Life has no end until you stop
living it. It is a wonderful mixture of flavors in certain proportions,
although they vary from each individual. Its value is always immense until you
get the right time to understand it. Most of the people have that right time as
the time just a few moments before they are going to stop their life journey.
And that moment is such a pity; he understands it very well that nobody else
does. And he gets to know that all the life that he had lead is a very
beautiful, irrespective of ups and downs, happy and sorrowful moments, good and
bad moments he had been through. Some realize this very well in advance that
helps them stay calm even in uncertain situations.
I have seen a wonderful quote
very recently.
“Life is not measured by the no.
of breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away”
It need not be an adventure, need
not be a risk been faced, need not be a dangerous situation you have been
through. Even a heart-felt instant that can give you immense satisfaction. It
can be helping the needy, saving the
deserved, rescuing someone from hard times, etc. One such moment is
pretty enough for a lifetime.
My dear readers, I understand you
might be thinking why I was writing all these, scrap for a few readers though. That
moment had its way through my
timeline one fine day; can say well in advance. That day I was crossing one of
the rush roads in Hyderabad. I was like very happy as I was going to reach my
sweet home in next few hours after pretty long time. It is a T-junction where a
very small partition was made at extreme left of the road to make free way for
vehicles that go straight their way. The partition was made by small cement
bricks in a midst of the whole road; even a small kid can cross the blocks with
ease. I was about to reach that divider. I lifted my right foot so as to land
it on the other side of the divider. There was a cable running along the
divider. I observed it whilst and tried to put my foot a bit far so as to keep
myself unhurt. But, misfortune held my hand and my footwear stuck by the cable.
Within a moment of time I had hit the ground hard uncontrollably, as I had a
back-pack and a luggage bag in one of my hands. Luckily, my head was left unhurt.
I could see a local transport rushing towards my head. I sensed something was
going to be wrong and I was in a shock such that even my mind did not produce
any reflex to escape. Only thing that was running in my mind was that moment. Yes, that moment, many things flashed
my mind, in fact the fastest rewind I had ever seen. Had a few heart-felt
moments although, but still unsatisfied ambitious mind. My breath was held,
eyes were wide open out of shock, heart is saying me that this could me be my
last moment. Mind is running multiple shows about many things; many people
especially my very own family, few of my best buddies, rammed down
relationships and my very own responsibilities. Still, surprisingly I could
find no fear in my head, might be my bad.
In no time, the approaching Tyre
of the vehicle stopped just a meter ahead of me. If the driver was not kind
enough in applying the brakes, now I would not have a chance to write down all this
now. I managed to raise myself up and found the thumb of my right leg got
severely hurt that, the nail sprung half up. I crossed the remaining road
dragging my baggage along with me. Lucky
me. Although, it was bleeding uncontrollably, I was lost in thoughts about
that moment.
Life is too short to be angry.
Stop crying for the things that you do not possess. Be happy with the precious
LIFE that you have. Utilize the present to the fullest.
Forget and Forgive.
Live and Let LIVE..
Try to capture the breathe taking
moments as much as you can...
