Uncertainties...

Has it ever been that you definitely knew what to do in a particular situation? Has it ever been that you’ve not given something a second thought? 

Life is full of confusions. Every situation is like a multiple choice question; sometimes options are difficult to understand and/or choose from, sometimes questions are difficult to understand and the rest of the times you tend to randomly choose the answers of your multiple choice questions. 

Options become difficult when the loss of other alternatives is immense, if one alternative is chosen. Questions become difficult to comprehend when you’re stuck between your heart and mind. Answers are randomly chosen when you have passed the stage of fearing the consequences of choosing a wrong answer. 

At times life gives us ample amount of time to solve these riddles and at times time terminates in a fraction of seconds. But is it fair? 

When life gives us a lot of time to sort out problems, we tend to flow away with thoughts and emotions. And when we have too little time to decide, we are prone to take wrong decisions without thinking properly. However, exceptions to these situations exists. 

Sometimes these complexities are for time being and sometimes for too long. And sometimes even if they are supposed to be short we unknowingly lengthen them, also if they are too long, for our comfort we try to cease them quickly. 

These are all phases of life. They come, some stay some don’t. They say confusion is good, it’s an excellent place to learn from. Is it though? It breaks some people apart. And healing is, of course, all together another difficult phase to think about. 

After all of this, someday everything starts making complete sense. But on that day, you cannot go back and correct your wrong answers neither can you celebrate the success for the right answers. All you can do is sit back and laugh at yourself because now you’ve learnt from you mistakes and grown from your mistakes. 

Uncertainties are parts of life, they are phases and they are supposed to be chapters only, don’t make them stories. Even if confusion is the first step towards clarity, it doesn’t make sense that you keep yourself in doubts unnecessarily.
