Leaves fall...

What mattered yesterday doesn't matter today. Haven’t you ever laughed remembering those scolding from parents or teachers that seemed like the end of the world then? Well, I have. Those arguments with friends, fights with siblings, breaking of favorite toy, and many such issues that brought tears; doesn't it make us smile now?

Then grave issues from breaking of toy to breaking of heart, breaking of trust, breaking of precious friendships and many other things, everything that seemed so difficult then doesn't matter now.

I wonder then, what matters today may not matter tomorrow. Someday, we may simply smile at the issues that make us cry today. After all, what is going to last forever? Nothing and nobody; joy, pain, you, me, its all going to end. So why worry over temporary issues? Anger, regret, worries, it all will pass. Hadn’t it last time? But then, it ended after ending the charm or the day, or week, or month or sometimes even longer. By the time we are free from one unnecessary worry we are often gripped by other and then other and the chain goes on. How soon can we let go the negativity makes all the difference in the life we live. The day will end at its own pace but the negativity can end at our will. The sooner the better.

So taking a lesson I promise myself I won’t let that unnecessary anger or worry be a spoiler next time. And I wish the same for you. I wish you countless beautiful & carefree todays that make your life.
