Rollercoaster
My Dears, it has been a long time since i conversed with you all...?
Muchos apologies for this since work and life and life and work have denied me the time to spend with you which you desere.
As ever lots of activities on my side....a trip to Qatar and Abu Dhabi (pics on facebook), craziness at work (leading to a 400page report..!), some personal mourning, regained fitness, CFA II starting and lots more......but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger...? If you get through it that is.
Thus is the uniqeness of life - that everything that happens, good and bad, adds different dimensions to our character, makes us who we are and takes us down one path rather than another. The film "Sliding Doors" is a favourate for me due to its concept ; the two completely different lives a woman leads, one where she catches the train (and gets home to see her husband with another woman) and the other life when she misses the train and doesn't catch her husband.
Who knows? say if Adolf Hitler had a loving upbringing and had a certain group of friends rather than another and so on, would he have turned out the way he did? If you could travel back in time and met him say when he was 21, would you "take him out" knowing what he would end up doing? The butterfly effect.
Being able to cope with the richness, the vitality, the vivaciousness of LIFE itself can sometimes seem daunting initself. But the fact we are capable of all this, good things, bad things, to ourself, to others, is truely a sign for those who ponder.
Learn and Live.
Happy Valentines Day
Salaam.
