a simple solution. Go with the Flow.. How pathetic !!!!!

hmmm..may be from humans perspective birds dont hv any goals , but for them saving themselves from being preyed , searching for food and safeguarding from the changing weather itself is challenges ..since we humans dont fear from these , to us it seems little .

Its just my perspective :)
