LIFE………..seems very simple and short but is it equally simple to understand? possibly NOT‼‼! Life is not a simple thing,it’s something like being in the mid of the river and alligators are following you and all you have the option is just to keep on swimming faster than those alligators. Though it is possible to swim across the river to find the land but if you stop, you are over. Similarly,is the life,keep on running and make your way to your destination. If you quit, you will be quit forever. We all always been told by our elders that life is a struggle,either compete or your life is worth nothing. But,
Is it necessary to deal with life so harshly?
Is it necessary to compare life with struggle?
And, is it necessary to feel life like a competition?
There may be many answers from different people and also few will be correct and very logical. But I feel it in other way. We got to have the feeling of competition to establish ourselves and to survive in this world but this feeling should not overtake us and our thoughts. We must know the meaning of struggle and the sense to achieve what we deserve but this should not hamper our development if we fails to do so. Sometimes, the desire of getting success is so much keen that one can not accept his failure. But from where this sense of failure and success come to a child’s mind and it capture the mind of a child so much that there is a mental breakdown of the child. Why our elders are so much possessive and over desirous our their kid that want to led their lives through their young aged children?
I know this article is little bit controversial but its true and even I accept this that I write what I feel is true and I don’t like to match my words with others unless I feel its true and practical. Respecting the feelings of all the readers and elders, I am apologizing to them in advance. But even it’s a fact and almost every children is going through this situation. I,being a student depicts this issue to write in my blog because I feels the need of changing the mentality of the over auspicious parents. Though I can not deny the fact that hard work and dedication makes the man perfect and capable enough to survive in this world but is it necessary to feed into the children at the age that all does not matter much.
Actually, this was the life of a student but its not only confined to that age. Student’s life is just a stage of seven stages of life but there is many others stages which keeps equal importance in one’s life. And then as a whole we define a LIFE. However, life is not only confined to the responsibilities, work and different formal activities throughout the life but it is also confined of many informal activities and all the different kind of fun and leisure. There are different stages of a human being in one’s life and gradually with the passing of time and growing age one can clearly notice oneself to be changed with the changing time. One can clearly notice himself how he got himself engaged in the daily busy schedule of studies and responsibilities and how he is getting trapped in the vicious circle of life. One has to face various failure and obstructions in his life but the most interesting part is to overcome and surpasses those obstacles and failure and to become a winner to live that moment of life is the happiest and most encouraging moment of life and only those can feel about this triumph who knows the feeling of winning after several failures…..
And most precisely, winning after several failure is life, rather not attempting due to fear of loss.

I agree to most of your post about Life and more specifically to the last line. It, in all the ways, signifies the importance of struggle and competition in our life. But, yes, the present situation of all the parents wanting their children to come 1st in the race has led to chaos where the healthy competitions have somewhat got extinct.
For your reference to 'student' being only one stage of life, I somewhat differ. I dont believe much in Shakespaere's seven ages of life. For me, the ages are not so discrete and its not a step-wise process to move from one stage to another. For me, at a particular time, a man lives more than one age of life simultaneously and for 'student', I think the process is unending. The day one stops being student, he stops being human!!!
thank you anshu for your concern in this post and even I really feel that life cannot be discreted in different stages but I take the help of this instances just to differentiate 'student' from the other aged people. And i agree with your approach and thoughts.
