Well, it was just by chance that the Sadguru twenty-one day challenge flashed on my mobile, and I decided to take it up. No, not on an impossible impulse (that would ba wasteful wager!), but because it is worth taking up. Why, anyways, I am in to yoga and meditation. A habit, moreover, is always formed when followed for twenty-one days.
Anyways, challenges are fun. Why? Well, they test the real you, the inner soul that one is. Challenges show you how tough you can be even when otherwise mostly you have always been quite a senti(-n-)mental fool.
Oh, yes, it is equally enriching to stand up to the whole world, your own timid, shy, introverted self included. Challenges introduce you to the tremendous reserves of strength you had embedded within you. Like the fiery rebellion against all sorts of cheapness-es, just blubbering around!
Challenges create a fortress that save you from all the ugly compromises. Nor do they allow you to be harsh, hard-hearted neither mean. Well, anyways, your dreams have always been so clean. Hence that is also a challenge to fulfill them, come what may! Long live challenges of all sorts!
Just a passing thought before this passionate praise of challenges ends. In the new, politically correct lingo, none is deficient. Everyone is 'challenged'. None is blind or deaf or mute, for instance. Why, none is a dumbo either, is just a wee little bit "intellectually challenged," for sure!
Pratima@"In life," writes Roger Crawford, "being challenged is inevitable. Being defeated is optional."
