moving ahead in life

"Change is the only constant thing". Change, it's inevitable and no matter how much we hate changes, changes don't seem to leave us alone. Change, time changes, trend changes, everything changes and we too change. Journeying through the various paths of life is so full of events and changes. When I look back at life today, the only thing that comes to my mind is how many changes I have had to go through. And its not only me, it is with everybody and we manage to accept most of the changes, no matter how good or bad they are. But there are some changes that leave behind so many memories and it actually becomes so difficult to forget those days when the change had not taken place. There are so many people we know at one point of time and probably in the next moment, the people are all gone. There is nothing left, we don't even know whether we would get another chance of meeting those people. My friends say that each person, who comes into our lives, comes for some purpose and when the purpose is solved, they leave us. Is this the reason why that we make friends, we gel with them, we feel that yes they are the people, who constitute our world?

Why is change such a necessity and why do we have to move ahead in life by leaving all the people and the old circumstances behind us? I can bet that it is not easy to do that but since we are not left with any other option, we consciously accept it but somewhere, like today, it is coming out of me, it comes out of each one of us. Even we are happy but there are some aspects and some people, who we wish were still with us to have let us be with them. Well, I wish that life would not have meant to move ahead without the people we really want to be with, rather being with them would have made the journey even better. Life is about saying in your mind to someone "I MISS YOU, WISH YOU WERE WITH ME".

lized that this is probably one thing that every person can relate to. Though i have the ability to adapt these changes very easily but still most of the times im rather compelled to do so. I accept the fact that mostly it is for our own good but still can never estimate the requirement of it. However, im superbly satisfied and glad to know that im not the only rover who has to face this. Finally, i gained some relief for the day.

None of us still happen to be the naive teenage girls giggling for everything and believeing that the world is the perfect place... I wish i could go back to those days..over the years I have learnt lessons - lessons that i have accepted,learnt and the moved on!!!
even i believe people come in our life for a reason.. there is another thing which i believe - Every relationship comes with an expiry date otherwise what can explain losing conact with friends for no reason.. having said this , I also live with the belief that the people you have lost out in the course of life do come back - maybe not in the same way you knew them at one point of time but nevertheless, they are there - many of my friends whom I had lost in touch with, i have come across them again. We aren't the best of friends but thats ok.. People Change and so have I...
Just one thing though arpita,I feel Life is about telling to someone out loud, "I MISS YOU, WISH YOU WERE WITH ME"

Arpita,this post touched my heart somewhere deep inside. But i believe that people, who come into our life with any purpose, never deserve to be a part of our precious memories. Therefore, move ahead and let them realize that they were wrong coz
" change is the only constant and hanging on is the only sin"

we have no control over our lives except for our attitude towards it.

Change is the sign of life. Only dead things does not change, neither do dead people. If something in you life changes, it means that you are moving

Though not all changes are what we ideally expect them to be but then if we get all that we want, where is the struggle. And smooth sailing is only as good as a stand still. No change, No life.

It really touched me inside.....

Yes, it is true that people usually comes in your life with some intentions, however these intentions are not set by them, but are situation generated. You enjoy that beautiful time, generated by 'situation'. But with the time, situations changes and that does affect your relations, as during that former 'intimated' time u may have had achieved a high level of closeness/intimacy which is now not maintainable, and at the other hand you don't get satisfied with anything less than that of once-achieved-peak-intimacy. And thus the relation becomes tough to manage and gradually goes in the state which is even worse than that of between two strangers !! Also, the emotional quotient of two persons may not be same, but in that 'intimated' time it becomes nearly equal because both the persons being in an infutuated state. But After that 'situation' is gone the low emotional person gets into his/her normal state and is not able to sustain that intimacy, but the more emotional one always expects the things and behaviour to be like the same; as he being still there in 'that' time.

A practical solution to this problem, for more emotional people, could be : Untill and unless you are commited in the relation, dissallow anyone to enter in your life deeply so that it would not create a big void after they go away .....

perfect timings...i was just thinking rather looking for a good reason why people leave us,for some good or they just had a bad dream saying -..time to go buddy-LEAVE this relation...i mean why people come to leave us..anyways i think the most important thing in life is to get a good feeling/good vibes/good tuning to each other everything else is just ELSE....and will always remain else...relation for me would be something i can make or have at any point of life...i can love/hate at any point of life whenever with whome-so-ever i can or i want to,but the main thing is do i feel for that person,does that person or thing really making me feel for it...so guys this is what i feel about these two fake yet meaningful words FEELINGS O RELATION..rest you have to decide urself..better start loving the one who loves you and better expressing to your loved ones that how much he/she mean to you..god bless you all and to loved ones..PRATIBHA PAHWA
