Some life lessons from Nature.

Nature is beautiful on the outside but very few of us know that a lot of deep work goes inside as well. We all enjoy seeing and observing natural beauty all around us. Who doesn't like to see the colourful sunset and beauty of rising sun. Be it birds or humming bees around flowers, the beauty and joy that it brings to the eyes of the observer just can't be described in words. But have we really seen Nature through the eyes of an artist, a painter or a writer.

Let's see what Nature is trying to tell and teach us today:

1) The Rising Orange Sun peeping from the clouds:

Like the sun rises from the clouds that hide it, we must as individuals rises above from whatever situation life throws upon us. The colors of the rising sun symbolises different shades of life i.e. happiness, sorrows, fear, anger, fun, laughter etc. Life is full of ups and downs. These colors symbolizes the good and bad situations of our life. But we must rise like a warrior and face it all.

2) The Bright Sun of the Afternoon:

Like the bright sun in the afternoon, we will shine in our workplace wherein our performance will be appreciated. We will be like that Shining sun whose heat can't be borne by many. Similarly when we will shine, competitors are going to be there and have haters who will not be able to see us successful. But as they say, to shine you must burn yourself first. Similarly success brings loneliness with it. So embrace that too gracefully.

3) The Setting Sun of the evening trying to hide behind the clouds.

Now that we have experienced success and failures both (life in general), we must return to our home. (be with family and friends i.e, loved ones in general). Life is nothing without them. What is achieved will also be taken. Its momentary. Its just to be enjoyed in the moment and be experienced. That's it. Nothing from it is going to stay be it laurels or medals of gold. Just memories are what you will cherish. Similarly the hiding sun also states, its better not to fight all the battles. Its the wise man's wisdom that it was not worth fighting every battle. Sometimes hiding in some of the battles especially relationships is a wise man's decision.

4) The Blooming Flower with butterflies on it:

A flower blossoms once the sun rises and bees starting collecting nectar from it. Its smell and fragrance (beauty in general) can only be experienced when we go near it. Similarly, we must show up to work with the onset of Sun, start our work and make a living. But you will be able to collect the nectar (results) only if observe, try to go within and introspect. Do the deep inner work. The beauty of life can be only be felt once we slow down and observe things, people and situations around us. The flower symbolizes us.

5) The returning of birds and bees upon sunset.

Like birds and bees, humans too, need to wind up after a hard working day. Return to their family and loved ones after a day full of hard work. Its important to value and appreciate the family time as well. That's what keeps us going through life.

6) The Night Sky full of Moon and Stars:

The Moon though remains the at the centre but has spots on it. These are scars one experiences in their life. While going through the journey of life, it has left their wounds on your soul. But you are able to see it only if you go near it, not otherwise. The stars are the people who represent your social circle that is also equivalently important, be it clients, relatives, extended friends who contribute to your social, emotional and financial well being. The dark night sky is dark aspects of life be it relationships, wounds and horror that one has experienced.

Without darkness, light is not appreciated.

Without sorrows, happiness is not appreciated.

Likewise all these aspects of nature, be it darkness of night or brightness of sunlight during day, both are equally important and valuable to maintain what is called the BALANCE of LIFE.

So Experience and Truly Enjoy Your Present.

Live in the NOW.
