Good things are coming in the way.

Isn’t it amazing how we react in life?

Same situation, same person, same place, same time.. But the reaction is always different,

Some days I am unnecessarily irritated,

Some days I am so calm that I can take a million rough tides with a smile on my face.

Some days I am so happy that no matter what dilemma you are in, I will solve it.

This is the most precious aspect of human nature.

No one can predict how the other person will react.

I went out with a mindset and when I actually did it,

It was completely opposite!

Either I sit down cribbing over what didn’t happen,

Or I laugh it out and enjoy what I have in hand.

Recently something like this happened,

I went to watch an animation movie and after we sat in the theatre,

We realized that it was a horror movie.

I could have been very sad about not being able to watch the much-awaited picture,

Instead, we chose to laugh it out.

What a memorable incident this will remain,

All the laughter, the giggles and that unending conversation over how could this happen.

Life is similar if it throws a curveball at you.

Don’t start panicking and behaving like a victim.

Take a step back, pause and breathe.

Everything will happen, it’s all in your destiny.

Call up somebody how listens to you at the same time shows you the right mirror,

Talk about it and find a way out.

I would prefer being confused and numb rather than angry and frustrated.

I would prefer making mistakes in the beginning rather than giving up on the start line.

I would prefer giving it a shot rather than comparing the alternate options if I quit.

If you fall, get up and this time, start afresh with more energy,

Good things are coming in the way.
