Such is life...

Moving from one exhaust pipe to the next
From Before Sunrise to Before Sunset
A plain old job to a plain new one
From a look to a look-alike
A muse to a new one
From a weed to a withered flower
A spectacular moment to a mundane one
From an uncomfortable silence to unspeakable truths
A mockery to bewilderment
From a classical song to a popular number
A grave to a cradle
From a cliché to a newer one
A ‘before’ to ‘after’…

From being a dad to becoming a father

From seeking to knowing
Such is life… Just like Ani says.

From dawn to dusk...day in ...day out...from the cradle to the grave....walking till we stop...and we say such is life. True. What about life? We need to realize that life is the most patient teacher for we would be presented with the same experience over and over until we learn the best way to deal with the situation. This is not cruelty but nature's way of showing love....for life is love.
