Such is Life!!

Life is a perfect player. Everyone is confronted by the ups and downs of life. No matter who you are, what you are and what you do, it just comes face-to-face to slap the hardships across your face.

Well, is it a test of time or is it a war between what you expected and what you got? I have always come out strong from these ups and downs of life. Even if that was juggling between exams of my double graduation or being sacked and thrown out of a job. I thought I handled it pretty well, until, my whole world started falling apart.

Right at the time when I thought I was happy enough, that I don't want anything else in life, and when I couldn't be better, there it was, standing right in front of me, looking me into the eye and telling me how wrong I am. At first, I didn't realize what was happening. I thought it is kind of a practical joke being played on me. Everything that I achieved, so far, was being taken away from my hands. I tried hard to keep my hands tight close so that nothing slips out of my hands.. but it felt as if my hands were not the one controlling anything.

Its always the hands of God, the Supreme Power, who is the one and only one who handle things for each and every one of us. He creates, grows, control and destroys everything- living or dead.
Well, the idea is that even when we think we are the one controlling our lives, its the life who is actually controlling us.

So, even when I cried, yelled, pleaded, I knew, it was not in my control to not let things go haywire in my life. I was desperate to bring things back to normal. The best part about all this was, it was not my fault. I wasn't suppose to feel all that. I was just doing what I was suppose to do.

I don't know how things came back to normal again. I didn't do anything. May be, not doing anything helps at times.

Life is a perfect player. When it gives you the ups and downs, it not only makes you strong enough to face them, but also gives you hope that after every night, there is a day and after every down, there is going to be an up again.

I think, thats why its said, "Such is life!!"
