You are the only one with you till end.

“When we were born, we cried while the world celebrated. We should strive to live in a way that, when we die, the world mourns while we rejoice.”  

This powerful statement, shared with Robin Sharma by his father, invites us to deeply reflect on life, purpose, and how we choose to live.  

It quietly poses a tough question:  

Are we truly living, or just passing time?  

Will our lives matter to anyone?  

Will our presence, or absence, make a difference?  

In today’s world, we keep scrolling, consuming random content, imagining various scenarios, and drifting into digital lives. We act like living zombies, glued to our screens, forgetting the most important truth:  

“Who are we?”  

We have lost connection with ourselves and even with those closest to us. We either chase after responsibilities or waste precious hours without intent. In this rush, we overlook one of life’s greatest lessons—  

Only you can save yourself.  

Yes, others will support you. They may help you overcome fear, stress, or trauma. But eventually, you will find yourself alone with your thoughts. In those quiet moments, life teaches you that your greatest strength is you.  

Instead of learning this lesson, many of us crumble. We overthink, feel isolated, and sink deeper into despair instead of finding a way out.  

This leads us to a universal question:  

How do we find greater meaning in our lives?  

Meaning doesn’t come from escaping or seeking a magical version of ourselves. We are born with responsibilities—toward our parents, nature, and the world itself.  

We cannot ignore these duties.  

But we can stop neglecting ourselves.  

From the 24 hours you have each day, set aside at least one hour just for you.  

Nourish your mind.  

Celebrate your small victories.  

Do what brings you joy.  

Each person is born with something unique—a talent, a spark, a calling. Sadly, 99% of people never even try to find out what theirs is.  

In the book "Who Will Cry When You Die?", Robin Sharma discusses your calling—the voice of your heart that guides you toward your purpose.  

Discover that calling.  

Pursue it.  

Do something for yourself.  

Live with positivity and purpose so that you leave a mark—not just in others’ minds but also in their hearts. We may forget those who occupy our thoughts, but we will never forget those who dwell in our hearts.
