Destined or Deserving

Very often I see people cursing the situation or blame the person who isn’t actually the one to catalyze it. Many a times, even you would have heard, “Why me?” I would rather put it in this way that, “Uncertainties are the unloved situations, which make you learned.” You make a fool out of yourself, you learn the biggest life lessons through them, you become smarter and of course wise/r. Every silliest, stupidest, or thoughtful action which yields results in favor or may be not teaches you a lesson. I always believed that age is only about numbers. Count your life by how grateful, happy, loved and healthy you’ve felt. You live just that much.

One of my friend introduced me to the very famous book ‘The Secret’. I was randomly reading the pages of my interest and smiling because I have always been so positive about circumstances, people and as life rolls out. “Thoughts become things”, is one of the very crucial statement in that book. But have you heard anybody who wishes to have cancer to know the hardships of the patient. No one would ever want to leave their family and fight at the border for the nation to feel the pain of missing family and children. Maybe you go once and forever. Nobody wishes to become a beggar to understand the everyday struggle for bread and butter. You don’t want to be ill-treated, mugged, or disrespected before treating others with respect. You never wish to play like those naked kids in the mud when it rains or wear slippers made of plastic bottles to feel humble of the luxuries you own. Many such examples have always kept me grounded to my values and principles. Probably, because I have very little than a lot of you, but still it is too much because half of it is still unused or untouched. Those little things that a lot don’t even have access to and for thousands of others it is still on the cart. But every time something out of the blue happens which shocks you, or hurts you, you’d say that patent line, ” It happened because it was written.” Written? Like by whom? Did you ever wished it to happen to you and you had sent the message in the stratosphere so that you learn when it hits your head someday. Or you want to blame destiny or may be god. Blaming is convenient. But acceptance of your silliness, ignorance or the consequences of your own actions is the hardest part.

All I am trying to say is, everything keeps repeating itself until you’ve learned the lesson. So rather than blaming or cursing the situation or people, do the needful, do the right. Every eye gets to see an unexpected action and reaction. I feel rich, because I have the heart to share that very little without a hitch. I feel rich, because I still love with all my heart, even after losing the ones I loved the most and being back stabbed by close friends. I am strong because I stood up to collect my broken pieces and assembled them in my own Vinci code. I am wiser because I believe more in myself than the masks which have improved with time and technology.

Life is probably only about saying,” Okay, I get that.” Unless you do, the important lessons which you are bound to learn keep recurring at some point or the other. I am liable to be kind when we meet because I know you are going through life and I can’t be judgemental because I hardly know you. What you were just before this lesson and what you become tomorrow, are not the same individuals.

In my words,
Watch your thoughts. They are the only demons and angels accompanying you.

I can be a negative or a positive influence on the people. But what is paramount here is, we should be a positive one on ourselves.

Lots of love
