Life as a Train Journey

I love train journeys. Its a true reflection of our journey of life.You meet people , befriend them and next morning when you reach your destination you say goodbye to them .That s t.Think!!!!! of life as a train journey. When you are born into this world , you have a got a confirmed ticket. ye, ticket to live. You have started the journey of life. The destination for a train journey is Station and what s destination of journey of life???/ some people say death , some say self realisation, but isnt it soil our destination.???YE we rush and end up chaared in soil. Now you ve got the seat in journey of life, who are our co passengers in life?. Some already have boarded the journey of life ,they are our ,Parents. Then come friendsand life partners, they join us in every phase of life,like other passengers board from different stations.But each one will leave us when their destination reaches.We tend to remember some passengers in our train journey for quite a long time because we somehow are attracted to them. Likewise we tend to remember some goodfriends of ours even if we have lost touch with them .then comes our life partner- wife/husband.They shar e o ur seat in the journey of lifeat some point later , but you never know where they are headed to!!!!!!!! .We tend to be sad or disappointed when some pasengers whom we haveliked soo much in train journey . leaves us. Isnt the same sadness that will occur when our beloved parents and others leave us ??????. Coz neither we will meet the passenger or our parents again .Train Journeys are not without risks, thiefs may rob us.In real life also we have some ppl who are thieves who rob our happiness .Sometimes train stops coz there is no signal to move forward. Life also stops for a brief while,when we dont get the signal as to how to move forward. We travel through all sorts of lands, lush green paddy fields to barren lands, isnt it ironical that in the journey oflife , these lands depicts our phases of life?????
barren- when we feel bored lush- when we are full with energy.When the destined station comes we pack up but we never can predict when it will come just like we never know when we will end up in soil. But have we ever me the driver of train , in train journeys? answer may be NO , likewise in our journey of life, we ve never met the driver who takes us forward to the destination. Yeah we wud never meet God who s the real driver in this journey of life.

"barren- when we feel bored lush- when we are full with energy..."

well written...nd way to go...
we just sit in the train..the train takes us to the lush green and barren lands..do we have no role to play when it comes to when we are bored and or when we are energetic???
