Universal helper

I guess there is a overwhelming force which is always pushing us toward something. And its always for our own good.

Well, take today itself. I had decided to go buy a pressure cooker today. Got ready and all to go shopping, when I just felt kind of lazy and thought I will do the shopping in the evening.
I put on the comp and started watching Friends... with a feeling at the back of my head that I am not doing good by postponing the shopping.

Guess what? The power went within 1/2 hr of my sitting down to watch the show. And then it dawned on me that maybe God wants me to go out there and get what I had decided to get. And I did go get the stuff.

Such kind of incidents have happened so many times... that I feel guilty that I have ignored most of the guidance which the force has been trying to give me.
Even in friendships/relationships, there have been incidents where it was clear what the future holds for me, and I have tended to ignore the omens (if u may call them that!!!). And in return I have disappointed myself time and again.

Nobody else's responsible for our disappointments... and what is a disappointment actually? Its the feeling when some event does not happen as we wanted it to happen. Maybe what we wanted was wrong and what we should actually want was shown to us earlier but we chose to ignore.... :-(

I need to let myself free and follow the omens. There is so much I need to do... to be a better person and that too a happy one.

"Believe what your eyes tell you for for fact and not what your heart wants you to believe..... and never assume things. Assumptions are the first steps to disappointment! " -> I had written this on a messageboard one very sad day... and I believe this is what I need to do ...
