Hey, how are you doing?
Over the last 16 weeks, we’ve been speaking through Hastākshar.
I think we’ve come close enough to discuss my personal life.
Earlier this afternoon, I was sitting and chatting with a wonderful young lady.
I’ve been meeting many such people under the arranged marriage format.
The idea is simple, right?
Based on what you seek, you explore one person after another.
Finally find someone. Live happily ever after.
This is not just my story, but yours, too.
And the story of every other soul in this world.
You keep doing things, one after another.
Education, celebration, socialisation, meditation, career, travel, rest, and the list goes on.
All with the idea of finding something that makes you happy.
Something that gives you your ‘happily ever after.’
But it seems to elude us, na?
This journey will end one day.
Either you find what you seek, or you die in the process.
There is no third option.
Until then, we can take solace in the fact that everyone is on the exact same path as us.
Or refuse to run the race, stop where we are.
Perhaps we will find our ‘happily ever after’ right where we stand.
Who knows?
Until then, chill. Breathe. Smile.
Because that’s pretty much what you’re going to do once you find what you seek.
