The Bucket List

There are films that entertain you, there are films that absorbs you, there are films that inspires you. The Bucket List a film that teaches you, from experience of life.

When you are 60, you have seen most of the spectrum that encompasses life. And when two old men, in their sixties, are lying on their death bed and make a wish list they want to do before they die, the journey they take would be the most special journey of their lives. Jack Nicholson/ Edward Cole, is a billionaire admitted into his own hospital for cancer. According to his own policies in his hospital, he has to share the room with Morgan Freeman/ Carter. Carter is a family man, wedded to a wife throughout his life with children and grandchildren. Cole, has married four times, has a child but are not in talking terms with her. The journey redifens the meaning of richness. One of the most beautiful moments that unravel in the film is when Cole kisses the most beautiful girl in the world. 

The film is a must watch. The theatres are empty, and it may fly out of it too soon... The story touches you from the heart and tries to tell you some little things about growing old, before you reach there, and to learn the meaning of being rich, being alive and living a momentous life.

What happens when life turns a full circle? When you think that everything is lost, your hard work, your dedication is taken for granted? When some one makes the best out of you and gives you a raw deal? Every time i tried to help somebody, i have been ridiculed in the end. People forget of what was before than what is today. They leave you high and dry, throwing you like a used tissue. But then, what happens?

I kept thinking of it for a long time. I had sleepless nights and drowsy days. when i thought life was never going anywhere. Whenever i took a step towards something, some thing else would pull me back. I could not move further or away from it. But then one day, out of the blue, something happens and when you look back at life, you realize, every single thing that had happened in the past was meant to happen. You are not left high and dry. Someone, in fact, was watching. I hope he is. If things go well in the next few days, i would know for sure, that we have angels around us. Even if it does not, there is someone taking care of us.. all we have to do is believe that some day every thing will come back...

I have learnt…

...that life is little, but we make it seem like a lot because of our ignorance.
...that it is not about being secure, but not feeling insecure, that is important.
...that we cannot seek happiness, but only choose to be happy.
...that love is an illusion that lasts forever.
...that sorrow is the result of our own inaction.
...that we mistake to find happiness in relationships, while it is spread all around us in different forms.
...that we die, but our thought doesn’t.
...that we own only that much land where we stand on.

...That we need to love life, and happiness will follow

Permanence
