Does life always give you second chances? Chances that flood your senses, beyond logic and everything else? And do we actually have a shot at those second chances?
Sitting on my bed with soft hum of the music in the backdrop, chai on the side, twitter in one tab and news in another, this feels home. Is it true then after all? Can we redeem ourselves? From desperate writer’s blocks, emotional upheavals and dejected times to rekindle what heart suddenly feels was lost forever. Yourself.
Last few months have been something else. Like they were borrowed time on some body else’s parole. And the past few weeks have sniffed out the final bits of the sanity left. Is it true after all then? Does Alice always have to swim in her own pool of tears to reach wonderland? And did anyone ask the good ol’ Alice if she even wanted wonderland?
But this was never Alice’s call, was it? She was a victim of chance, fate, destiny or power of a higher nature. Whether she really did have her heart set on wonderland, no one could ever know. But she fell through.
Life is like this wonderland. We presume we know it all. We understand we can control it. But pop comes a hole and a rabbit and off we go on a different ride.
Tonight I ask, is wonderland truly a drop in the pool? Can no good come off well thought through actions? Or perhaps chaos has its ways to find clarity and clarity its ways to chaos?
Sometimes, it’s not really our fault and we are victim of circumstances. Belief is the most abused word, at times and I do believe that hope is what makes us strong. Sometimes, the aha moment may just crop up unexpectedly. Right now, I am angry with the ways of life. But, going with the flow!
We all have similar thoughts..
Time answers few questions and others get suppressed..
We are all victims of circumstances , at times a tad more than we would like… Sometimes the choice is not really in our hands…They say that is what life taking over is called..
Dear Richa
Good Morning! First of all, I’d like to appreciate your thought-provoking post. The questions you raised here are very genuine & legitimate. I, too, write on topics like these. In fact, I have answered some of these in my posts. The rest I’d like to give but this comment section seems to be small for those. It would be better to write a complete post on it with a link to your post. I’d like to have your opinion on this cross platform conversation.
Have a nice day!
liked it 🙂
Very well pursued !
Circumstances, mood everything makes a difference. Sometimes in the midst of chaos, suddenly everything would seem to fit in. And sometimes even when things are under control, it might be spinning away. There are a lot of factors. But the most important is what we make of it 🙂
