Some like it hot!!

Just another chain of thoughts from my ever-so-fertile mind....
Actually not... I cant remember whether I read it somewhere... or heard it somewhere... or if it really did sprout somewhere in my "ever-so-fertile" mind...
Anyway, I just landed on this thought while taking a shower... Ever realized how similar a shower is to life?
You try and balance the hot water and the cold until you are able to get that perfect temperature... By the time you get it, you would have become used to... how do I put it... the adverse temperature conditions. And then suddenly, the perfect temperature doesnt seem that good after all. It'll be either a little too cold or little too warm for your taste.
Know what I mean? You go about, trying to reach that balance in life. Could be in academics... Could be at work... Anywhere. You fight through tremendous pressures, longing for a peaceful, calm, smooth life. After what might seem like an eternity, you actually might get that calmness. But by now, you are so used to all that heat, that this sudden comfort, is believe it or not... discomforting! Strange? Maybe. Probably whacky! But true nonetheless.

Such is life! Cool! Or is it hot??? Take your pick..

One of those days again I suppose????
At least the shower is under your scope of control but what about all the things external that are there and we have to adjust to them.
Sometimes, those are the ones that scare me more as it does not always have to be them changing.
uummmhhhhh, time to take a sutta break now.

Hehe(C)... the analogy is perfect but incomplete.... ever had the situation where you have reached the perfect temperature and are having the time of the life...but there is always the little cartoon devil tapping your shoulder and saying this is too good to last.... n then wham.... water runs out and the soap suds are still there.... just like life... just when you think you have figured out how to juggle 2 balls.. a smart ass by the name of GOD throw you another one.... with of course the customary Hehe(C)....

ye measurement ko apan bolte values. bole to pata nahin main kahan se kahan ja raha hun but hai to blog hi..to bolta hun ek dialogue jo pahle kabhi suna apan ne..ki "its never hard to make decisions when you know what your values are" kya padh rahe ho...paani garam ho gaya naha lene ka fataafat :D
