Re: Equation of Life
My life has so far been a pretty joyride, a few ups and downs included and I believe myself to be one of the fortunate few to have happiness outweighing life's negativities in huge number..
But if there's something that's bothering me so much so as to count myself amongst the poorest of the poors, miserable and worthless creatures on this planet then it's my disobediency towards my Creator's command to pray five times a day..And another being my jobless life. Not exaggerating, I have been a consecutive topper at college and have won prizes galore, used to be the one looked up by many and cared by the teachers, Principal-- everybody thought I would create a niche for myself in this world but alas, I'm the one lagging far behind my peers , not utilizing my "talent" because girls in our family do not work and this "ameer baap ki akloti beti" tag has burdened me enough to let my dreams and age fizzle away in the darkness of anonymity!
Sometimes I wish God didn't bless me with all those accolades, had made me like those average college going kids but nevertheless, I feel great joy when I turn back and dwell in those memories ! No regrets, no pain... Life's good, and so am I!
