I have been thinking for a long time about this very famous saying, "Whatever happens, happens for the best !! "This is probably the most run-of-the-mill phrase used by all of us and we should give the credit to our great ancestors for passing on these golden words to us. Untill a few months ago , I never believed in those words. For me , these words were the easiest excuse for every failure and every compromise that came my way. In other words I was tired of hearing the same phrase for every 'faux pas' of my life and every other 'not so pleasant' event that happened to me. But then one very fine evening, when I was enjoying solitude and thinking about 'Within Y's' song 'Lost in Solitude', I was awakened to the biggest truth of life....." Whatever happens, happens for the best !! "
I have realised how important is every unfortunate event for me. Had I never got a chance to meet the wrong people in the wrong places I would have never become so thoughtful and so sensible in my life. I do believe that every dark cloud has a silver lining to it and every doomed event is a lesson that life teaches you. In our lives, we either meet people whom we like or we meet people whom we do not want to be like. Its equally important to meet people whom we do not like as its only then we realise that those are the wrong people for us, But they may be the right ones for the other set of wrong people around them. Sometimes when you analyse your past you will realise how important failures, betrayals and sorrows were for you to be what you are today. And for all those people who have a feel of superiority in them and feel they are lucky enough to be untouched by traumas and failures, should be left in their own sweet kingdom to enjoy their throne . The difficult times in each man's life is a self evaluating tool prepared by nature for mortals. There has been a constant effort by the almighty to make every man special by testing them with hard times. All we need to do is take advantage of being the intelligent animal and find out the hidden treasure in every possible trauma. Am not here for making every one feel that we are in a fairy land and our life will be picture perfect everytime we face a crisis but I am making an effort to make every one think that what would have they been if they would have never been tested by life. Probably some of us would say that we would have been happier than today but to this the only and only answer would also be an equally famous phrase " The grass is always greener on the other side !!!".

I totally identify with the "whatever happens, happens for the best" phrase.. And i have been aware of it since quite some time.. Each and every turning point in my life has been a result of an avalanche of emotions caused by some personal tragedy. And all these not-so-good experiences have resulted in making me the stronger/smarter/mature woman that i am today :) So no regrets!
