Of things and places and people and circumstances.. of events happening opposed to expectations, plans or preludes.
Sometimes certain things in life take place or happen to you, without a specific reason or logic behind them . There is no motive, no opinion about it, no expectation of it. I guess what I mean to say is , a 'surprise' just catches you off guard. For a person who swears by 'planning', it is a little hard to appreciate the beauty of springing surprises, we'd rather know or gauge in advance what is to happen next, it gives us that fake satisfaction of avoiding all risks in life and placing a safe bet at all times.
So now, you must make place, make time, make up your mind because of the unexpected surprise. Where does it fit on your emotional calendar ? Do you have the time to deal with associated reactions? Are you okay with it suddenly cropping up and taking away your energy , unplanned and unanticipated ? Sudden questions, unanswered can just mean one thing - anxiety, unnecessary overthinking and finally, reaching a conclusion which is mostly assumptious and silly.
So how must one take it ? Take the impact, the emotions, the reactions of this entire surprise which has sprung upon you ? Choose to look over it, and believe that the original plan is still on? Face it, make adaptations and come up with a new plan ? One single surprise can kill all plans. If it's a pleasant one, it's worth drafting a new one , if it's an unfortunate one, then everything just goes for a toss.
Bottomline - I wish what happened a day ago turns out to be a game changer worth coming up with novelty.
