Sometimes, This Is What Life Is About..

Sometimes, life's like an abandoned, ruined mansion,whose pieces are scattered par recollection. Slowly the greenery of sadness and sorrows, and events around absorb the view, as they start growing on the ruins. And a sense of normalcy is restored. As everything looks as if nothing ever existed there before the greenery and the ruins, since eons. Seeping through the cracks of the ruins is Life, or what's left of it, flowing along, but doesn't know its path upstream. How can anything so broken,so damaged, flow upwards? How can things go right, if the whole base, the whole foundation is wrong; with no risks involved, unlike the salmons jumping upstream, getting caught by the grizzlies? Like being scared about making choices, because you're scared they might be wrong? 

Because this is not life, this is not what life is all about. This prolonged existence of the ruins, lived upon by the greenery of sorrows and vines of sadness is not it, because below it, still the base remains,to be dug up,to be built again.

People often walk down a lane,where they can't make a turn ever, so do most of the events around us. That doesn't mean we just sit down at that point and assume it is normal. No, it isn't.

This prolonged era of whatever that was, the whole assumption was wrong, of course.  

Life's something that sits on the dandelions, loitering and gliding in the open blue sky, location-untraced and destiny-unknown.

Life's sometimes strange and magical, like rising from it's own ashes, just like the phoenix; for a whole new beginning, and touching lives along. Life's that mansion to be rebuilt, choices to be made, those salmons still jumping upstream, with all those risks involved.

As a couple of epic lines from the movie "17 again" went by -

"When you're young and something goes wrong happens, everything seems the end, but it isn't. You get hurt by someone and perhaps you have to meet a couple of such jerks more, till you find the perfect person who treats you just the way you ought to be, like a princess, like the sun rises and sets with you."

So true. So for me, maybe a few jerks more,maybe a few risks more and no more use blaming destiny or whatsoever reasons for life not happening, because you need to make it happen. The element that's needed to make it work, the secret ingredient is You, Yourself!! :)
