Life is like that...


There are times when you take an often travelled road to reach your destination but often landing up on a no man's zone which is no where near to where you wanted to reach. There are times when you buy a new dress, just on the basis of its tag, its 'in-quotient', its dirt cheap price or whatever, only to realize later that it could never be worn again and its going to spend its rest of the life in your overflowing cupboard. There are times when you give into the demands of your taste buds, overindulge in all those guilty pleasures and only later to realize the repercussions of overindulgence when the needle of the weighing machine has to bend itself hard to give you a glimpse of your fat. There are times when you start reading a novel purely by being fascinated it by its book cover and after browsing through 10 odd of its pages you realize that you have found a perfect pill for your sleeping disorder.

There are times when tried and tested things go horribly wrong; when rather than discovering your true calling, you go by what others say; when the materialistic beauty is more than enough for you to pin it down to your final choice and when you purely give in to the demands and the pressure of your surroundings.

And there are times when you don't know where your life is heading to, whether it’s all that you had actually longed for. But when you actually get it, you feel like ‘Boy!! This was unexpected but still I am loving it :D’

Life is like that, where things you disliked at the first sight, activities that you found boring and people whom you loathed earlier become a reason for you to look ahead and forward with all that positivity!!

Its uncertain, unthinkable, unpredictable, inconsistence, erratic, spontaneous, fussy, unstable, impulsive and these are the very things I love it for :D.

Hey...

You poured your heart out in this one. Nicely done!

I fully agree with you when you say "There are times..." as routine is what kills us the most. Experimentation, change and keep looking out for new avenues is what makes life exciting and colorful. who wouldn't want to be among "Been there, done that" kind.

Don't let this challenger die in you...Question the given at all times, and make your own way...Supporters, will always be there ;)

Why don't you become a co-author on my blog? We seem to explore the same theme - Life...

Cheers,
Sachin

hey buddy..

i just loved this one.
Life has been like this for me too. its always full of surprises, specially when one isn't ready for them.
Now i think i've started to take life as a surprise only. Its been years that something expected has happened to me.
I think this is what life is.. just about exploring the unexplored. As unpredictable as an ocean. Never know when its calm and when fierce.

keep it up..!
great! :D
