Oh God! Choices

It was a normal Sunday morning. I lay on my bed, my eyes partly open, staring at the wall clock as it tick-tick-tacked from 8.30 to 8.35......8.37......8.45......8.50 and so on... Constantly battling through thoughts, "let me catch on my badly-missed-during-exams sleep or maybe I should get up and help my mom with the dusting, wait! What about my plans of getting on this daily exercise routine everyday forever!" Damn! I pushed my lazy self out of the bed. I went to the balcony, the weather is cool today. I was just staring at the cars passing by when mummy comes, 'beta, coffee or tea?' Oh god! I pity my little self. CHOICES. How much I hate them. Be it any kind. From deciding what career option to choose to what to wear to a party, from deciding on whether its 'love, friendship, infatuation' to what to order at a restaurant! Life for me would have been so easier had i been under some sort of dictatorship, with fixed definite things to do. It would just have been so easier.


But is it just me? In such moments, I normally dive myself deep into such questions. Very often our ever-racing-fast-paced-life, with a sudden jerk, comes to a halt. Mostly on our life path, we are left at a T-point, the only difference being we can't return back, and due to time constraints neither can we rewind or replay! I have usually never had a love-hate relationship with such junctions, it has been all a hate-hate one. We make a CHOICE. Which sometimes, is regarding little things but other times have the power to affect us deep and BAM! Our lives change forever. And its tough. Tough because all you can exercise control is on the start, you never know what the trail holds. You can anticipate, but your expectations might not be realised, and in my case - Never. And it is not just for bad. I must add, many times the decisions we make take us by surprise. Many times they bring out the best in us and many a times they are the best for us. Maybe its difficult, but eventually we all sail through. Sometimes, we may make mistakes and learn the hard way. But that's how life is. A gamble. Also, the so-called wrong roads make us learn more about it.

So guess what? Let us be proud of our CHOICES. One wrong career choice might just lead us to understand what we actually seek from life. Wear that dress with full confidence, you might have never looked prettier or even if you don't, won't make much difference, right! Don't worry, wrong choices in love might just lead to your Prince Charming! :P And what food to order? Hahhahaha!! Is food ever bad?


As I smile to myself, there is a pat on my back. My mom hands me a cup of coffee. I was about to sip, meanwhile my brother and sister come to me with this," He wants to watch Avengers, she Piku , and and and.....they are here with an expectation that I'll be the Tie Breaker! Damn CHOICES.


As they say "enjoy life with a pinch of salt, slice of lime and a shot of tequila". I'll sip my coffee then, Cheers to life!! :D
