That Moment...

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...
