Retrospection
The past year was enlightening. It brought with it some joy, lots of learning, and still some unanswered questions. Joy came in small packets and made the tough times much bearable. Each packet of joy never propelled the self out of reality; in fact it made the grounding to reality even stronger. The learning sunk in better with these kind blessings. It was the period of most learning till date. Learning, not of textual or official knowledge, but of life and living on a level never felt before. Age and time have got to do something with this perhaps. Experience can never be belittled and youth is not always the best answer to every problem. Faith in simplicity and honesty became stronger. Simplicity is beautiful. Pretention became a hated quality. Human values were the buzz word in every sphere of living. There are things one can’t possibly do in one’s life – that realization lifted much burden. Acceptance soothed agitated minds. The journey became more pleasurable when the destination was not the prime focus. Competition turned inwards and now the self competes with the self. Still, there are questions that are yet to be answered, but the wait is worth its weight in gold – the answers will certainly be beautiful.
