One Good Thing Leads To Another

Yes i had heard this proverb before also but today i actually experienced this happen to me. Its actually a very small instance and it may seem stupid to even write on blog. But i think that this observation made a difference to my life.

Here's the thing... Actually for the past 10-12days i was a little pissed off with myself. I had got my best friend Rahul terribly wounded, about which i was feeling really bad. What also pinched me were my growing unhygienic habits. I was keeping my room utterly untidy. I didn't even use to clean my bed before going to sleep. My room smelled of rat's shit. All my winter clothes were dirty and i didn't care for giving them to laundry. My bathing frequency had decreased drastically. I had even become irregular with my kriya. I was having a tough time with few of my group members at the ongoing survey camp. I had got scolded by a prof for bad performance in his subject's end-sem exam. I was informed that i'll have to cancel my trip to bangalore as the scheduled viva on 2nd jan was not getting postponed. Overall speaking, nothing seemed to be going right for me.

However today when i was returning after doing the survey task, i accompanied Rahul to the main gate and just hung out. It felt good to see his recovery and regaining lost terms with him after the accident. And then, as the title of this post says, one good thing led to another. I returned to my room and kept water for heating so that i can take bath, went to the laundry to give dirty clothes and take back the washed ones. After bathing and wearing cleaned clothes after a reasonable time gap, i even felt like meditating, which i wasn't feeling like doing since the past few days. So i did my kriya and had quite healthy dinner, after which i watched an episode of the vampire diaries. And now here i am all set to go to sleep, even before 11pm. I hope this series of good things will continue with me getting up early tomorrow and cleaning up the rest of my room( i have already cleaned my bed).

I do know that these series of good and bad things would continue throughout my life. But what i have realized is that bad things are just a doorway for good things to happen. The pinch or learning experience that we get from the bad things ultimately leads to a good thing, after which more good things follow.

Alright. Enough said for now. Good night!
Bye.
