Reality Bites? Chose the way you look at it!

Yes... we all have dreams and hopes and wants and wishes. But sometimes is life is hard and has a funny way of throwing strange things our way. We think we want certain things until reality hits one day and we realise that maybe we've been off course. To try and bring things back on the right course, we have to go through hell to set things straight. Truth of the matter is, the right way is always the harder way. The wrong way is the easier way. The way one can just escape to make things momentarily better. But to look in the long run, and know that we're not doing anything wrong and not messing with the bigger picture, we need to set things right NOW. And sure as hell, setting things right IS reality and man does it bite most times. The strength one gets from their hopes and dreams can get sapped in a second from when we are going through the hell of dealing with and sorting out our current reality. But have faith in yourself, your hopes, dreams, desires and the fact that the lord above is watching. When you know you are doing the right things, nothing else matter.

Reality bites, sure as hell, you got that right! But its how we look at it and approach the situation at hand post that. Do we fight it with a smile since we know that we are on the right path? Do we fight it and get irritated and give in half way? Or do we get cynical about life in general just because we can't fathom why we have to go through this? Or we end up behaving like the people involved around us?

There are a gazillion ways to look at this! At the end of the day, the choice is ours and ours alone. I have been fortunate enough to go through some situations in my current past which have taught me a HELL OF A LOT! I've had my weak moments, believe me, at other people's expense that too! But luckily, in a short span of time, I've been smart enough to know that I need to see the larger picture. Everything one goes through is for a reason, and we need to take things head on. I can chose to be a rotten tomato about it and make my life a living emotional hell and the people involved in my life closely currently. Or, I chose to know that my wants, desires, feelings are true and pure. There is nothing that should make me question true and earnest feelings! Know and have faith that things will work out for the better and to what I want in the long run. And go on living happily and being there for the important ones in my life. Yes there will be hard and testing times... Do I chose to be cynical about it and life there after? I can, however I chose my approach.

You sure you've picked the right one? Make sure you don't give yourself too much grief. Specially when you know you're on the right path.

I was recently told, "Life and love are funny. They can take you so high and drop you on your ass as well. But hey, Loving is Living and you gotta Live!"

Enjoy every minute of it... Good, bad and ugly. I know its easier said than done... But give it a shot why dontchya! :)
