a philosophical take..?

Sometimes when one reminisces about an event exactly a year later, it seems strange to note that a whole year has passed; it seems the event happened just yesterday. The year seems to have passed in a flash. And at times so much happens in a short period.. and one grows and evolves with all that happens in that short duration, that it seems like much longer.

Haven't we all felt this way at some time or the other in our lives..

Sometimes we sincerely try to do our very best to help a situation, but it only seems to grow worse despite it all. Like digging when in a hole. Sometimes, one has to look at situations from a distance, dispassionately, objectively, and one realizes that one does more harm than good by actively trying to change or improve or help something. Sometimes its healthier for all involved to be on their own two feet with their own self to take care of.

Sometimes life works out very differently from what we dream and strive for. As soon as certain goals are achieved, the meaning of everything is lost, the shared dreams are scattered, the sweetness is lost, the purpose is lost, the beauty is gone. It's like everything is there and yet something underlying doesnt let harmony prevail. Lines are crossed. Differences become exaggerated. There is no agreement on nothing! And one wonders what all the earlier strife for togetherness was for.. But like someone wise who surely thought from the heart said, its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.. No complaints there.
