If you miss a bus – - – !
Being an introvert person, any thing bad to me could easily push me deep down in the ocean of pessimistic thoughts that lead to deep depression. Even if one of my friends don’t talk to me for a day for any reason, thoughts of loosing him/her for ever start hovering around my mind. I easily start cursing myself for mistakes I might have committed in recent or distant past.
But because of I am a good thinker, I also can find the exact reason for the things taking place around me and fortunately I get the answers for my unnecessary depression. I realized that I was thinking that only I am responsible for everything but the reality is that even a single event in one’s life is constituted by many other events that do involve many other people. Not just constitution but consequences also have a wide effect.
If a particular thing happens to me, its associated activities will have a wide effect. For example if you miss a bus, you will take a taxi to reach the destination. Now the money that you paid to taxi driver could have been given to bus conductor had you been on time but as you were late, you paid an added amount to taxi driver. That driver perhaps would use that money for his saving, loan repayment or at any other stuff. Your taking taxi is not a regular activity but as your money was destined to be driver’s, you initially got up late or some thing other than normal course of life took place to make you late so that you could pay to taxi driver and not bus conductor.
With this example and all discussion, I don’t mean that one should be pessimistic and depend entirely on destiny but in your life if any thing gets wrong inspite of your correct and hard work, you should not blame any one or your self, because all this is done for the happening of some thing else that has a priority over yours. So any thing wrong from your perspective is right and much needed from others’ perspective. Hope you manage to restore your smile, even if you miss your bus next time.
