miracle

yesterday i was at my regular salon, and the girl next to me had a list of requirement from a single hair style which took her almost 10 minutes to explain. yes i am being lenient as i was under the hair steam for 15 minutes and she came in b4 i started the steam.. :p

i and my hair dresser were exchanging exasperated looks and mischievous and also bitchy smiles.. -and i told him .. da lady needs a miracle and not a hair cut... and was feeling proud of my supposedly very funny comment !!

later on my way back .. feeling at peace with the world and the bounce on my hair adding to my happiness, i started thinking.. does this analogy not hold true for all of us too..  are we all not like this girl ??

 we too make a lot of demands from  life, from god, from family. from friends, from strangers, from hair dressers !! and we feel all of it is justified and we deserve more and then when these expectations or demands are not met, inspite or without our efforts .. we feel upset, then we want more attention.. and since no one takes us as seriously as we take our self .. we are further hurt.. and there starts the vicious cycle.. some find a way out, others bury it deep and others themselves go deep into it which unfortunately ends in ending the life that was once full of hope..

with suicide rate.. road rage.. sexual harassment ..racial discrimination on an all time high and self esteem, selfless deeds, humility, humanity on an all time low, i wish this year we all take small steps to make this world a little better place to live in..

am i now being unrealistic.. time alone will tell .. oh happy new year by the way to all, sorry its belated.....
