Simply beautiful!

Pre-requisite :  Watch Kung Fu panda!

"I am not a big fat panda. I am THE big fat panda." I had goosebumps the first time I heard this. This made me think, the major source of inspiration is always provided by something or someone you least expected it from!

I've always been a fan of animated movies. There's something about them which is so surreal but still one feels connected to them. People term them "fairy tales" and laugh them off their head "it's just a movie.. its never gonna happen in real life". Again, its just the way you look at life. Would you rather say "Oh.. I just have one slice of pizza left <sigh>" or would you say <burp>"Just done with 3 slices of deliciously yummy pizza! Should be able to fit in one more <eye the leftover slice greedily >"

 Life is just like that pizza. Yummy, slurpy and God damn delicious. Would you rather crib about the one left over slice or enjoy the 3 slices and make way for the 4th??  In life you may not get what you want, you may not get what you think you deserve but you get what you require to live. If you think otherwise, then you've been cribbing about the one last slice of pizza!!! In the end, its not about what you have or how much you have. It's about how well have you utilized what you've, which brings me back to the main topic for today!

Simple characters leading simple lives and doing something extraordinary with it - pretty much sums all my favorite animations. It's always the simple things in life, that get better of human beings <adult kinds>. An adult brain is almost always cornucopia of thoughts. But as Master Oogway would say "Your mind is like this water my friend, when it get's agitated it becomes difficult to see. But if you allow it to settle the answer becomes clear". Stressed about your life, your work or just in plain despair and wanna run away? Master Oogway would also say "One often finds his destiny on the path he takes to avoid it "

Most of the times, finding the solution to a problem is an extended task. The solution may be simple as hell but its that simplicity that takes time to be discovered! Embrace life for what it is, rather than what you think you can make out of it. Lower your defenses and breathe through every pore. Un-complicate your life and say hello to simplicity!

 P.S : This post has been a draft since I saw Kung Fu panda! Today's the day I give it, it's due!
