Life In Loops

"Just when you think you have got it all settled..... It's time for the wheel of time to take up an untoward twist. "

We have all been witness and have experienced a point in time when every now and then we are either at the peak of joyous satisfaction or the epitome of a hopeless heartbreaking situation.  These are two vividly recognisable and memorably identifiable times that keep approaching us in our daily lives and day to day interactions.

In such times our mind and heart reach upto a soulful halt in our enthusiastic self and untapped flow of our energy. These are the times that make us slow down and question the very existence of our problems and the remote possibility of finding a solution. This is actually when the plan of the divine settles or totally unsettles our immediate plan regarding the purpose of our lives.

All of us are facing challenges at one level or the other. The noteworthy commonality in all our situations is that while all of us are fighting our own wars; none of us is less fierce  as a fighter than any of our counterparts. Though we might under-assess the wars of existence that the others are struggling with probably due to getting blinded or overwhelmed by our own struggles and sacrifices.  But,  such beliefs are never true. Many of us highlight our troubles and feel low but many of us are those who mask their troubles and maintain a low.  It is never bad to voice your troubles but ignoring the pain of others while over exaggerating our own situations would make the society insensitive and fake.

In life there is no single right or wrong path; unless you can answer and satisfy your own conscience - nothing in the world can stop you.

Our troubles are only the trough of the waves in the ocean of life which is sheltering all of us. And when you are at the lowest point in this trough just then the rising crest will begin to take you up and higher to a peak of joy. This cyclical rise and fall of difficulties and challenges is what precisely life is all about.  Changing times bring a promise of growth and opportunities that could go untapped if we don't learn to grow with them.

The loops of life make us rise and fall everyday,  every moment and sometimes also puts us in situations which leave us with a learning for our lifetime or a bright hope for a future untold.

The mantra for life is to trust that every dark cloud has a silver lining and to hold on to the promise of a better future that the silver lining would bring.
