The last mile

Our journey in life runs into thousands of miles. One mile for one day as the last mile comes along , it maybe too soon or too much delay.  The last mile seems coming along too fast or too slow, it becomes very precious.  It goes by the saying " too little is so much"..

If we have been flying through the miles in our life, we could not seem much of it.  Too fast to see the details but covering a long distance or traveling slow and seeing more detials in a shorter distance. This is a choice or sometimes , it is the lack of awareness to choose which is better.

By taking short stops or break, we can awake the consciousness or awareness in us and we can make better judgement and live a meaningful life. It is not matter of the miles but the steps which keep us in the present and our awareness.

Why do we keep running ? Everything is so blur and everything we eat is so tasteless. At the end of the miles, we live longer but no wiser.  All is blur and have no meaning.  No good memories which is often what is left for us to cling to.

Hopefully, it is not by the dying bed that we got to know this wisdom or coming to be aware of the last mile. What can we do by then but to live or die with regrets. Everything has to end.

The whole outside world is just an illusion but what we have in us or feel in us is real. When we try to look at things in different angles, it has a different image and it looks different . This is the real perception in the outside world. Ever changing and in illusion. The feel of an object is different each time we touch it.

What is there if we are gone ?  Nothing but the illusions continue with or without us.

Namaste.
