The Alarm of Life: Don't Snooze! :)

It takes less than a second for one to react furiously and just a few more seconds to react cordially. It takes less than a minute to say no to a beloved who wishes to spend time with you and a few more minutes to prioritize and re-work your schedule. It takes less than an hour to delegate a task to someone and just a few more hours to make them understand your requirement.

It is only when we decide patience to travel in our mind that it can reduce the time taken for anger to subside and calmness to settle. When our attitudes work on impulse, we leave little scope for some thinking to happen. It is when our so called “mood” starts to act fickle frequently that the world around us starts to get intimidated by our unpredictable reaction. Welcome then yourself to detachment and aloofness because you are distancing people from your life.

You egoistically hurray to this as you realize the progress of lesser bondage, but more than what others get from you; it is what you eventually get from all this -just more detest today toward relationships and tomorrow aggravating venom running in your mind, body and eventually soul.


A wise stranger once told me, “Keep the faith” and despite the recurrent mishaps, these three words which I once chose to outcast from my mind, continued to impact positively in every ultimate decision of my life.
