THE post.

At times, just when things seem fine and when we finally start believing that life isn't such a bitch after all, it does something to prove us wrong.
There are no reasons for the bad things that happen to us or to those around us. No explanation why some one's life is cut short by 50 years in a flash of a second. Or why some people go Scott free despite the crimes they commit. I'm not young enough or old enough to buy the age old excuse "god just loved them more and wanted them close to him". Sorry, it just doesn't cut it. We've always been told how god is this generous magnanimous energy and then to make us believe that he's selfish enough to take people away from their loved ones? Sorry, like i said it just doesn't cut it!
So if there are no reasons, no second chances, no comebacks; should there be no hope too? should there be no belief?
I know i believe in God and no matter how hard i try to not believe in him, i find myself praying to him every night. He has a way with us, a way of showing us that all is not lost. that all is never lost. In the worst of our times he'll shine a ray of sanity. Something that'll make us believe in humanity and the purpose of living again. It could be the smallest of thing. it could be the cab driver who drove you at 3 in the morning across the city or the security guards who offered you their chair. Absolutely anything.
But then again, are these smaller things power full enough to over power the loss? I highly doubt that. Time they say is the best healer. Everything, even the deepest wounds heal with time. So should we wait? wait for it to pass? Only to know that once this passes, something else will be there to grieve about.
