The humble and the most punitive beast in today's world is... Any guesses, Yes you are right, it is the TIME. Most of us take this beast for granted. One thing I have realised that I must enjoy the present moment and if not now then when!!Sometimes, whether we like it or now, rules have to be obeyed. This especially goes for the single thing like the TIMEI have enjoyed my moments of dodging time and playing with it promiscuously. I have had a great deal of fun cheating time and living by the moment. And then when I woke up one fine day, I realised that it was not time I was dodging, but myself….I guess one should not gamble unless one can live with the loss if things don’t work out the way you had hoped!
But all said and done, I still reminisce the nice era when me and my buddy TIME were inseparable.
There have been times when I pray for certain phases in my life to vanish from my memory, but actually I am wrong, those phases which have gone by have taught me lots of things. Victory, defeat, hurt, happiness, sadness,love, care, affection, reciprocation, patience, anger, laughter, elusion, emotions, ignorance, relationships and many more. an endless list of things, if only we ponder , we can realise how valvuable this 'beast' has been. As they say there will be a TIME when you realise how important few things are in life.
TIME is simple yet so complicated. Sometimes, it doesnt matter how hard you try and get close, TIME always eludes you - but then at other times, no matter how much you try to stay away, you are sucked in by the vortex!!! And then there is always the case where you just know you care and comforted by the fact that TIME is alsways there till you hit the grave.

Ah the TIME! We all wanna control it, rewind it and take what we want & wipe out the trash and change everything that we dont like but TIME - that cheaty little bugger, doesn't allow us to do what we want! And that is a blessing most of the times!
If I ever the chance to back in TIME & change somthing, it wud b thisd- Tell chithi how muc I love her, & hug her & be nice to her, take care of her & hold her hands until she takes her last breadth.... Yeah, I wanna change just that much.....
But TIME, would u oblige me just this once?
The best way is to live in the moment and not worry about the past or the future. I was very happy when I had nothing to look forward to or nothing to look back at.
