How many times in our lives have we questioned “why?”. “Why is this happening to me?”
“Why do I end up being hurt?”
“Why am I such a loser?”
“Why can’t he be mine?” “Why can’t people understand my feelings?”
With me, it was quite a number of times. Then I decided to do something extremely simple. I changed the "Why?" to "Why not?"
Tears? Why not? They will just make my vision clearer.
Heartbreaks? Why not? There will also be someone to mend it.
Failures, why not? They will just make the victory sweeter.
And all of a sudden, the misted veil over life, complications, began to fade away..revealing the beautiful light beneath it. The smug look on the face of life quickly changed into a grin. I smiled at life and it smiled back at me.
Life wasn't a play of mere blobs anymore.. it was a beautiful abstract painting. The pieces of the jigsaw puzzle started to fall into place and slowly, the picture made sense. Funnily enough, the "why not?"s provided many more answers than the "why?"s. The answers seemed to connect together and form a plan, life. I was a mere dot in the world, just like a twinkling star in the vast sky, but I was here for a reason . I had a purpose of existence. I was a part of the bigger plan called Humanity. I was here to follow my dreams, follow my heart, connect the dots and the lives of people. I wouldn't be born without my mother. My mother wouldn't be born without me.
I am a daughter, a sister , a friend, a lover, an example, an identity, a being , a warrior, a twinkling star ; a part of the master plan.
