Life! Love! Chaos! Death! But...

Message: Our days are numbered And so is this love, But the blues, Like longing, They stay. Mother, Will I stop dying, Someday?                       - Mona ***************************** Response: Our days maybe numbered, But not the love. In the eternity of lifetime. It's all upon us, How we choose it to spread. The blues, They make us better, For whatever is coming next. Just take one day at a time, Savor every moment; Until death comes, When we just mock it on it's face, As it failed to make us miserable, For every single day we lived and loved.                                                       -Me ***************************** Story of the above lines is that I woke up today with some lines sent to me by a friend.

Disclaimer: This post is result of some of new events and stream of thoughts which flooded me over the last week. Proceed at your own risk. I just started writing it because I wanted to unload the thoughts from my mind. Scenario#1 : Sometimes life doesn’t give you with any options and you end up being confused upon what to do? Sometimes you think: Why do some people are so lucky? Why do they keep on getting the opportunities they get? Why don’t you get those opportunities? Why is it that some people get the opportunities, even if they don’t deserve on such a frequent basis and you don’t get them at all? There are millions of such questions which keep on coming to your mind. Because even if you try, you are not able to make any progress. Scenario #2 : Then there are phases when you end up getting opportunities to work on. Loads and loads of them will come.The winds will be so much pleasant that you’ll be able to try each and every thing that’s coming to your plate. Those will
