The best laid plans......

The future is unwritten; Destiny is not absolute, coming to think of it, it seems to be a set of possibilities like perhaps in a mathematical formula... It is of course prudent to plan, forsee, anticipate, and set goals for the future but even the best laid plans cannot forsee it in all its splendour and details... This is maybe what makes us get up every single morning, knowing that even if the day ahead could be the usual routine, we never know what the mundane day brings with it!!! The perks of the unforseen....
The next time someone says " I LOVE to travel" do not roll your eyes even if it sounds like a rwell known cliché..... I know I will not!!!! Travel brings such richeness that it leaves its impressions in you forver! It's first of all a feast for all your senses. The visuals that leave you mezmerised, the smells that tell you that you really are in another place, the weather that constantly envelopes you, the sounds that play a whole other tune, the exotic food that surprises you and above all the people that you meet make it all a grand spectacle. The more people you meet, the more minds you explore, their ideas, their passions, desires, happiness and sorrow puts your own into perspective. The conversations, be it pleasant or otherwise enriches and always leaves you craving for more!!!
..... The Indian philosophy of renouncing desires seemed a bit brutal, a life time's work to achieve, of course, but its rather practical really because when you expect , for example a little joy, you are dissapointed when you do not get it but when you expect nothing and the joy comes along it seems much more precious than it is. If nothing happens, you were not expecting anything anyway ...so.....
Here is wishing everyone a lot of joy and love,
Cheers!
