Glimpse

There was a time when everything was so simple. When things were right and things were wrong and I could distinguish between them so easily. No worries, no problems, no obstacles barring my path.
I wish I could still see them as clear as black and white. Now, there is only shades of gray.
It seems there are strings attached to everything I do. When one door opens, another closes and vice-versa.
Someone was right in saying 'One can't have everything'. If you try to do four different things at once, you will definitely stumble. But if you do them one at a time, things will start to get clearer and clearer and then you will catch glimpses of color.
Life is not always, a simple straight line. It curves and curves and curves. And even when you fail , it does not mean that you have lost your way; it just means that you have slowed down to a crawl. Don't stop. Don't look back. Just carry on. And sooner or later you will reach your destination.

I have started my journey. I am on very steep and narrow curve. It got me thinking. Crossing this is going to be very difficult. But should I stop and give up. I can't let go now that I have started. I can see some color right ahead of me. Very far off, faint; but there.
I will make it. Thats why I have decided to start recording everything I do. To remember this struggle once I complete this journey and reach the destination filled with color.

I just caught a glimpse of it.
