One withers, another grows.

"All the people you meet here have one thing to teach you." Eddie was skeptical. His fists stayed clenched. "What?" he said. "That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind."

There are so many things that happen in life and you at that moment do not realize why they happened. What was the reason? What was God's plan? But when you look back, you realize "yes, this is the reason!" Each choice you make just weaves your life. Ever thought what would have happened if you had chosen the other thing. How things would have been? Where you would have been? Certainly not the same place you are at, right now.

Each decision I have taken, each choice I have made till now has woven my life. Choices as small as choosing one question over another in an exam. These choices might look insignificant, but now seeing in hindsight I realize how important they were!! Choosing friends, breaking up with friends, every decision has shown me that my present life is my doing and I am happy the way things are at present.

There are choices I made, choices as small as not speaking up for what right for me, choices of not standing up for myself, choices of not fighting back, choices of giving up. But there have also been choices of asking questions, choices of how to answer some questions, choices of speaking up at the right moment. Some choice I made, might have been wrong. But over all, it's only because of the wrong choice that I learnt how to make the right ones. Now, I have come to believe that life is always a happy ending. And if the ending is not happy, then it not the end. (picture abhi baaki hai mere dost)

One withers, another grows.

-- I had a dream that I couldn't fulfill. But dreams like people, come and go. If you are not able to fulfill one dream another dream takes it place. And, until that new dream is fulfilled, the failure of the first dream haunts you. Maybe my desire to be where I always wanted to be, wasn't as strong as those who made it there. But now there is no looking back, I am going where I truly deserve to be.  

The initial quotes are from one of my favorite book "five people you meet in heaven" by Mitch Albom. I read this book when I was in one of the bad phases of my life. And this book gave me the courage to fight and learn the reason of my existence.
