Moving on

Moving on

Bearing witness to the passage of time is no little thing. Each moment passes away, without most of the players not knowing that a little bit of their lives, an irretrievable (so far, at least) experience is passing them by. If only, it were possible to remind oneself of this fact, all the time. I believe that, it would make any sane person appreciate the invaluable nature of time and make corrections to his/her life to make the best out of what’s left of life.

The yin-yang concept of the ancient Orientals is one the best ways to describe the mystery of life itself. Where there is darkness, light will surely come in the future. Bright spots too get marred by dark patches. Such is the rollercoaster of life. When there are sudden dark patches, a feeling of utter helplessness sometimes occurs.

You become disoriented, not knowing what to do next. Despair looms ominously over your shoulders. A depressive spell may be awaiting you. There is a way out from this. There maybe many such ways, but I personally think that, talking about the situation, to a friend, proves to be very effective in making you reclaim the realm of normalcy.

Such reality checks have both good, as well as bad sides. The good thing about it is that you will try to figure out what had gone wrong, and perhaps plan to avoid it in the future. This apparently seems like a good thing. The bad part is that, if you linger too much delving into the reasons of your being what you are, your self esteem might hit an all time low; and a quicker path to depression is hard to find. The key is to move on, I believe.
