Life is a beautiful lie and death a painful truth

#newdaynewchapter is a Blog narrative started on March 1, 2021 co-founded by Kishore Shintre & Sonia Bedi, to write a new chapter everyday for making "Life" and not just making a "living"
What are those beautiful lies that life offers us? Your life will be very great when you follow the very old steps that is followed in our country even till now, “Finish your school with good grades, you will get good college. Finish your college with good grades, you will get a good job. Finish your work with good results in your job, you will get a good salary” These are very true but the schools and colleges teaches us to get “Grade, rank, marks, gold medals,etc,” but does it teach the true knowledge on how to survive this world or how to live a life happily. Does this rule ever teaches us to follow our passion or gives us a path to lead a happy content full life? - A Plain No.
Then what are the painful truths? We are going to move on when our mom and dad passes away and also our beloved friends and family. When people die in a big natural disaster, we move on. Even when we know still people are struggling for food, we live and we move on. Even when we know that people are being tortured like slaves like even girls and children are abused by house owners, we read and then move on. Even when you know that the world is dying, we move on to our usual life.
You don’t know why but the thing that flashes first on my mind is called as true love. Lies for the purpose of making excuses, lies for the reason of avoiding an argument, or even lies simply because the person wants to lie, become beautiful. How? Love did it. Love could even turn a beast into a prince, of course it could do the same to those lies. Trashy lies become pleasant to the ears by just a simple magic only love can do...have you heard plain lies like "“I will never leave you.” “I will love you forever.” “No other woman is better than you.” “I would still choose you among any other girls.” “No one could ever tear us apart.”
How fake these promises sound to me, but I should admit that one time in my life, these flattered me. These words, which I thought of being true, made me had a sound sleep. Lies only become lies if you find out that those are lies, and lies only become beautiful if love dominates. Painful truths? I should say that finding out that those beautiful lies are just lies is the most painful truth.
Follow your passion and find your purpose. Oh what a beautiful sugar coated lie. Or actually, the lie hides in the implication that this alone will bring you happiness. The search itself however, and overcoming related obstacles, are excellent teachers which make them not only beautiful but also valuable. Purpose and passion get discouraged in a society that mostly supports consumerism and conformist ideals.
And this is a painful truth if your passion happens to not fit in a current market and you don't have a talent for marketing or selling ideas. So with poor social intelligence, and without dedication and patience, passion will wear you down over time and frustration might replace it. If your passion fits, good for you! If it doesn't, good luck. But regardless of failing or succeeding, you could gain a lot of mental strength and insights while dealing with pain and chasing this beautiful lie.
Of course if a lie somehow saves someone life then it is beautiful lie. A person critically ill is informed wrongly in order to live the rest of his life in sporting spirits then it is beautiful lie. If a lie somehow saves someone life by preventing suicide of course it is a beautiful lie. Painful truth of life is death. Nobody can stop this.Painful truth of life is small time period of youth stage. However you try you will lose charm of your youth after sometime. Happiness is as normal in life as the sorrow is. We should keep patience in bad days and we should control our excitement in successful days. Be in state of contentment. Cheers!
