UNCERTAINITY -THE ONLY CERTAINITY IN LIFE

When we start talking about life from a philosophical perspective , more often than not , something is going wrong with us ,maybe the ability to introspect comes at a price .. Was happy to see one of my friends being happy about good things coming his way in life and him taking the time to acknowledge and thank god for the same. Anyways last few days have been eye openers in the real sense of the word, about how things can change when you least expect them to , my optimism doesn't let me believe any change is ever for the bad, but at the same time , change is unsettling . I mean a small thing as moving apartments makes me resentful so imagine how tough it might be to change the entire life course. To be at home when you used to work , to wait for a visa..to wait on countless other things. I mean the person here in this position at this time wasn't supposed to be me but it is , and it really isnt as bad as it sounds but it is definitely one of the most frustrating experiences in my life so far. I mean its tough waiting on something you have no clue of , and it more weird cause you tend to plan your life far ahead on the basis of a stream of events. And the moment one event is missed, a lot falls out of line . And that requires massive re planning..which otherwise is a good intellectual activity but a tough one when you have just seen one set of u r plans not working out. You kind of lose the enthusiasm to plan and start looking at negative side of plans , if they dont work any which way why even take the effort to make them . But then things do settle down , just takes some time and patience is a virtue i have been trying to develop these days. On the good news front, the cold winter days in New York has given way to much more pleasant spring days, the winds are not that harsh any more and life seems to be peeping out of unexpected quarters. It is relaxing to just get out of the house without over coats and boots and mufflers and the like...to want to stay out to enjoy the weather , a welcome change from just a few days back when the moment you were out , you wanted to get somewhere and fast.
