Premonition

Premonition of something big dying to happen trying to happen.. ignoring not going to work anymore confrontations finally need to be done... but isn't change supposed to be gradual? not if you refuse to acknowledge things i guess, not if you stash them up in the cupboard at the back of your mind... One day it is ought to burst, and burst with full force.. bidding the old good-bye is always tough, but i guess the time has come.. its again a now-or-never situation (one of the many that i have been seeing lately) change now or be a disaster... A new end... A new beginning...

Why take the road less travelled?

Time and again lines by Robert Frost fall on my ears 'I took the road less travelled, and that has made all the difference'. Well, i wonder how much courage will one really need to take up a road less travelled. There will be demons all along the path, all the time misleading you, discouraging you. Time and again your path will cross with the one which has been tread by millions and you will be tempted to get onto it.. Self-doubt will grip u time and again.. At times the path will even lead you to dead end.. and here you will need courage to turn around, and say to yourself, "alright, so this is surely not the way that leads me to my mecca" and start all over again. you will trip many a times, and trip you will more than you would have on the other road, and there will be no one to pick you up and brush your knees.. but yes, you may rest assured that if you trip, there will not be people taking advantage of it.. So well there are a few positives afterall.. but very few indeed. So wat would tempt a person to take this road? When he will travel on this road, he will have the freedom to sit and enjoy the view at times. He will not have to constantly worry on what fellow travelers are upto! on this path,there will not be any established rules and so it will be he who will write the rules. On this road, there will have been lesser heroes to burden him.. On this road, there will be unspoilt, untouched beauty.. beauty no one has ever witnessed.. On this road you will be alone, alone enough to hear the voice of your God. On this road, you will be as close to Him as you could ever be.. and this road will lead you to your Mecca, sooner or later.. This road will make all the difference afterall..
