When the tide turns...

You know, sometimes I tend to agree with the generally held belief that it is a small spark that starts a forest fire.
Actually, I wouldn't stop with a forest fire. I'd go as far as rejuvenation.
But when you are pathetically down and out, a little, unexpected, unadulterated expression of joie de vivre livens you up. If you know what I mean. You might, if you have ever felt LIFE speaking to you. Out of the blue. Not like a bolt, more like a blessing.
That's when you realise what you had forgotten: The Force is always with you!
I've had my blessing today. And I'm willing to be yours: May the Force be with you!

Hi Ramya,

I fully understand and appreciate as I have experienced the same many a times. It is a inexplicably refreshing experience.

And the satisfaction of being a vehicle of blessing to another person is all the more blissful.

Thanks! Take care. Hard to believe you being "pathetically down & out" though!

hari,

i guess all of us go through something like that once in a while. some of us probably seamlessly move on to happiness... some of us, like me, make such a song and dance of it! :) but then, that's what a blog's for!

cheers!

Hi Ramya,

Even I would like share many such feelings in my blog, but the difficult part is that I am not half as good as you in putting it up in a soft, subtle and precise manner.

Do continue sharing your good and bad times. We, your blogfriends are always here to share your good as well as bad times and may be, be a blessing to you, if God is so generous to us.

Out of topic, but aren't the highs and lows that make life so wonderful? Treating them alike is difficult and that is exactly what I'm trying to do :).. Sorry that I'm not making much sense, but do let me know if I do make sense. (That would be a pleasant surprise indeed - the making sense part that is!)

There are certain feelings which have no reasons attached , certain days when your gloomy, you have no one to blame , you have everything yet you feel deprived .In thoose days you need a spark to get you back to life ..
