Life is a Beautiful Struggle.

Life is a Beautiful Struggle.

"YOU HAVE COME FROM GOD, YOU ARE A SPARK OF HIS GLORY.
YOU WILL GET PEACE ONLY WHEN YOU AGAIN MERGE IN HIM."

Life is the sum of experiences that we encounter as we live through our life. Day to day struggles and triumphs are experienced by all. As human beings, when we encounter any challenge, we have the freedom to choose to how to react, as every decision that we make takes us on a different road. Every decision that we make has a significance and even the tiniest choice that we make reverberates throughout the entire universe. All life demands is struggle, struggle and struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. So we should never lose an opportunity given by God to make the best use of Life.

Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, the courage with which you have fought the struggle against overwhelming odds. Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals. Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our betterment for no man can ride unless your back is bent.

Some of us need to discover that we will not be comfortable until we have the courage to do and experience more less than usual... There are times, then, when in order to keep ourselves in existence, we simply have to sit back for a while and do nothing. And for a man who has let himself be drawn completely out of himself by his activity, nothing is more difficult than to sit still and rest, doing nothing at all. The very act of resting is the hardest and most courageous act he can perform at that time.

What actually we're all seeking is the meaning and purpose for life. What we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences, on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our own innermost being towards the reality so that we actually feel the ecstasy of flourishing.

One who lives life with passion is like a bright burning fire and as a small, dim fire can easily be extinguished by gusts of wind, but a large, bright one will grow bigger as the wind grows stronger. In the same way, the more obstacles a passionate person encounters, the brighter and stronger that person grows.

Our duty is to encourage everyone in his struggle to live up to his own ideas, and strive at the same time to make the ideal closer to the Truth. The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle is perhaps to win it without honour. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved. In these confused times, the role of classical music is very essential to reassert cultural and ethical values that have always characterized our country and for which we have traditionally been honored and respected outside our shores.
