Expect the unexpected!

You will get one chance twice in one life, only if you are too lucky!

Often we have heard the saying, life has all whims and fancies and most of the time takes another route while you were too busy planning out something else. Sometimes, I have wondered how vital our decisions are in this ever-changing life. Since childhood, there are milestones which were set which had always appeared to be straight route. After more than twenty years of meaningful survival, when I look back, the route seems twisted.

We say luck is when planning meets circumstances! Great thought! Because most of the time, planning meets eternity! You plan to become an astronaut; you land in some IT Company. You plan to have a relaxing weekend; you end up getting loads of work. You plan for work that is expected, you end up re-planning after some days. You speculate in stocks, think of 'x', stocks behave 'y'. You plan for Fiat, end up in Santro. Human life is spent 50% on thinking. Life is spent 100% on facing the unexpected.

All time our only wish is to control our lives, to decide on what our future is going to be, to beat the cycle of patterns and to follow your heart with your planning. But often it is seen that all this effort is futile. While you have thought of what you want, slowly the life creeps away. What is left – planning in pieces, scattered all around, crying out loud, ‘Why didn’t you think early, start before?’ J Ironical but who doesn’t play the blame game.

That’s why I say, you will get one chance twice in one life, only if you are too lucky – at least then you can put your plans for purpose to succeed in what you wanted!!!
