A Chance...

I remember my childhood days playing cricket or the marbles with my 'galli'(street) friends. on getting 'out' we use to say 'one more chance! one more chance please!' or 'if i got another chance i would have won the match for my team'.
...I wonder why do we always need another chance. is one chance not enough..? is one opportunity not enough..? if we are not able to accomplish something in the given frame of time then how are we so sure that we'll do it if given another chance. yes and we ignorant people play this gamble with our own lives too. like for example i have seen few people that almost have seen the death angel coming in front of their eyes to pull away their souls but then going back saying you have been granted a CHANCE..., by chance!. than this makes the person really understand the motive of his life and the value of the chance he has been granted. a person meets with an accident or witnesses a horrible accident in which he or the other person narrowly escapes. this incident shakes his complete senses..and forces him to realize what would have happened if the person really was hit by the car...or what would be the case of his family, if it was he in place of the other guy. what would have been the next episode if it was he in place of that guy. is a kick like this really needed for each of us? why cant we understand the true meaning of this beautiful life granted to us first hand..? if this would have been the case then the world would have been a beautiful place to live, without the fearful thought of the very death that shakes us now.
The life is so valuable for oneself. struggle to spend it the right way so that we wont have any regrets later...later here refers to the infinite time come.
This reminds me of a famous story of a man who says to a barber seeing a dirty long haired man in front of his shop. "barbers do not exist. other wise people like this dirty long haired man wont have existed." listening to this the barber says.."barbers DO exist..but if the people are not interested in coming and seeing them, then thats how they end up dirty".
we are bound to remember the ONE so that everything goes smooth and fine with us.....and yeah, break the queue and rush....don't wait for a chance :)

Whoa..been quite a long time since i browsed ur blog.. Hmm, yep, i do believe that if luck gives us another chance, then surely we would act in a more matured way, the prev experience coming to our rescue(the probability of being successful the another time is again conditions dependent).. And yep, I think that God often gives us many chances to rectify ourselves. Its just that we need to open our mind gates to look what we have lost/what we are losing with our inability to c our own failures..
Nice one nyway.. :-)
