A Life Less Travelled

Thousands of disconnected lives move on simultaneously. Every person who we pass by has such a huge story to himself...so many joys...so many sorrows...so many broken relationships...so many pleasent memories. In our own humdrum of life we forget to stop once in a while and look around us...look at the sheer diversity of people..of thoughts...of emotions. With every person we fail to notice in the walk of our life, we miss out on godknows what....perhaps a beautiful relationship...a great friend...a teacher..who knows. Sometimes it feels we have such a narrow outlook towards life...we need to open up to each other...it can only be good. It always is going to be a life less travelled..but lets atleast cover a few extra miles..never know what we may discover...:-) .

Life is not always fair

Chanced upon this letter written by a grandad to his garnd-daughter...

Dear Patricia,

Life is not always fair. Often times it has the wires crossed and blows a fuse, and gives you a shock you will never forget. If that happens to you the best you can do is to pick yourself up and put another fuse in the socket and strive for better things and a better outlook on life. When you do that you will be stronger for it and much better to cope with the game of life.

As Ever,Grandpa Jack

Well said grandpa! :-)
