A close friend of mine is getting engaged and then getting married in a couple of months. I am so happy for him that his life is going to the next stage and into a new dimension of responsibility and love. But at the same time, there was a slight pinch. That I am still single. Long ago, I had given up my hopes and handed over the reigns to my parents – “find me a girl and I will love the crap out of her”.
Its not jealousy. Its just a sudden reminder that your close friend got what you want, a bit sooner than you did. It made me wonder or rather ponder on a particular train of thought.
Why does everything have to have a pro and a con? I know its to maintain balance in Nature, to maintain the equilibrium. I also know the theory about the necessity of paradoxes to enjoy life. But every once in a while, in situations like this, it makes you ponder why does it have to be so! Even though you know the answer to your question. It just feels better to put the question out and what better place to put it than in this infinitely ever expanding cyberspace.
I guess I have to focus on the answer. That I have to sit through it and accept both the sides of the coin. All I can do now is focus more on the positive energies from this event that my close friend is moving on, rather than me moping around in the dark with a ridiculous question. However, on the bright side, fate will turn in my favour. Its just a matter of time ...
Indeed..just a matter of time.
