My Life....My Decisions....

"If my life is a mess, I will be the one who will clean it up...and i wont lie in it'' - words of Scarlett' O'Hara in the book Gone With The Wind...I remember reading this book a long time back and the first thing that comes to my mind when i think of it are these lines.May be because it's something that many of us tend to forget when we find ourselves in situations that aren't of our choice.
                                                                       Life plays by its own rules and things may not always work out the way we want..The importance lies in how we deal with it..Do we blame our destiny and embrace the current situation with a heavy heart & an ever repenting soul ?or do we finally realize that while we may not be the masters of everything happening around us ,the decision to embrace happiness with an open heart wholly resides within us...And the first step towards this is to accept the situations that cannot be changed  and then do your best to improve it or  make a new beginning from the ashes; rather than living with the problem and nurturing them within you...And in most of the cases you would see that the problem might not be as big as it seems to you and an open talk with your dear one would be all that is needed to restore your happy self...
                                                           And if u ask me what  i do when I am in a mess?? well i have my own 100 percent successfully-tested and proved technique for problem(or disaster.. :) ) management : ie giving my best friend a call and bugging her no matter where ever she is and spilling my heart out..:)...And the added  benefits of following this madness apart from getting over with the mess that you are in includes :
(1). You would get one more loyal partner to curse your situation (or the person behind it :P  ).which in itself  is a huge preliminary stress buster ;)
(2) You actually get to know that there is somebody who cares and will stand by you no matter what and in whatsoever mess you are in. -  something that makes you realize that you are loved and your happiness is no more yours alone, it means the world to the ones who love you! And once you remember this , you know that you aren't alone in the fight ..you have it in you to face whatever uncertainties and situations that come your way and your best comrade is just a call away..;)
