This too shall Pass


There are two basic theories which define the actual occurence of events in the universe....one, the theory of randomness, or chaos, and another, the theory of exactness,a mathematically designed infinite chain of events, equations, that occur owing to some preordained mathematical objective which is necessarily destined to occur.
Both, I must confess, are highly complex ideas that would require advanced logical analysis which, needless to say I happen to be quite incapable of, and yet, the underlying principle is surprisingly easy enough for every human mind to comprehend.

The theories themselves appear to be paradoxical, none offering a substantially accurate solution within our logical reasoning capabilities. Sometimes, (notice when we are frustrated or excessively overjoyed about something) it seems like everything upto that point has been carefully designed to give us cause for the intense misery or unexpected elation that we may be experiencing. At others, our lives and everything associated seem to be positively uncontrollable. We crave some reason, some explanation, consolation, or else, we simply resign to fate . The latter would constitute majority of our lives, when we cannot construe the meaning behind happenings, and it would be seriously tiring to try. Thats probably why most of us are dunces, and luckily, happily, go about our daily lives without wondering, for the most part, why a particular thing had to happen, at exactly a particular point of time, to a particular person.

I've been wondering why we don't,that is, question. At least not for a very long time. Even in the moments we're desperately exclaiming--"Why?? God why did this have to happen to me!!!????" we search for answers internally, and inevitably, come up with some solution....this must have happened because I did such and such. It is a basic human tendency. Accordingly, we accept punishment or reward without going into the nuances of why something happened, whether it was the result of a continuous chain of random events or whether it was directly or indirectly consequential of some of our previous actions.

Truth is, there's no need to figure out. Everything ends as everything begins. This too, without a doubt, shall pass!!!!

  1. The tendency usually is to apply the 'theory of exactness' when good things come your way but pretend otherwise and gasp, "god! i never even thought i deserve it you know!" when actually you are thinking, "i so deserve it 'cause i'm like the Queen of bees!" While the theory of randomness is an absolute boon when you are down in the dumps, "all(taking the liberty to assume 'all') misfortunes befall me for no fault of mine!". Each has it's own place and it is interesting how inspite of nature and nurture we all attempt to rationalize things the same way
