Waiting for the magic...

There have been times in the past when i had sensed that i was about to fall off the cliff with no hope left whatsoever.... but then.... something used to pull me back...just in time. That had felt nothing short of sheer magic. I think i need that magic to help me out again...one last time. It may manifest itself in any way possible. It could be in the form of a happy coincident- serendipity, it could be by the way of change of heart or it could simply be a bizzarre twist of fate of sorts which changes a person's life inside out.

If the magic doesn't come to my rescue this time around, i don't plan on blaming its absence for the void that might be left in my life in the future. I guess i'm expecting it because they say that fortune smiles on the brave. Now, there i got to use my favorite proverb, as well as i got to call myself brave..!

Life has already thrown a bunch of sucker punches at me, and i think i've done a pretty darn good job still staying on my feet. There were times when i was knocked out cold, but i somehow managed to stand up again, asking for more. There came the magic again. The truth is, this magic is inside me. The problem is, that it comes out very seldom. And i think i would need it to come out in all its glory a bit more often for the next year or so. Life has tried to punch me out to sweet slumber many times, but i've kept coming back, again and again. I have not stayed down. And i don't intend on doing that anytime in the near future.

As they say, the true character of a man is not defined when he's on the top of the world or a woman; it's defined when how he makes it up back to his feet every single time he's knocked down....

I think it's time to put my character to test. And life can bring anything and everything it has got to put me out for good again..because i'm going to bring out that magic...my magic...yet again...

  2. hey pratik..hw r u man?

    i relate to this post the most..coz i beliv in the same magic too. Ironically, many things that we go in search of in our life..is right within us. We r awake outside n asleep within.

    just to add on to wht u hv said..." Being brave does not mean fearless..it means..chasing ur dreams n goals inspite of ur fear"

    Cheers to a grt Life buddy..keep in touch..

    Ciao!!
