Let it be

Well every day we wake up and go to school college office or wherever our WORK requires. Work yes work, thats what we do most of our lives. But did it ever come to us or we ever thought that apart from earning our livelihood why do we go to work?
Well if that had been the case then none of those whose name apears in forbes list would have gone the next day.
Then why?
This year in the starting i thought of finding reason by taking the leaves and doing nothing. Yes nothing.
Will have to admit that initially it was a great feeling to wake up and and see the sun rise and see it setting too, just like a full life cycle. but later on it was the same again and again. Since i was not to do anything i did not touch books as well, but music is too tempting to resist and listening to music along with watching the birds and bangalore dogs play (read fight) was also another interesting activity but these things cfelt like an overdose within a day.
Then a question which may be our busy schedules dont let us think came to my mind. Who I am? where did i come from? Am i the result of some past and ongoing biological events and processes or beyond that or have degenerated to a mere manifestation of human reality.
When the word human reality came to my mind the next question was even tougher, everything that i see when i am awake is that real??What about those thoughts that people dream, what about the world that exists in their dreams, these two might be mutually disjoint sets or may with negligible intersection but then the questions were getting harder.
I always believe past and present are immaterial as compared to future so hte next thought was where do go from here??
I still haven’t got the answers of these questions which burn in my mind just like a splinter but with the passage of time i have found that
its better to be busy with work and “be normal” rather than delving in pursuits with no ends, after all it is the future that I am always interested in, but still will say
Let there be future ,let there be light and finally the beatles song “Let it be..”
