Man by nature is an achiever. He likes to venture into new territories, find out unexplored grounds & be the best in his domain. There is nothing wrong in scaling great heights. But the problem occurs when, in search of new heights, he forgets that valleys are more beautiful than mountains. Understanding is a much bigger gift than acquiring wealthy possessions. One might go on to become the CEO of a large company but it will mean nothing to one's six year old child who fails to get attention of his father. The depth of life is not only a great place to be at, it is also more soothing than the exhilaration of feeling unbeatable. Dive deep to be at the top. Otherwise, as the saying goes, it will be very lonely up there. Happy diving !
....well said sir! ....we know that life is not about making money or gaining power and reputation ,this all has become the necessity to keep ourselves 'living' but what u say is worthy to enjoy the beauty & pleasures of life.
