Unexpected Resolutions


I saw this award winning documentary called “Struck, the film” which inspired me to write this article. What was remarkable about this movie was it captured emotions and facts about human life, without much conversation.

The protagonist is shown with a arrow struck in his heart throughout the movie, which adds the bit of humor too. This signifies that he probably had a break up. To resolve his condition, his friend introduces him to various girls, one at a time. Each meeting gives rise to a new sitcom, but always in vain. It turns out that one day, without any plan or expectations he goes to a laundry only to find this beautiful girl. The moment she approaches him, the arrow that had been struck for quite a few days, falls down. And they both live happily ever after.

If we carefully observe our daily life, it wouldn't take much efforts to find incidents where in our problems get resolved at unexpected times, in unexpected ways. When we plan a lot, make a desperate attempt to make things happen, seldom do they happen, especially in the matters of heart. Though ‘Love’ and ‘Logic’, both begin with ‘L’, they hardly coexist. A firm belief that eventually everything is going to work out is the secret to find these unexpected resolutions.

Yeah, in deed this is what happens in real life. Thats why I always say "DO NOT keep any expectations in life" & go with the same principles.

When u expect things, you will have a lot of pressure on yourself which will drastically bring down your productivity. People will perform the Best when there is no pressure because they need not get scared for anything in at that point in time.

Ultimately "DO NOT keep Expectations in life"!! Be it Love/Exam/What ever

This has worked with me in more or less all the situations, I hope it will work with you as well..

Good to see your comment Sutapa! Yes, expectations are a good thing, but beyond a certain point, they bring in some disappointments. I entirely agree with AK!
