Positive thinking turning adversity into good luck

Only if I knew, life is all the more phenomenal day we learn to put others first, even before our self, I would have been a Happy Prince all my life not only after brain stroke paralysis:

Wish I had been learning to have correct priorities all along in my life and utilized my time and energies more judiciously. Wish I had an accurate and realistic price list available to me because everything has a price to be paid e.g. to have a life full of the fragrance of bliss, maximum spending is required to buy patience, tolerance, etc. and to have the fragrance of loving friends perhaps the minimum price to be paid is little ego. Wish I was truly free from the slavery of my desires and lived for others like Happy Prince of Oscar Wild and I would have been living a life filled with pleasures of tranquility and contentment. I think my regret list is getting inflated so might as well come to the topic, the account of a brain stroke to stroke of luck becoming a stroking love.

At a certain stage in our life, we need to pause a little and revisit our priorities in life, we might realize “all that glitters is not gold”, same as all sources of worldly wealth like big qualifications, big jobs, big bank balance, heaps of wealth and property for which we sell our lives to earn a lifestyle that is MOST IN. We think spending all our lives on this, otherwise, futile earning would be a great strength and help in old age but as the journey on the other side of the hill starts, it proves to be a big folly. On the contrary, what could come to our rescue and help perhaps would have been our abilities to share and shed away all that we kept hoarding all our life and if I learned this I surely would have been a Happy Prince, a long time back, much before this brain stroke.

What I need at this stage of my life, perhaps I never worked and prepared myself for, I need more smiles on my face need more happiness in my life and for all this, I wish I had been learning to be a grateful person. If my left arm and left leg is not working to their full capacity even if my banks and lockers were full it couldn’t do a damn about it. YES, if my phone is full of sincere prayers, best wishes from my friends, and my heart so full of the exuberance of solace and tranquility, I am no less than a Prince because from the very early days of my ailment I just wished to be a paintbrush and it made me a Happy Prince.

If my brain with partly missing brain cells due to stroke is full of ideas that can help put a smile on someone in pain and agony I am perhaps happier than HAPPY PRINCE OF Oscar Wild and that is really a big Stroke of Luck & stroking love after stroke.

Realized after brain stroke paralysis what really is useful for me today and now on and what is worthless but why do we have to wait for trauma to learn the priorities in our lives and learn to handle all kinds of challenges in life.

With bundles of prayers and best wishes for all my BELOVED friends who are all happy princesses and princes ❤

LIFE IS PHENOMENAL WHEN LIVED FOR OTHERS

I feel I am lucky to have attended multifarious institutions including schools from very remote areas of Pakistan to the prestigious institutions like Government College University of Lahore, Pakistan Military Academy from where I luckily graduated at a 2nd position missing the sword of honor only by one position. I did my basic Helicopter Conversion from Bell Helicopter International in Isfahan, Iran and an Instrument Rating from Fort Rucker Alabama. After being a flight instructor for about 10 years I got early retirement and since then I am teaching Religious Studies and Islamiyat to O & A Levels. A profession I feel has given me great sense of achievement besides so many good people as my beloved students who are like a family now, which I take as an asset to me. 31 Jan 2019 had a brain stroke, this challenge has given me now a unique purpose in my life, to be a source of benefit for all & help everyone in Recovery from all agonies even paralysis. This humble effort has been a big source of HOPE for me as I take hope to be; (H) helping (O) other (P) people (E) evolve
