The Chance..

You know how everyone says that life give you only one chance.. I just realised how true it is.

And also the fact that people don't see what life is offering them unless it is snatched away.

Just trying to think of the possibilities here.. why don't people recognize the good things they have in life??

Is it because they don't know how precious it is..? Or are they greedy to the point that makes them think that something better would come up?

I would say it is a combination of both, where unknowingly,under the influence of "greed",people tend to throw away so many beautiful things in life...

I have been talking about things here but i didn't tell what they are.. it could be anything and everything in life.. a good job, a nice car, a beautiful shirt... but these are not important. What is important from the perspective of life is the people around you and the emotions they bring.. the different kind of feeling they invoke in you..

Like a trustworthy old friend.. or a ur girl/boyfriend, ur spouse, ur parents...

So the big qs really is, how do we know whats "My Precious" ?? as with all questions involving heart and mind , there is no correct answer and neither is there a wrong one.

But there is one thing I do when i see myself in such dilemmas.. I separate myself from that thing for sometime and try and see how big a void has the absence of it has caused.. The bigger the void, the more precious the thing is...

And more often than not you will find the material things in life to be at the bottom of the list.. It will always be the people around you that you will miss the most.

There are two things here.. One is to Love someone truly and second is to know that you love that person.

We always naturally start liking someone and gradually that likeness grows into Love. But what doesn't come naturally is the knowledge that we love that person. For the lucky few this knowledge comes before all is lost and the person is still around. But for the rest.. well i just pray that they jump over to the other side. And realise the power of the invisible elixir of emotions and love that surrounds us.. the elixir that is refilled everyday by people who love us.. friends, family, loved ones.

And that's the chance I was talking about.. I hope that whoever gets a chance to love and be loved, should not let that go away and realise who is the one..

the one that fills ur heart with endless warmth,

the one whose absence feels like missing every breath,

the one whose presence makes everything devine,

the one whose voice makes everything rhyme,

the one who would never leave u ashore,

the one u love and the one who loves you back more..

I will end with a few famous lines and one of my favourites..

Chaahe jo tumhe poore dil se.. milta h woh mushkil se

Aisa jo koi kahin h.. bas wohi sabse haseen h..

Us haath ko.. tum thaam lo..

woh meharbaan..Kal Ho Na Ho..

Har Pal Yahan

Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama

Kal Ho Na Ho

Till then..

¡hasta luego!
