Swimming against the flow is adventure!

Oh God! What days those were...

I started my life in a good river. Even as I started it, I seemed to know where it would lead me. I followed the currents. The currents were good to me, they guided me fine. They taught me a lot on thier way. As I swam with the currents, I would think what a fine swimmer I would make in the coming days.

"swimming against the flow is adventure"... was my dads favourite quote. I never even thought of swimming against the flow. Why should I? Afterall life was so fine for me. I got everything I needed by just following the currents.

But, what I didnt think was, the river would finally reach the big ocean...where I would have to decide things for myself. If river had one path and one goal, an ocean would have thousands. Before I could even think I have been pushed onto this ocean. Thousands of currents flow past me...which one do I take? On what basis do I take em? All my decisions were based on pleasing someone or the other. Who is it this time?

Let me decide stuff for me so that I can please myself. But, having said that, I dont know what would make me happy. I am not able to decide that. I wish I knew it. I wish someone was there to guide me. I have lots of ppl to guide...but each one has thier own path. Which path is the best for ME? I dont know.

God...I rely on you completely. I hope you give me the answers in the coming days.
