Life (sometime) doesn't go the way you want it...

It isn't quite uncommon for a new age Homo Sapien to curse his life for it not align to what he wants. People are frustrated with their loved ones, their grades at school / college, their boss, their job, their private or professional life, with everything. In their act of cursing someone or something, often they look at only one side of the coin while totally ignoring what is there on the other side. One should realize that the question isn't why it happened the way it happened but what steps did I take to make it end like this?

There are some things that aren't in your hand and you really can't do much about it. But for others, there is always a second choice. They say, 10% of your life isn't under your control but the remaining 90% is the outcome of what choice did you make. Life always gives you a second chance and a second choice and if you don't have it, the show isn't over yet.

In the last one week, I have met several people who really don't know from where are they going to get their next meal. They are all over the streets of Delhi and no matter how much I try to help that someone on a traffic signal, the situation doesn't get any better. Everytime it's a new face, a new life begging for a Rs 5 note from your wallet. I am not talking charity here but my point is that think about those people who don't even have that much control on the things happening aorund them. Now, is it good for you to curse yourself or your luck or whatever? God has blessed you with an option to make a choice. Don't insult that gift.

I always believe that whatever happens, happens for good. If it had to end this way, probably it was best for you. Probably the other side could have been even worse that you might not even stand by that.

I wish that things go really well in your life and I hope that you make the right choice at the right time.

God Bless You
