- Undoubtedly, everyone reading the subject caption would unequivocally vouch that life’s pulls and pressures hit us when most unexpected, disturbing the hitherto smooth-sailing applecart. The way things pan out in every individual’s life is not only unique in itself but also offers a different perspective on how experiences are dissimilar. As we know, we are all unique individuals with a distinct DNA mapping our individuality, separating us from one another. No two individuals are similar is stating the obvious and needs no elaboration. As the popular saying goes, it is an indisputable fact that each of us comes alone into the world and leaves when our time is up. What, how, and when we essay roles in between these two inalienable aspects of our life forms the crux.

- Looking deeply into our own experiences and around would sometimes leave us wondering how things pan out in the first place. We are aware that birth is an accident, and we never have a choice in this matter. Once we arrive in this beautiful world, the rigmarole of existence takes effect immediately. Term it orderly chaos or unfathomable happenstances that don’t follow a written script, we as human beings are subjected to a variety of challenges right from the nascent stage of our existence. Thus, the challenges of life take shape in the right earnest, setting us up for what would be tantamount to an indescribable ride of vivid and myriad ecstasy, grief, happiness, sorrow, pleasant, unpleasant, and heart-wrenching experiences forming a part of our life’s existence.

- As mentioned above, there cannot be a written script to maneuver our life the way we envisage it. Not for nothing does the most pragmatic axiom get mentioned repeatedly – man proposes, God disposes. Whatever we may wish would have to be ultimately endorsed by the invisible power that plays an extremely crucial role in our life. Right from our birth, to infancy, to adulthood, to positioning ourselves as grown-ups, to middle age, to old age, and eventual passing away of the mortal body, humans, or for that matter any living beings, are expected to play out our entrusted roles with equanimity and responsibility. How we succeed in staying resilient through varied emotionally turbulent experiences forms the crux of our existence on this beautiful planet.

- Those of us who are blessed with the wherewithal, verve, resilience, perseverance, and accompanying attitude to overcome life’s challenges would be in a better position to overcome obstacles expected along the way. We would emerge less scathed. As the great Swami Vivekananda propounded in his exhortations – good good, bad bad, none escape the karma; those who have form will be bound by chain – always holds true. The mantra is to remain resilient, self-assertive, and to condition our mind to overcome any challenges that life throws at us from time to time. The bottom line is to never throw in the towel when confronted with a seemingly insurmountable challenge but leave no stone unturned to overcome them with greater resolve.
