Taking the first step





Life is not always about moving out, but its also majorly about analysing the steps we take. To sow a seed we should first know what we want as an outcome.

However, many of us walk like the wind which doesnt understand where it wants to go. Its like getting into a train which can end up at any terminus. Unless we introspect and understand our existence we behave like a drop of rain falling on earth which doesnt know where it wants to land. However, while dropping the other powerful forces like wind, thunder, gravity might set the course for the drop if it doesnt. Do we want to live life on self decision or what?

Agreed that sometime circumstances demand an out of way kind of step. However, a better individual decides the net step even then. Its like planning for the next match. Though the bad weather ruled out one day we shouldnt or rather we cant afford to stop planning for further matches. If one day gets cancelled enjoy the day anyways, however get your charts drawn, weigh your options and understand what you want from the next match. Every match is a new match and we need to be ready for the best planing for the worst.

Journey needs to start with one single step but once started it needs to carry on no matter what hurdles come in. May be your swollen feet will get tired and you wont be able to walk the rough terrain, take some rest and then move on coz thats what the journey is for. It teaches us a lot. Learn every lesson it teaches you, gather the flowers and stories on the way but dont forget to take the First step after every stop. Sing the song the road has to offer and sing the rhythm till you reach the goal.
