DEAR AUNTYJI

Recently I turned 40 and I am starting to worry that life is going by sooo quickly. Just yesterday it was 2018 and now it's 2019 and soon it will be 2020. I am worried that I won't be able to do all the things I want to do. I’m not having an existential crisis, I am happy with my life - I have a good job, a loving wife, two wonderful children and I like to think I am a kind human being who helps others. But still Auntyji, don't you think that it's shocking how fast life is going? Do you have any tips for how I can stop thinking like this, Auntyji? Half my life is over and I have not done everything I wanted. Please provide some advice.

AUNTYJI

Says

Sabko ek din marna hai; kyon pareshaan ho rahe hain? The meaning of life is this, my nadaan nasamajh We are born. We do stuff. And then we die. Sometimes if we are lucky, the length of time from janam to maran is long, and sometimes, not so much. But the thing is this. Each day that we are here, we should feel grateful for this

Seeking well settled boy in Australia (businessman or professional) for a Hindu life we are given. We don't come with guarantees that our life will be long - so we should focus on appreciating what we have, rather than what we will lose by time flying. If agle janam mein you don't want to come back as a kutta or ullu or cockroach, to focus kijiye nah on all the good things you can do in the service of others in the short time you have. And yes, I agree that time is flying. As you get older, this is a known thing. But what to do? You can't stop time. You can't avoid dying. The only thing you can do is to focus on the here and now and make each day count. You have lived 40 years. Many have not had that privilege. And you don't know kitne din aur baaki hain! So fill your days with good deeds, serve others and be happy that you rose this morning to see the suraj. At this point, I quote Amitabh Bachchan from Muqqadar Ka Sikander: Zindagi to bewafa hai, ek din thukrayegi; maut mehbooba hai, apne saath lekar jayegi. Amitji is 100% right. Maut go gale lagao like Sikander. That's your only guarantee. Life is a mayaa bewafa. Bewafa se nain kyon lada rahe ho?
