My Conversation with my friend "Life":



Me: I really had to talk to you..I mean how do you manage being so uncanny all the time..you're so unpredictable and this amuses all of us all the time..so why are you this way??

Life: Well, i would have loved to be really simple and predictable but somehow i thought that would be so boring!! Thus i am not the same for everyone..and so like you behave and deal differently with different people so do i... what's wrong with that..and i am sure you all would have not wanted to live me longer if i were not like this,there would have been no fun at all you know! ;)
Me: Fun??!! well i guess when absolutely everything seems to be going the unexpected way..nothing seems right..! We feel so screwed up and you think its fun??
Life: Basically i am giving you a breather from your everyday boring life..I am sure its as refreshing as an adventure activity for you all...almost like a roller coaster ride of emotions ! Of course that's fun..but if you keep cribbing about it..you'll lose out on the thrill and experience.Its an irony my child..you'll never realize how much fun you had till that moment lasts..its only later on that you'll want to revisit and cherish those priceless moments again..like hanging out with friends or being thrown out of classes or being scolded by your folks or stammering in your viva's :P these moments may seem pretty embarrassing when they happen but they become profound
memories! So don't hold back and start enjoying !

Me: Ok, so you may be right here but again don't you think that these uncertainties that you throw at us breed insecurities in us!!?? and they make us aimless and haplessly depressed..what about that?

Life: My child, you need not get worried about these small games i play with you all the time..uncertainties should never stop you from trying..all i am trying do is giving you time to learn about your own self in this process..You don't need to be winning every game...because it doesn't matter in the long run,but you should aim at learning something from the experience all the time.Believe in me always and never assume that i'll leave you stranded ever..because i won't ever! Trust me..

Me: Guess you do have all the answers to my questions but here is a last one; Why does it happen that we can't take full control on our emotions during difficult situations?
Life: Well,that is true to a great extent for many,but that is because we sometimes think too much about things that don't really matter much so my advice is that let go..cause its easier to fly without much burden on your head and let me take the driving seat ; sit back and enjoy the scenery as it comes..

Me: :)

Life: God Bless you!!

  2. wow!! great thinking:) life definitely is a roller coaster ride..you dont know where it will lead you...but as you so correctly pointed out, that is where all the fun lies!!! the unfortunate part is that we don't understand this beautiful concept early on in life and all we do is crib(as you again so correctly pointed out)and we tend to become miserable over something we have no control over instead of sitting back and taking out the positives from each situation. :)
