Howz Life????

It was a sunny Saturday afternoon and I had been out for lunch with a friend of mine al fresco. One of my old friends pounced on me unexpectedly from no where and both of us were so happy to see each other! She, in her deep voice, asked me - “Its been such a long time dear… So, howz life??”. I stood there puzzled for a second, without any answer, for I really didn’t know wat to tell. I was at loss of words. Yet, I jus managed to throw up something tat hit my puzzled mind at tat moment.

It is such a difficult question to answer indeed! It is about L.I.F.E.!! What I answered at that moment was wat I felt at that instance. But wat about life? As said, it is pretty much an experience you gotta go through and you definitely can’t find an apt answer. Its a feeling that only u can sense. Life a journey. A concoction of all seasons. Ripples of pain n pleasure, success n failure, buffet the waters of life. So at any given instance, life is what you are going through at that very moment, how u r exactly feeling at that very minute! Right? I always wonder how much weightage that carries.

And all of us wanna feel “great” at any such given instance. A happy life is just a string of happy moments. But many of us don’t allow the happy thoughts to sink in and seep in coz we tighten our senses and are so busy trying to “get” a happy life. In the course, we jus forget to live it! Life is to Live. Phew! It is so much to the perception of the perceiver. I am jus in a state of deep thought. Puzzled, yet again![wink] But yet, for me, LIFE is to “Look ’IN’ For the Eternal”. Then, life becomes a blissful living and you shall always stay blessed to answer that question in a blissful state. Life indeed becomes a celebration, celebrating “U”. I am yet to celebrate “me” so that I can answer the question,”howz life?”. Happy Celebrations!! [smile]
