The wind blows past no matter what we do. We can't store wind nor can we stop wind from blowing. We can only prepare ourselves when the wind comes.


Isn't it true that what ever we do can't change what is to happen? There is this old song that goes by whatever will be will be. We reap what we sow, if we do something bad we should anticipate the just deserve. No matter what we do, we can't stop retribution from coming. We can never stop judgement being made. Like the rain, we can't stop it from falling and we can never control it.

We can complain and blame everyone but we can never denial the actual cause of the problem. We should take up the courage to face the problems that is traveling towards us. No matter how hard we try, we can never push away the problems. So whatever it is, we should stay composed and not jump into conclusion.

Like the rain, everything will stop and passed by. Why don't we learn from the clouds and move on. Yes, it does stay for some time but after the rain, it will still move on. Be it happy or sad, it will still come to a closure and everything will be but history. So why dwell in the past when everyone has already moved on? The rainbow is still waiting to appear.

Every so often a rainbow will appear after the rain. But we are too occupied with the rain that we forgot about the beauty of the event that comes after the rain. The beauty of the rainbow is just so nice that people will be memorised by it and forget about rain itself. It is just as true for any event in our lives. We get so preoccupied by what is happening that we fail to see what comes after it.

We should count our blessings when ever we can. Be it in times of storm or in a peaceful oasis we should give thanks for being able to be in it. There is no storm that is forever and no problem that will never fade. Whatever that does not break you, make you. If we are not destroy by the event, we are stronger after going through it. Nothing in this world is eternal. Friends or no friends life still goes on, so why be bothered about these things that will hurt you?

Looking on the positive side, rain will bring water and it will help country in droughts. Lets not always look at things from the bad side. Turn the rotten apple around and you will see the good side. As human we tend to look at things from the wrong side and we should learn to look at things from a more positive point of view.

All this logic may sound simple but when we are faced with an ordeal, can we deal with it in the same way? I will be the first to say no. I have my own set of judgment and have high expectation of what I do. I dwell on matters I can't solve or don't understand. As simple as this may seem, it is difficult for anyone to perform it as a set of guideline to living.

Learnt all these from just a day out. Going to school, studying in school, talking to friends and going home after. People does not see as much, but when they do questions starts generating in their mind. So lets book a day to go ponder about all these.
