Yes I am married, married to my Work!

Yes I am married, married to my Work!

Life is made up of many things like a building- Bricks, Rods, Woods etc but when you look at a finished one you probably say - This is a building and it is made of Stone. Such is Work, it is the stone of the building we call life.

A Work defines your life. Becomes your face until you become a face to your work. A work is like sleeping in a way that sleeping takes away your time without you even knowing it, so is work that makes life short but purposeful.

Many a times, we start working to live and not living to work. Thats the black and white difference between failures and successes.

When you work to survive, you are married to a family whose belly and your own fall over your shoulders, you keep increasing your own standards of living and keep working to match upto them until a point comes, when you realize your entire lifestyle was nothing but a drug - the more you have is the more you need!

When you live to work, you are married to your work. Such people have families and great ones and they never lack any resources. They earn 3, spend 1 back at work, take 1 back at home and saves 1. And the one they take back home is always greater than what the earlier one took.

To create your own story, you have to work and work because you love it! So a marriage is a must... however

It can be an Arranged marriage- You jumped in to work not knowing the ABCDs but started to fall in love soon and then death parted you two.

or a Love Marriage - Where you chose the work and thought it is apt and convinced yourself and everybody and stretched ends to marry and then, made loads and loads and loads of true love.

When you get married...

  • Its something there in your mind, mostly at front and sometimes at back of it.

  • Its something you care about and work hard to make happen and keep afloat.

  • Go through the 7 promises two make when they marry as stated in hindu texts. ( HINT!!!)

And remember, when you marry, you do it for life and from that day avoid all the distractions, including other kinds of work. I had a principal once who used to talk about taking school to great heights by his own principles and approach, he turned out to be a hoax when he left his job within few years for another high paying job! He betrayed his marriage. The other may work or may not but the one who can break it once, may break it again as quitting is a habit.

Pleasure pain are part of game, the marriage. Keep your cool and keep turning up with creative and bolder actions, for this marriage when it goes successful, it takes you to another high level of elites, where legends exist!

 I feel devastated. I feel lost and I don't have energy for anything.  The reason is mostly my job. If I think harder, the reason is not...
