Life is surprising, take the way as it comes to you...!!


What is life? Is it just the time span for which one’s heart beats, one breathes? Is it the period for which definition of time and its being flowing exists for an individual?
Or is it something more than that? Is our survival on this earth individualistic and independent of others? Is our life just ours? The list of questions is endless, which I keep pondering about and I arrive nowhere at the answers. We have great plans for future, without knowing our destiny at the next moment! Strange, but true. The fact is that our destiny is decided before our birth. God has given everyone a certain task , and the years of our life are decided by the time required for the task to be accomplished, and so our life cannot end all of a sudden. Life is a cycle; we are born, we grow with our family, our parents are there to hold us whenever we fall, all the people we know are tied to us by bonds called ‘blood relations’, and our family is the only group of people we know. We grow, we make friends. ‘ Friends’, a small word with a deep meaning. We find friends in life, and when we get true friends, we actually find life in them. A friend is a person whom we choose on our own, whom we are compatible with and with whom our comfort level is set.
However, nothing can be ‘eternal’ or long-lasting. Neither  your  possessions and obsessions, nor your  feelings and sentiments.  We came empty handed, so we go. But life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. The past is gone, the future is unseen. All in your hand is your present. Live it the best way you can. Of course one should have plans for future, or else we will not have a path to follow, and when life ceases to flow, everything becomes stagnant. And we should of course try to resolve the differences that have arisen with people whom we care for. We should try to repair our past, if it is beneficial for days to come.  But being entangled in past and future, don’t forget to live today; because ‘today’ is just today, and can never be again. To repent for it later makes no sense.
In the words of an author, “He spent all his life waiting for something WONDERFUL to happen, the only WONDERFUL thing that happened was life!!!”

Life changes a lot with time, and change is inevitable, be it a change for good, or a change for bad. But every change leaves you with an experience. Our lifestyle can be mundane and tedious, and a boring stuff or so, but not the life! Life is different every moment, every moment is surprising, every second is a new experience. Take life as it comes to you. Think less. Enjoy more. Do what you wish. Don’t just spend life, live it, feel it, experience it to the fullest; for it’s the only thing which can give you eternal happiness and satisfaction. Live for your family, live for your friends, live for your dream and passion. But above all, spend life with your best friend, and that’s “you”...!
