My thoughts kept shifting between these two games and their symbolic meaning, while friends were fully engaged in balancing the puzzle pieces while adding or removing pieces one after the other.
Life is an ensemble of experiences, which are not always the outcome of stand alone experiences, but and confluence of them.
In a conversation with some friends, I realised that we are 'on the go' because of the nature of our work and work related responsibilities.
It is a mystery that we live with a measure of wellness in the midst of all the events that happen within us and around us.
I became aware of this even more yesterday, when a Sunbird seems to have abandoned its nest half way due to some reason. As it was in a nutmeg tree in our courtyard, I was looking forward to see it nest and watch the process of taking care of the young birds.
Now that the nest looks abandoned for the time being, I wonder whether it was because of the ant nest adjacent to it!
Is this not the reality! We find something or other that disturbs or dislocates us from our mission!
I wish and look forward to the Sunbird returning! But if it does not, it has chosen to pursue another site for its nest.
There are times when one has to revise the journey path in life due to unsurmountable difficulties. When we have to do that, it is a sign of pursuing a mission which is close to us.
During this season of Christmas and New year, it is a good time to have a closer view of the canvas of our lives which is an imprint of our life events. Is it a true representation of what we set out to do in our lives!
Living with a relook at our life trajectory is a way of reorganising the pieces of the puzzles into a better order or pattern.
