Heartbreak
It has been ages since i blogged. Blame that on...myself.
It is always, later. Except that later meant- when i am done with all other priorities- more like, forever. I promised myself that i will resume blogging once back from the vacation. But then, i am queen of procastrination. And just when i have time to blog, there have been some developments at homefront. Some testing times for the family.
The vacation story will have to wait a bit longer.
God has a way of subtly telling us that life isn't all ha ha he he....he gives you pleasure on one hand, and agony on the other. Take both and live with it.
Someone close to me, someone i am very fond of, is going through a crisis that is life altering , hers and everyone around hers. On one hand, she has been gifted with a precious gift, and on the other, she sees her life balanced by a thread. To her, her life as she knows has altered, the coming months will define her life for the rest of years to live.
At times like this, when nothing is under our control, what does one do?
Accentuate the happiness and mask the grief?
Tone down the happiness and let the grief tide over?
Being party to both her happiness and sorrow,the lines between them blur at times.
At times, my thoughts go astray...tomorrow may be my turn.
Will i stay strong and make my destiny or will i give in and let my fate take over like an ivy?
What do i advice her?
To pray and expect a miracle?
To be strong enough to know that a miracle may not happen?
To be prepared for whatever life brings her?
I am here, miles away from her, praying for a miracle, hoping she has the strength to know a miracle may not happen, and praying that no one goes through what she is experiencing now.
To S: Always the fighter, always the one who benchmarked your life against someone better. The one who pushed against all the barriers. You are braver than you think.
Things will get better. I just know. You deserve it.
Love,
A

Same thought engulfs me on atleast a fortnightly basis. What if that worst happens..what if the most loved ones leave this world making you all alone ? I imagine those and then let the thoughts passby... may be thats my way of being prepared for any eventuality.. its scary, but gives a protective confidence...but is the life worth thereafter ? may be...may be not.
Hugs. And wishes for strength for your friend.
Leo:We think about eventuality,but nothing prepares us for the brutaliy when it hits.Sometimes we learn to live expecting the worst and take every achievement as a gift.
As you said...maybe, maybe not.
Starry: Thank you.Staying strong for now.
Hope things turn out well. Good luck.
you take care, in love.
I pray that your friend receives her miracle.
