Comparison is the thief of joy

We came with nothing. We will go with nothing. But right now we are all in profit!
The people we compare ourselves with – some of them have more than us and some have less. So what!

When we compare ourselves with others remember we never see the complete picture. We see only a part of their lives and often we say “They’re doing better than us!”

The truth is everyone has their own struggles. And nobody advertises their struggles.
Comparison is a meaningless exercize. We are not better off than others and others are not better off than us. It is all Maya. What we see as reality is just an illusion of reality.

We are where we are and we are here as a result of the choices we made.
We can make different choices in the future and we will be somewhere else.

In the end all that matters is how well we lived, how alive we choose to be till our last breath.

In a 100 years we will all be gone and barely anybody will remember us or miss us. Somebody else will live in the houses we live in today. Somebody else will own the things we own today.

We give so much significance to the journey of others and we give so much significance to life itself. We take life so seriously, as if there are medals for first place in heaven!

Today, commit to be fully present and be at peace with where you are. The present is all we really have. Let’s live our best life till bedtime. Tomorrow will take care of itself.
