iNTROSPECTIVE…

Life is never like an F1 race where the track is smooth and each and every turn and curve is well defined. It’s more like a mountain terrain rally. You never know where there may be a valley, a dip, or just some random rough road. It’s rare to find a smooth surface to drive on. And that’s the reason you have to keep “Your Vehicle” well tuned and wired tight.

We are almost always cribbing about the problems in our lives. About how much we suffer and have to go through. About how cruel this life is; how unconcerned and selfish the people around us are; how inconsiderate our friends are towards us. We always consider our problems to be more than anyone else’s; we feel that we are going through a lot more than anyone has ever had to go through. I don’t blame anyone for that. I fall in the same category (Unfortunately). It is the inherent human nature.

We will never really understand the actual weight of our problems till we see it from another’s point of view. It is very easy to speak and write about looking at things from someone else’s eyes…. But it’s not very easy.

Movies like “In Her Shoes” and “Freaky Friday” show in a very simple way how difficult living somebody else’s life can be. The point is not understanding somebody else’s problems (trust me, till you are in their place, you never will), the point is getting a better understanding of the magnitude of your own problems.

Things are not always the way they seem… Their lives may not always be as easy as it looks…
