Seven Days

When I started exploring the biggest changes that have come across in my life, I could relate to the fact that they have been seen in the smallest of time period.. most of the time within seven days.. Here I am not talking about the material changes which might take a while to occur but intellectual changes which comes with a click.. it takes a second for a thought to strike your mind.. and its takes a minute to realize the difference.. though I am aware that life is a gradual process.. but still there are certain decisions which are taken so quickly that they change you.. they change the person u are or the person you are to be..

One day this girl was dreaming about how she would proceed in life.. What all she has to do in life after being a hotelier.. And in 2 days time she was filling form for BCA… and when she was thinking that she would make her career as a programmer she opted for Economics in just 2 hours.. and finally after many such hourly/ daily thoughts this girl is working in the finance field.. The dream of being a hotelier left somewhere much behind..

This is just one of the events in my life which kind of illustrate the above line.. This holds true for many situations where just a phone call, a small talk or 10 mins have changed life.. and these changes are forever…

A friend of mine.. She came to know about her mothers malady and in 5 days she was gone.. and her life changed.. and then some time later she came to know about her father’s medical crisis and he was gone even before 4 days changing her life once again forever… soo is this not a perfect example of what piece of time is granted to you by your life to bring about major changes in your life is really small..

But do we really assume ourselves to be ready for such changes.. do we really welcome such changes.. It is normal and human to take time to adjust to the changes which life brings about too quickly to ourselves.. but then it is a hard fact that the alteration once bought in existence cannot be reversed.. we should prepare ourselves to accept what life brings to us.. and this is the biggest challenge to fight it and win it.. one who can swim in the stream will be on the bank and the one who would yield to the tides would be drowned..
