Hello. Did you call me?
Me: Called you? No.. who is this?
God : This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I
thought I will chat.

Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am
actually busy now.I am in the midst of something.
God : What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.

Me: Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has
become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.
God : Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity
gets you results. Activity consumes time.
Productivity frees it.

Me: I understand. But I still can't figure out. By the
way,I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on
instant messaging chat.
God : Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time,
by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted
to reach you through the medium you are
comfortable with.

Me: Tell me, why has life become complicated
now?
God : Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is
what makes it complicated.

Me: why are we then constantly unhappy?
God : Your today is the tomorrow that you worried
about yesterday. You are worrying because you
are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit.
That's why you are not happy.

Me: But how can we not worry when there is so
much uncertainty?
God : Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is
optional.

Me: But then, there is so much pain due to
uncertainty.
God : Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.

Me: If suffering is optional, why do good people
always suffer?
God : Diamond cannot be polished without
friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good
people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that
experience their life become better not bitter.

Me: You mean to say such experience is useful?
God : Yes. In every terms, Experience is a hard
teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons
afterward.

Me: But still, why should we go through such
tests? Why cant we be free from problems?
God : Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks
Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance Mental
Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and
endurance, not when you are free from
problems.

Me: Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we
don't know where we are heading....
God : If you look outside you will not know where
you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside,
you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes
provide sight. Heart provides insight.

Me: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to
hurt more than moving in the right direction. What
should I do?
God : Success is a measure as decided by
others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by
you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying
than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the
compass. Let others work with the clock.

Me: In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
God :Always look at how far you have come rather
than how far you have to go. Always count your
blessing, not what you are missing.

Me: What surprises you about people?
God : when they suffer they ask, "why me?" When
they prosper, they never ask "Why me". Everyone
wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to
be on the side of the truth.

Me: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here. I
cant get the answer.
God : Seek not to find who you are, but to
determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a
purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is
not a process of discovery but a process of
creation.

Me: How can I get the best out of life?
God : Face your past without regret. Handle your
present with confidence. Prepare for the future
without fear.

Me: One last question. Sometimes I feel my
prayers are not answered.
God : There are no unanswered prayers. At times
the answer is NO.

Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so
happy to start the New Year with a new sense of
inspiration.
God : Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't
believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is
a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust
me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.
