Pinned Up close to the heart!

May be that day i got up from the other side of my bed, or was it because i was determined to change the way i look at things. Red signal at the cross junction meant more time to observe the fast moving world! and not a waste of time.. presentation at the college didn't go that well as expected, may be it did but i wanted it to be better and next time thrive for more. Luck was not on my side the entire day, may be it was to make me strong rather than rely on luck to do the rest! Take the initiative and may be realize the side i am on is greener in reality. May be that day i was to realize i was not alone when i thought 'whoosh! that was close', there were a million pedestrians who actually feel lucky to get home unscratched especially on days when i sped past them on the bike. Pessimism crept in long back but that day hope popped up and brightened the silver lining may be something good was climbing up the stairs. Twinkle in the eyes of a kid crossing the road woke up the senses, may be the it was the flash that cleared the bad memories, wiped clean the slate. Signs that were clear, which i never understood and never interpreted correctly, that day it was as clear as the stories my grandma told me.
Indications and signs will always present itself, but how we interpret it and how we let it mold our decisions is were the difference lies. May be the helplessness in a physically challenged person's eyes will make us debate on god's existence or it will make the god in us to rise and do the needful to make that person smile.
