not ready ....

what is ready?

when we say we are ready for something? how ready are we? is readiness the prepared-ness to take on the possibles? is ready defined by the holistic angles covered? is ready the term that stands through the test of time?

I guess ready is just a philosophy with a degree of correctness and possibility, we cannot be 100% ready because to say that, is to achieve ultimate perfection ... and readiness ... isn't it a combination of mental and physical dimensions?

Can I say I am ready for the job? not always, but the way forward is just attitude & approach to it ... guess sames goes to readiness in friendship & relationship ...

Readiness is also the will power to let go ... of lesser components, in sacrifice for bigger game ... in order to jump to a higher league and dimension.

We all say at some time of our life that we are not ready, I was never ready to grow up, never ready to take responsibility, but everyday, we make choices and these choices branch from attitude & values. So, while we can never be ready, we eliminate it by choosing to reduce it.

I am not ready to take on the responsibility of my new job, but i make my choice to face it & find solutions ... I am not ready to love someone, but I take the 1st step into an unknown and my fear to seek my feelings ....

then again, should we rather term it as not ready or getting started? I love to term it as ... just a matter of perspective & definition ...
