  2. Indeed Alka. So simple but so profound, the beauty of powerful thoughts lies in its simplicity. We are constantly in this zone of dilemma and life is contest between “to be and not to be”, few comes out of experience, few out of intuition and few out of inspiration to take such decisions in life where we are left with no choice. Life keeps throwing such challenges at us and we have face and race ahead in life, not easy to escape the reality of life and not take such challenging decision and move towards the good rather than bad part of taking a decision…
    It has left me in deep contemplation and still trying to fathom the dichotomy of life.

    • Thanks Nihar! Simple and spontaneous writing is always better and comes easy. Yes, dilemma is there at every step of life, even in simple day-to-day things. In case of bigger challenges, well the test is usually about the outcome of our decision – Is our action ethical? Is it going to produce the best results for me and those around me? Sometimes it’s better to not dwell too much on this issue of – to do or not to do – but just do the right thing in our given circumstances.
      Thanks for your insight! Always welcome.

      • I agree Alka it is instinct that matters and the flow comes when we are in that zone and allowing ourselves to explore and expand our creativity tentacles to get grip and get going. Excessive analysis leads to paralysis of thoughts and also delay in decision…faster decisions makes lot of difference to the outcome, doing the right thing at the right time can be magical but get the combination is not easy, so taking decision based on intuitions and instincts is always a better way of handling such situations.
        Always a pleasure reading your lovely posts and looking forward.
        :D:D
