In life we meet thousands and thousands of people.. however very few leave an impact!! An unexpected.. unplanned evening that challenged quite a lot of faiths and beliefs that had taken shape in the past 25 years of life.
From school to graduation college.. from graduation college to a short stint in corporate world and then back to post grad college.. I had evolved as a person. A lot of misconceptions had been shattered.. A lot of new beliefs established.. As a result I had accepted two facts of life and had ingrained them into my thought process.. According to first belief, I had accepted that 'No matter what.. one can't change what is destined to be.. Everything is planned' and according to second, 'Everyone gets what one actually deserves'. Until yesterday, though troubled by lot of thoughts I had established a synchronization between heart and mind.
But.. one conversation.. a conversation that has compelled me to reconsider the firmly established beliefs.. a conversation that struck a chord which was so difficult to be even touched upon.. a conversation that has taken away my slumber.. An unblemished record echoes as I try hard to question my own beliefs.. The debate over defining 'deserves' leaves me stranded..
Earthquake had struck Nepal.. but the tsunami of thoughts struck me as I sat on the marine drive trying to win over a conversation.. Though winning was never the objective but yes losing one was definitely not either..
And the best part is that losing doesn't make feel depressed.. rather invites me and reinvigorates me to once again jump into the infinite ocean of unanswered questions.. questions which are not only difficult to answer but so mind boggling that a peaceful sleep seems a distant dream till the questions are answered and the peace between mind and heart re-established!!
