Fathomless


I have never been able to come to terms ever with what designs God has for you, some call it luck or destiny, I call it HIS planning. Sometimes it feels like these puzzle pieces that fit remarkable well into the whole puzzle of life really soon and sometimes it takes a while to have the pieces fit it, slight tempering that may be required to get them into that ‘set’ frame I guess.

To add to the dilemma of the puzzle pieces, God tests you if you are able to decide on the exact right piece that u need to put into your life puzzle!! He gives you couple of options and keeps on juggling with you and them, repeatedly putting you in funny situations and more so on grim crossroads!

Some may fit ‘just’ right and you never regret them and sometimes you look back and think if you would have had picked the others. What makes us take decisions that we do? Do we react exactly the way God wanted us to, or do we call it our rationalized thinking and execution? What happens when the decisions are made in split seconds, and we have no time to think, do we call it Gut or reflex action or what?

Is there a sign hidden in all that is happening around us and how do we pick them up?

Is there someone above us who steers us or do we credit it to our ingenious minds?

I gaze, I fail to fathom.

IT'S US.

When a fly approaches our eyes and there are milliseconds to take evasive action, which is conciously impossible, what generally happens is....

Weak example but applies everywhere. The above was about instincts. This sometimes comes from experiential learning and otherwise at others. Similarly, there are so many mechanisms engrained into our system, most of them we don't seem to fathom and recognize.

Let's not undermine HIS scheme of things for the course that our life takes, for we say that HE (why not she or it...?) holds the credit for conceptualizing and materializing the most complex and sophisticated machine ever made... US. We'd be doubting his creativity if we were to think that he needs to intervene now and then in our lives. Billions of people, billions of lives, and all so vulnerable?!! If that's the case, we are actually calling him a poor manufacturer. GOTTA TEACH GOD SIX SIGMA.

I too dont believe in destiny.. but sometimes i do not know what to name them.. his planning... can be our destiny.. but if that's what i dont call it.. what name do we give to things that are not in our control?

Don't give one name to it.

Uncertainty can be the source of thrill... like in a movie.

Uncertainty can be a turn-on... like sometimes in bed.

Uncertainty can be the cause of worry.

Uncertainty can be the pleasure of a surprise that your man would romantically spring for you once in a while.

Give it a name according to the precedent.
