‘I tried to cling on to it. The turbulent waves turning more violent than before, trying to throw me to a new world. I knew i had to leave it soon but i still kept holding on, trying to delay the ‘soon’. I knew it was inevitable but i tried my best to stay there as long as i could. It was not that i had certain hopes but there was something which wouldn’t just let me go.
Waves came and hit me making me weak day by day. May be i was waiting for a mighty one to come slaying that part of me which kept me hanging on there, pointlessly. Then, one day that wave came and struck me hard. I realized that there was no point fighting this one. It only said, “Either drown or come along.” And i came along.’
Most of you who happen to be unfortunate to have been bestowed with a clean heart face the problem of attachment and detachment. It is the detachment that i was talking about in the lines up there. It has never been easy.
We know things will take their own course in life but we continue trying to make them take ours. Its not like we think that we are God during those turbulent times. Its only that we are behaving like a kid who howls to have one ice-cream after another though he knows he won’t be allowed, lest he catch flu. We may call it the stubborn within us who just refuses to do the right thing to be done though hes very well aware of it.
But then who would you blame for all this, for giving life and energy to this stubborn within us? - the other people, the circumstances, the wrong time, life as a whole, or Him? In the end, you tend to just blame yourself.
