The Past and the Future: Life Hanging in there

It is when you start realizing the facts of the life, you start noticing the change in yourself. There are a lot of things that you didn’t know about yourself and about others that you find now. There are a lot of hidden secrets about the close ones that were never revealed to you. There are reasons behind every second of the time in your life and millions of other lives. Every time you do something, you turn it into a memory of some kind, either good or bad.

If you see through the open doors and windows of your mind, everything will start making sense after appearing meaningless for some extended period of time. This period can be short for some people or some situations or can be invariably long for others. All that matters is how well you can deal with them or adapt to the new truths of life. For a long time now my life has revolved around one incidence that changed me and the meaning of life. It brought with it some good things and some bad ones. The good ones included my improved reading and writing skills, my concentration towards myself, my life and my health, my closeness to spiritualism and psychology of life and human mind, study of human behavior; my work and more importantly a good bond between my close and dear ones. The bad one includes just few things: my inability to stop thinking about it and my question that why things like this happen.

It is not just me. Everybody goes through something in their life. You feel you are the only one and you get frustrated then you find peace in doing something and all of a sudden you are fine. These problems resurface from time to time and every time it appears you find it difficult to deal with them. In this process you find out several ways in which you can find peace and positivity, even though it is just for time being. You end up trying all sorts of things and you will eventually make opinions about what you like and what you don’t. On such occasions, the likes and dislikes become stronger. You begin to find the path that you want to follow but then you end up questioning yourself why are you even doing this. You are scared of the results. You want to stop where you are because you don’t know where it will lead to and the consequences can be anything.

The frustration looms you and the darkness of negativity surrounds you and clouds your eyes. The wait flows down through your cheeks like the water through the fresh petals of a flower. After this flow the flower spreads its freshness all around itself and the smell to far distance. Yes, you do the same thing. Once you come out of that cloud of tears, you are more positive and fresh and full of ideas, the ideas that you want to share with others, that can give them an insight into their lives.

The constant battle between the past and the future often makes your present like a carom. Your past keeps rebounding and distracts your decision making in present and hence the future gets affected, to what extent, no one knows. You find out only when you go to that future as a present situation. At times you feel you are stuck with some situation and there is absolutely no way out. You will talk to friends and try to figure a way out but even that doesn’t help only if you end up talking to some stranger and telling your story to a stranger will help you get the insight of what you cannot see and what that stranger can see, you will also get over the fear that you will be judged. You end up listening to what you could not have thought had happened.

Isn’t this the beauty of life what it makes you go through and makes you turn and spin in the roller coasters every now and then? Isn’t this the harshness of life that it makes you learn the lessons the hard way? This is life. DEAL WITH IT or let’s say EITHER PUT UP OR SHUT UP. And we all do either or both.
