Have you ever heard about a word called OMEN??? I am sure you have. I had but i am not sure how much i follow them because there are situations when I gave up the belief. I fight back and keep myself walking towards it. It goes like this - one bad omen, one step forward... two bad omens, two steps forward plus a fight...
Yes, after this if you want to call me a fighter in addition with some good adjectives, of course I’ll smile and feel flattered, but my heart inside must be thinking is this worth enough that I wasted my energy or time fighting?
Or you can hold a different point of view like you can very well say that huh! You are not a fighter but a coward who couldn't give up the desire to get something even when you knew that you'll end up in a mess. Trust me in this case too I’ll smile. I don't know whether I’ll feel flattered or not. Anyways that won't make a difference to you Right?
At times I think being superstitious at times helps you to get out of it. It again depends. Many cats died when I crossed their path in my childhood, now if I am not scared after a cat crosses my path is it disrespecting myths/beliefs?? No, I am not doing that, but the poor cat is. As far as I am concerned I can leave the path just to be clean in eyes of Animal's Rights people, and to be kind and generous!!!
Omens have very much significance of animals and colors. Devils are associated with red, or cats have something meaningful to say, it is believed.
Few days back I was discussing with someone that I am encountering too many cats. The person had a strong belief in Omens and he said that Cats always come as a messenger. Oops!! Excited enough I asked how to get the message; He said it depends upon how a cat presents itself???
What??? So I have decided now I’ll write my own luck, I'll encounter cats (Oh it is easy, there are many of them in campus) and infer the way I want to. It’s easy...
See I’ll fight again, even only by inferring, I’ll change my bad OMENS to Good OMENS!!!
OMEN... Oh sorry...
AMEN!!!!
firstly, a nice post....
ReplyDelete>> i repect a person who has the fighting spirit and a fire in the belly to face the hardships of life,but it is advisable not to choose a fite just to prove a point or go against the norms of the society...
A person shud lead his life in such a manner that, when on his death bed,he shud not regret the nonfullfilment of a certain wish of his,just coz he dnt give it a try.... Desires are a product of man's heart and soul,he must not give them up , but try his best to achieve them even thou they mite lead to a mess-- now, he will not be a coward but a content and satisfied person.
>> rightly said that omens affect the way u percieve them-- for some site of a prostitute mite be a positive omen(as per sayings),but for some not so...
# afterall we are all living in a diverse society,with different believes and norms..but at the end of the day,whether a person believes in omens or counters them,society must move forward and let time be the perfect cover ...
I am an atheist.
ReplyDeleteI do not believe in omens.
I do not believe in anything supernatural.
Omens are a farce.
Still it kept me captivated till the end.
Can there be a better compliment for this!
