I see Blue, You see Yellow!

Someone very important to me once said, " you see blue, and the other person sees yellow." 

There is no right or wrong in this situation. The color might be something different totally like "green".  No one to blame. Where do all these blame and human emotions come from? Don't worry, I am not going to give you a lesson in science or how the human body works. I am just pointing out the deepest connection. You see a person, you get to know the person, you are thinking I like this person let me do something to make the person happy. Your intention might be just that. "To make the person happy", however, this person sees the same action as, "oh that's nice, this person is doing something for me just like that with no motive. she must really like me." There, that's the connection. This is precisely where the emotions come into the picture. Attachment is formed.

I see blue, they see yellow. 

I did whatever I felt is right, they came to the conclusion what they felt was obvious.  

SO when you want to let go of something, you have to be very clear, It can mean let go of the attachment or let go of the person. 

If you let go of the person, it's fine, you will move on and the person will move on too, however the same thing will or might happen again. 

So let go of the attachment instead. Am I right or what?

Epiphany ooorrr just funnnny??

I know it sounds so cheesy to write about something which changes your life...I have read so many articles, books, blogs, and in-numerous novels that start like ..
I had an epiphany... Or
My life changed that day...Or
I started looking at life from a different perspective...
I have newfound respect for life...
.
.
...and so on...Do I bore you guys with something that starts like that?

Naa...You guys are all brilliant, and everybody knows how to take care of oneself..mostly...
But still, sometimes you do make mistakes, rather we do make mistakes...

We think it is "OK" to postpone little details like "oh my leg is hurting..I will go to the doc tomorrow.."...and u never know that pain in the leg comes and bites u in the ass just a few months down the line...as some big disease...
Hmmm...overload?? hehe..Sorry was trying to be a little dramatic there.

It is actually funny that even when I was on the hospital bed and recovering, I could still find things around me humorous... I was in semi-ICU for a couple of days (after my angioplasty was done, before you ask that is a whole different story). 

So picture this it is 3 am in the night or early morning, the bed to my right had an old lady, and the bed to my left had an even older lady. And both were so much in pain and tired and frustrated, but still bitching and cribbing about each other...

Old lady one would shout, "I am hungry give me rice or laddu or kheeeer" and the old lady two would throw in a derogatory reply and command, "who is that mhatari (old woman) and would someone please shut her up...." as if it is not a hospital but a royal suite and she is "the Queen"...

And believe me, this would go on and on, their cribbing and shouting at each other. 

and me being me could not stop laughing at hearing such comments...

It made me realize, no matter what happens my attitude towards life will never suffer... And no matter how tough times are there is always a bright side or lighter side to it. 

And the lesson here is please find time to laugh and lighten up even though your schedule is busy, life is always going to be hard. However, you can choose whether to crib or laugh about it.
