C'est la vie! Sa Guerre!

Well yes when the going gets tough and life throws lemons at you, there is little you can tell yourself to keep your head from spinning in a whirlwind. Even tears failed me this time. Just when i thought there was nothing that could cheer me up, a french song came to my mind, i had learnt when i was taking french classes way back in school - C'est la vie! Sa Guerre! (This is life, Its war!). Thank heavens, there was something on this earth that could infuse some positivity into my life. And who cares, if its in Zulu or Swahili or French. As long as i get the drift.

Life is a new fight everyday. From getting up in the morning,to catching the bus everymorning, to get work done and meet your own expectations. Sometimes people fail you, at other times you fail people. And with each new day, comes new challenges and new peaks to scale. An ongoing war it is, each day little by little. All but 24 hours. A day is never going to have one minute more or lesser than that - no matter how long a day seems when you're low or how quickly the day ends when its been a good one for you.

Sometimes, the only solution to a problem is to go through it rather than skirting around it. I guess most of us are in the insecure phase of our postered lives. Juggling the eggs, and dropping one or more eggs will often result in a mess. But, you’ve got to keep going through it, till you learn the lesson :) Patience and Perseverance are the keys.

Me to Life: Bring it on! Its war time to make peace ;)

Life to Me: In winter, when the fields are white,I sing this song for your delight. In spring, when woods are getting green, I'll try and tell you what I mean; In summer, when the days are long, Perhaps you'll understand the song. - (Lewis Carroll)

Bonne Nuit!
