I started to put my thoughts into words. Just then my phone rang. As
expected, it was the call from my twin. I let her do most of the talking as I
usually did. I firmly believe listening has a wonderful capacity to solve
problems. At least, to some reasonable extent. So was the case here
too. I was happy making her comfortable.
Returning to my piece of writing, I sat staring at the screen, trying to
recollect the topic I wanted to write. Ten minutes of hurried talk had drifted
me away. I failed to regain my focus. My mind kept going back to
the conversation I had with her. I could not stop wondering on how easily
I let myself pull away from my goal. The same is with our lives
too. We let trivial things take control of our lives drifting us away
from our goals.
Every phase of life has obstacles, opportunities, challenges, trials and
success. Nothing brings life to a halt. So why worry on petty
things?
Life doesn’t need to be taken seriously all the time. Some people
too need not be taken seriously. We can always pull out the relevant lesson
learnt from the gamut of experience and apply in our day-to-day dealings to
lead a smart peaceful life.
Life gives us everything we wish for but in its own unique way. A
little shift in our perspective and a little of patience can go a long way!
