Life is an enigma...It starts without our knowledge, grows without our suggestions and ends without our consent. Life is not about 'either-or', its all about 'this-and-that.'
This is a space where joy and sorrow walk hand in hand, this is a space where triumph and disaster are two sides of the same coin, this is a space where all and none exists!!!!! It is on us.... what we wish to see and what we choose to ignore.
Failure brings with it the joys of learning, the knowledge to appreciate that its human to err and the wisdom to accept that certain things are beyond our control.
Life is beautiful with all its colours, some bright some dull some in stark contrast while some in shades. Its the amalgamation of all that makes it so rich. The light wouldnt be welcome if there was no darkness, success wouldnt be celebrated if there were no fear of failure, a smile wouldnt be appreciated if there were no tears.
The good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly, the right and the wrong- they are all within us. its all about what we choose and when??
Happines is a choice and not a chance. Afterall, life is 15% of what happens to us and 85% of how we react to it. As Henry Ford said, "If you think you can or you can't, you are always right."
So today, lets make a choice.......
