On Trials and Tribulations

There are many flavours to an ice-cream. Most people prefer it on top of a cone, inside a cup or they like it with another dessert. People mostly savour a strawberry, a vanilla or a chocolate ice-cream. Those are the most selling flavours in the world. Ever wondered why people like a certain ice-cream flavour to others? I reckon its how we are conditioned to order things in our life. We like things that are readily available; especially food items. We generally go to any restaurant and order things that are tried and tested,ordered and reordered,over the course of time. This is our strategic neccesity towards safety. Tried and Tested. That is how we do all things in life. Choose a Bride or Groom-which has been tried and tested. Choose a tried and tested car. Choose a tried and tested mobile phone. Choose a tried and tested career. If we put people into a torture chamber or put a gun to their head or put them under extreme or put them to oath-they would all testify. Had they known the consequences of the unknown-they would have ventured out to the dark dungeons of uncertainty. They would have silently withstood the secrets to their desires. The future is I believe not as uncertain. It is just the moment, it passes but safely. Desire and happiness are all about walking the untrodden path. Harmony is only had when we walk a tightrope with a deep river on one side and a deeper valley on the other. But life after all starts with just one single. That step is to conquer the fear between choosing a vanilla ice-cream and chilli flavoured one. Have a treat!!!
