POT OF GOLD - A Leaf out of my Diary...

Life and its unexpected twists and turns, the spontaneity of life, the promptness of its course. I find it difficult to comprehend it at times. You want to interpret it your way, unknown of what it actually might be. And, hence, there lingers a thought in your mind - life is so uncertain, should I think about its events or should I let it pass. Then comes the part where you contemplate whether or not you should interpret it your way. Coz in any case, life will keep moving the way it wants to; ruled by its elder sibling - Destiny. Many of us say, "I make my own destiny". Well, really?? Do you?? I would say - You only perform and make your Plan B in place. You dont make destiny. Then again I think is it true??? Well, I guess it is. To an extent yes and to an extent no... Thats a better way of putting it I guess. Dunno how much sense it makes though.

You make destiny a little way through and then destiny makes you the other little way through. The point where we both meet is what we call our PRESENT. With the past gone by and future uncertain - brings to the same question - "How do I interpret the things of my life?? What meaning do I derive out of it?? Should I try and control it or should I just play alongside??

Full of questions!!!! Thats what is life is about, I guess. Lots of questions and hidden answers to all of them as well. Answers, we don't see out and plain. Answers - we find on introspection of self, of the surroundings, of the situations. But answers exist. Deep down somewhere within us - just a little effort from our end and we would see them all. And when we find these answers to all our questions - we hit the POT OF GOLD!!!

The Pot of Gold, we read about, in the fairy tales - that existed at the bottom of the rainbow. No wonder people call life a Journey. A journey in search of this pot of gold. A journey of new discoveries, new revelations. A journey to the rainbow, to the pot of gold.

Just a little wish for all of us - "May we all hit the pot of gold in this lifetime."
