My first post

Greetings everyone!
A few days back, I was pondering the reason for all the ups and downs that I was facing. I was praying to God to set right all of my problems for now and I would then be in a better position to solve the other problems. I then started thinking why I would solve the other problems whereas I wanted Him to solve my problems now. Am I running away from my life ? Am I making false promises to God ? Am I fooling myself ? I then realised that all this is part of the drama that God is enacting and we are just actors. So all I have to do is just PLAY THE GAME! I remembered that my Guru, Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba has said " Life is a challenge, meet it! Life is a dream, realize it! Life is a game, play it! Life is Love, enjoy it! "
But this is so difficult. We often get so involved with our lives that we are constantly getting affected by the joys and sorrows and that makes us all the more vulnerable to the problems we face.
My solution is to constantly remind ourselves that Life is a Game and all we have to do is play it. Play it like a professional. Give it our best and not care about the results.
With this motto, I am hoping to sail this life and reach God!
Keep smiling,
Sairam,
Vijay.
