The Vicissitudes

Life is an inveterate critic, it judges how we sense. It throws sly pellets on our ground, with a boundary but no fence. -Deepanshu Tanwar

Sometimes, what happens or occurs to a person, utterly discombobulates him. Life itself has a mastery in challenging one and all. What one doesn't expect, happens and what one expects, never does or perhaps, seldomly. The unexplainable sequence of expectations and clashes with reality dejects everyone. So why do people expect even when the consequences are foreseeable? The answer would take eons of discussion. In complete juxtaposition to the intelligence of mankind, we make some mistakes consciously. Expecting is one of those mistakes and due to these expectations, we become crestfallen. The disappointment that we receive paves way for further problems.

'Vicissitudes' are the ups and downs that we face in life. These are, what religion puts forward, the result of the 'karmas' of the previous life. In addition to this, these vicissitudes are the aftermaths of the battle between expectation and reality. If expectation turns out to be victorious, the life-graph's line whisks up. If reality triumphs there's a declivity in the slope of the same graph. Expectations might give temporary pleasure till the time it is in our head and the moment doesn't approach for the clash to happen. So, it's just ephemeral which comes along with long-term harm disguised or undisguised.

Life advocates for the constant presence of these problems in our journey. They all the more strengthen us and we come to terms with reality. When life brings cheers, it's a paradise. When life brings tears, it's hell. How selfish does that sound! It's bizarre. Perhaps, no, it's something that can be undoubtedly be expected attributable to the proofs from the past and present rather surmised. But celestial managers and seraphs are so kind and selfless. They altruistically give happiness to all and sundry even after the abrupt criticism from the intelligent mortals time and again. Life has a different way of conducting itself. It is unpredictable but it fosters nothing negative but freshness in the actions of people that needs to be there. It simply depends on our way of absorbing things.

At the end of the day, late but streets ahead 'never', an uncomplicated realization is dawned upon us. It goes like this- "What happened held positivity". Now it is self-explanatory why life approves of the hurdles it lays down in our paths to desired destinations. Life endorses its vicissitudes We cannot change the battlefield but we can accept things, muster strength and march forward. We need to acknowledge things. We need to understand that the planning of our future has already taken place by the ethereal powers. what we need to do is strive and summon courage to deal with the atrocities.

We all are travellers. We all have to cross through a path which is unprecedented. We all have to find our destinations. We all need to work our fingers to the bone. We all will encounter troubles. We all are same, we all are in same situation. Yet we are different, yet in different situations.

Destiny has different plans for all and sundry.
