My Biggest Fear encountered The Biggest Truth Of Life!

What a way to make the first post...I am not one of those writers who use fanciful verbiage and get the attraction of readers, and that makes me a candid and simple blogger..

14th December 2010,  had a delicious lunch and then I headed towards my afternoon lecture. I saw lots of people near the auditorium some with sad faces while some with confused. Wondering what in the world has gone wrong, I walked through the crowd towards the notice board and....my Formula-1 buddy was gone...All of a sudden my mind and heart started functioning asynchronously, the former full of shock and latter full of grief, and I slipped into the state of Numbness..

The whole evening I just kept staring into infinity without thousands of thoughts running in my head. It was then I pondered over a funny equation of our life....Everyone of us has some fear, which may either be of defeat, scary places, etc.. and the most weirdest part is that these fears keep on changing in different phases of our life...

PHASE -1 <> FEAR -1
This is probably the best phase of life full of joy and no tensions. As far as I am concerned,  doing all sorts of masti and bashings from teachers were the only two items on my agenda :) However, my biggest fear then was "bashings from my teachers and maa"


PHASE - 2 <> FEAR-2a, 2b
This phase had lots of stuff in store for me be it competing in board exams and securing a merit rank or the first crush. Initially my biggest fear was "Cut throat Competition and  meeting everyone's expectations" which then evolved into another fear "Secret Meetings with the first crush! fear of getting caught!!"


PHASE -3 <> FEAR-3
This is the phase I am currently in and to be honest its not at all easy to handle. I guess the fears I have now are countless because there is nothing like my school where I just had two point agenda, rather there are thousands of things now to bother about. I might seem to be exaggerating but 80% people of my age and my profession will agree to this fact. We fear of losing out in entrance exams and if we are through with this we fear of losing out the top rank in class and if we are through again, we fear of not getting a placement with a hefty package and if we are through yet again, we fear of losing that job.............and it goes on......

However what an irony...one fine morning all of a sudden we feel relieved, wondering what the hell is going on  ? where are my fears?......Why is everything so bright.......Then when you look down you see people crying around something....You reach closer to see what is that something and to your surprise it is your very own body and thats when you encounter the BIGGEST TRUTH OF LIFE!! --- DEATH---

I said its an irony because End of All Fears is Biggest Truth Of Life....And that is where my friend is...A much better place and life, what we call afterlife....May he Rest In Peace.....
