as life's jigsaw puzzle starts coming together, i can see how many incidents and lessons have been correlated and are leading me to things that seems predestined. i am thinking about a tattoo in my head and the teacher says, "i want you guys to tattoo this formula on your forearm". or I am in a panel discussion, gtalking a friend about staying healthy vs. smoking (he was reading an earlier blogpost) and the panel speaker says," stay healthy. stop smoking." small things like these. and then bigger things. a guy who has this smirk on his face when he criticises others (pretty much everyone else, this is a very recent bad streak he has picked up) and he injures his lower lip. such that he can't talk or smile till the stitches are taken off. or another one that takes the cake. a friend gets an internship offer and he is very happy about it. the offer is then withdrawn 3 weeks later. another month goes by. and an interview lead that went cold 3 months ago, suddenly gets activated and converts into a much better, more prestigious and exciting internship offer. big things like these.
so what do i make of it? we are all threads in an embroidery in the making. someone up there has a design in mind and all we know is the path we are taking, marked in front of us and the knots that we become when we go to the rough side. sometimes we get an idea, but for the most part, it just looks messy. the many threads we crisscross and get knotted together. but there will be a time when we will have left behind an imprint of a beautiful flower, a flowing pattern, a rainbow of colours. we just need to keep going, keep being led by that super-designer. keep our eyes open for this miracle to be fulfilled..
vaery naice, I like.
