Life

Life is basically a number of often non related events that come together and start making bit of sense.

Therefore it is foolish to give too much importance to one single event that takes place, the "one thing" that changes your life because you can only know about it in hindsight but never in the present. Life and destiny make interesting companions, if life is a sequence of what appears to be mostly random events but which suddenly make sense after a while, then isn't that what destiny really is - the thing that connects all of these events?

The luxury of hindsight in life is often a beautiful venom. The venom that can make everything in life appear so magical and clear yet never really helping when needed in the present. It is therefore important to not plan too much about what is going to happen (usually life doesn't really unfold the way you imagine it to be) but remain focused in the present because what you do right now can and will influence the supposed future whenever it arrives.

Another wonderful and equally funny aspect about life is worry. A state of worry usually involves perceived scenarios of what may happen or not but you can bet on one thing for sure - worrying robs precious minutes from the game of life and diverts one's natural abilities to other things namely fear and nervousness both of which only need to be present in the smallest amount possible, never a drop more. A bit of worry acts like a coach who drives you harder to be your best but it is important to never give total control to this coach.

Finally the zen saying of "Things appear as we are and not as they are" rings true in every sense when you see life as only a series of events that look often chaotic but with a definite pattern when looked upon in hindsight. If life consists of way we see events and how they affect us, is it not possible to change ourselves so that life too changes accordingly?

Peace.
