From Darkness to Light

I don’t like this place. I feel like a prisoner trapped inside darkness for eternity. I was free earlier – free to do what I wanted to do; free to go wherever I wished whenever I wished. But now am in a different world – world that has separated me from my home; a world that has taken away my freedom; the world where I do not belong.

I’m scared. What will happen to me? What will I do here? Will I ever see light again in my life? Will I be able to get out of this mess? Will I ever get back my freedom?

Lot more questions arise in my mind. They only increase my remorse as I’m unable to find the answers. I have never been like this so far. Why should I worry and repent about things I can’t change? Why not try and find out what this new world is all about - may be it’s a better world; or may be not; may be it’s interesting and challenging; may be it’s more rewarding; or may be not.

With the newly found curiosity I look around myself. I see a lot of doors. A sudden thought of hope comes in my heart. Somewhere behind one of those doors is my freedom waiting for me; if only am able to find out the right door; if only I can surpass all the stumbling blocks on my way to success; if only I have the persistence to get what I want.

I sense a new force pushing me ahead to try the options in front of me. I select one of the doors and move forward with all my force. Hey!! What is this!! There are no hindrances as I expected. I go out and see the light!! Have I been so lucky to get it right the very first time? Or is it the same with all doors? My curiosity pulls me back into the same old place to try the other options. I come back and go out again selecting a different door this time. And it’s the same story again.

Wait!! What do I see outside – I see people waiting to see me. They are looking at where they want to find me instead of looking where am present. They appreciate and applaud when I trick them each time. This appreciation is new to me. It gives me a strange feeling of pride and joy. I attribute it all to the new world that put me to test under unknown conditions to bring out the best in me.

They call me a musical fountain; but all am is still the plain water that learnt to adjust and enjoy the new challenges in life without just complaining about changes and wasting time.
