Life is not Victory but Battle

Life is a delicate blend of pessimion and optimion; one is its body and other soul. Optimism is the core of all human relationships which flashes endeavors to combat against hazards. Life is not a bed of roses is aptly befitted with the doctrine.
A great Nobel laureate Ernest Hemingway has said in his great novel “Old Man & the Sea” that “Man is not made for defeat” and “Man can be destroyed but can’t be defeated”. Life is a precious discourse which demands great courage, strength of mind and zest. We see, daily, the stumbling blocks, hazards and other impediments which block us to perform our zealous spirits to gain the finely tuned positions.
The greatest teachers and philosophers of the world have always enjoined a life of action and service, condemning flight from the world of retirement in seclusion and self-isolation. Goethe was the positive genius of the 19th century and the age that followed, when he said” Life is action, not contemplation” by contemplation, he meant sterile brooding and not that forward looking and fruitful contemplation which was the motive force behind all his own great achievements.

Sir Charles Darwin said while combating with life in his great voyage" Survival of the fittest", a doctrine for high morale and enthusiasm. For warriors, commanders, kings, queens, scientists, philosophers and students, life has not always been easy because of challenges, inventions, disputes and discoveries. Prophets have borne hardships and blood curdling attitudes in their ways to preach the message of God. Jesus Christ. Jacob, Noah, David, Jones, Joseph. Moses and Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) have been teased and tortured by the people but they went on preaching the message of God. Although the Prophets could choose the luxuries and bestowed facilities but they struggled and strove for the emancipation of suffering humanity.
The great wars of the world, from war of Trojan to 2nd world war; people fought to win their lives…life became a constant battle for them. But by the dint of their indomitable courage….they won and survived.
The great warriors, from Achilles to Napoleon Bonaparte; from, Joan of Arc to Razia Sultana, if not Shown Chivalry, they would not have been remembered. So whosoever showed confrontation against monarchs, dictators and saboteurs, taken life as battle rather than victory?
My dear friends,
In a life of action the mind enlarges and the spirit abounds. Detached from action the highest impulses and the noblest aspirations weaken and wither. It is through action that the loftiest ideals given to man fulfill themselves and man feels rich beyond the wealth of kings.
I think, time is very much short and we have to cover a long distance of sublimity, excellence and indifference. Our ambitions and goals are waiting us to prove our significance and capability.
War on terror and 9/11 have invited elongated hot debates of discussions which seem to be never ended but we all with all our meekness must to end it by all means. The "the clash of civilization" theory also tempted somber thoughts and finding measures to make this world peaceful and tranquil.
Human beings can revolutionize the entire scenario of the world with the help of their philanthropistic deeds & believe me; this is very time to "burry all hatchet" to make the world a paradise.

Life is not Victory but Battle, a message which can flourish the positive human traits by battling with the vices of state and society. Monopoly, banishments, forgery, nepotism, so-called domination of developed countries upon third world countries and many other are the vices prevailing presently within the globe which ought to be buried if we really want to transcend all the fake and flimsy shackles of time and space.
Dear fellows,
Promise today that we all construct this world an affectionate and compassionate place for all human beings.
