I am amazed at how much the human mind is capable to stretch its
confines and truly we ourselves are our own source of peace and dissonance. On
an another related note, I have also observed how some of us are able to sort
out glaring issues for friends, well-wishers and the like easily and well very
practically. What baffles me is when as individuals we get stuck in between our
very own choices and emotions become the ruling factor. It also makes these
issues uncomfortably indispensable when we find ourselves addressing these very
choices as being 'Grown Ups' or how our society expects us to handle things.
Hey I am sure we all got a one shot at this growing up phase! So how come some
got it right while the rest went into deep introspection and then BOOM a reality
check made its way though the other relatively crazy lot. Shockers anyone? Spoiler alert:
Welcome to Life.
Also while we are in this stretch of adulthood, it
magically happens that we reach this whole new 'Marriageable Age' phase. Trust
me you are possibly in the craziest lap of your lives by this time, you
have a career to look at, socialize with the right people and then hold your
horses whacko, get married..(will you just get a match already!) and thus
starts the vicious cycle of never ending decisions and dilemmas. Like someone,
get them to meet the family, not sure what your match is, bat an eyelid and the
count of matrimonial sites on the cloud is more than the grey hair strands you
are probably beginning to get by now.
I have come to terms that running away from decisions is just a
procrastination phase bound to go wrong. It’s actually helpful to have a plan
in place, know what you want and set a timeline for yourself and not because
you were pushed to do so. Cool and clueless do not go hand in glove, neither
does cooking and fast food.
2015 is almost down by a month and I am taking this moment to
recall what all I have been looking ahead for during the year. I have always
believed that the Creator has been very kind to me and has been watchful of my
doings. Through Him I can always count on my instincts to guide me during the
testing times and while I am pretty sure this year would be nothing less of a
roller coaster ride I will be saving my decisions for the better, for when the
time comes of taking one of the many grown-up decisions, I hope to take them
and lead a meaningful life.
Having said all this in a parallel world I also believe that if
your definition of a meaningful life relies on being successful in your career or being the activist of your
society who got unwillingly pulled into settling for the monotonous crap of the
earth, please do me a favour and say the F word aloud. Yes, you suck just like
all the Bigg Boss episodes and I sincerely hope the aliens up there are having
a good laugh at you.
