In
particular of course the cities of Bombay, Delhi, Agra (with the Taj Mahal) and
certainly also Kashmir came across to me as an infinitely moving mass of ants,
people, continuous honking cars and in between cows, horses, goats and
thousands of street dogs enjoying themselves the waste that you really couldn't
ignore.
People
who almost attacked you to sell you something. Beggars everywhere from (very)
small to large. A future for these people?
The
experiences we had were countless in this multicultural country. And because you
not only look at it but are also literally moving in the energy, it makes
you think and reflect. Many things came to our minds.
One of
those things in my mind was that in many training sessions that I followed, I
was often told that you can achieve everything if you believe in it, go for it
and never give up. You can live your dream. I also often wrote about it in my
blogs. After this experience in India it has become a utopia for me. It is not true
for all of us.
Yes, I
live my dream and have achieved what I (and especially my parents) had in mind.
I have more on my shelf and I trust that it will work out. But is that normal?
Will you succeed as long as you don't give up? No absolutely not. It really
needs a little (no a lot) more and that has everything to do with your base.
I have
had no influence on the place where I was born. Not on the parents I had. Not
the opportunities that were waiting for me in the culture I grew up with. Not
on it that I actually never had lack of necessary money. Not about luck
factors.
Being
able to live your dream is not only about your own dedication, but also about
the basis on which and with which you ended up here on this planet and lots of luck.
India is
"underprivileged" for the vast majority of people born and living
there. Sometimes I have to be deeply ashamed of my beautiful stories. We
regularly fell silent there. And at the end of our journey we told each other
how grateful and happy we can be for the places where we were born and the
opportunities we have had and will have and that we could make this journey
together.
Nice to
have been able to feel that deep inside. What do we propose as not even being a
‘pinhead’ of the population on this earth? Why we make ourselves upset about to
many things and do we worry? We may not be happy, no, we have to.
