A few days back, I had an epiphany. We are all struggling with ‘today’, its worries and anxieties and pains. But the moment that ‘today’ becomes ‘yesterday’, replaced by another ‘today’, the original ‘today’ doesn’t seem half as horrid as the new one.
Am I making sense?
Well, in case you are actually getting what I am trying to say you will get the import of my words. Even if I just talk about myself, around 3-4 years back, I thought that I was stuck in a rut. Nothing was going right, I was in pain and struggling to get by. When I look back, I realise that compared to the anxieties and worries and struggles of today, that was a cakewalk.
Somehow, I think, five years from now, this phase would seem like a cakewalk.
The bottomline is this: Live and laugh. Don’t worry about what’s going to happen. Worrying about it won’t make it stop. It would only mean you miss out on that stunning sunshine, the calming rain, the unguarded laughter and the spring in your step.
Hmm. Enjoy today and don’t worry, coz the future worries may be even more complicated than that of today. That’s a new way to look at things. Interesting.

At least that’s what I have sort of observed…. it could as well be the other way round.. who knows? π

Quite true, of course. It could be. π
I usually look at it the other way. The future may hold brighter things, so why worry about what worries I had a minute back?
But when in a serious mood-off phase, I guess one does think the future has more worries. Depends on the situation perhaps.

Nice perspective! but, sometimes, we can’t help but worry about the present situation. We feel as if that is the most important thing at present.
