A box of chocolates

There are some moments which half dare-half invite. You know what's in store for you and though you want it somewhere, u deny. There comes a wave which wants to sweep you away. You can either hold on or go with the flow. Life calls out for you, it demands that one bit of courage and faith to jump out of the window without caring about the consequences. You want to be strong, at least feel strong or at least pretend to be strong. One moment you are sure, one moment unsure. You dont accept that you are unsure, pretence prevails. Or maybe its not pretence but a cocoon you don't want to come out of. You want to live in a make-believe world of happiness, not knowing that once you spin the cocoon, you will be flying out in beautiful colours. You don't want to break the norm, the convention. Its convenient, its comfortable. But didn't you hate being convenient? No, Its just simple. Simplicity attracts. The moment you think that things are in control, they go out of control, or so you think. And then you get ready for the dare. You lose, but somewhere you win. Your plans fall out of place, actually they now begin to fall into place. One moment of intoxication,intoxicated with an old friendship, a long-lost love, of having that courage to step out of your cocoon, of jumping out of the window, of not knowing what you are upto. What life is upto. One moment that changes your life. Perhaps some life-changing moments, some long-lost hopes. Life is strange. God has his own plans that you possibly can't mess with. Plans that don't sink in very easily. Indeed, "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you get." .
