Life Stranger than Fiction

Dear Satchi,

When I saw this post of yours with 20 responses, I was wondering how did I miss your post for this long only to find out later that it was posted only today. But it is understandable that a lot of ILites jump at the first opportunity to read such a popular writer's post as quickly as possible especially when we don't see that many snippets from you. Probably, you were busy with your own things in addition to the wedding in Jaipur.

Life is definitely stranger than friction and most unexpected things happen from total strangers. In fact, as far as helping others are concerned, I always feel one should consider that as an opportunity rather than a favor. Every experience happens for a reason which we could never understand. Him coming your way, you stopping to find out what happened to him, you seeing the blood group card in his wallet, you asking a question about whether he could help with O+ blood group and him volunteering to help, etc. are all happening as destined. Even if one of the chain of activities is missed out, this wouldn't have been possible.

Situations like this humbles us a lot. How trivial our identity is in a scheme of things that someone makes happen meticulously? Knowing or unknowingly, we surrender to the will of the divinity. Your sympathetic attitude to check what happened to him, your asking him whether he knows someone with O+ blood group and him ready to help all shows humanity continues to thrive helping each other.

Experiences and lessons we learn out of it are important. The process and quality of living is invaluable than what is perceived by the world as extraordinary. The world unfortunately uses a different barometers rather than character of the individuals. If wealth is lost nothing is lost but when character is lost, everything is lost. The best intentions always produce best results.

Hey Satchi, thanks for sharing your beautiful experience. Is it Iktefaqi or Iraadi?

Yes, truth is stranger than fiction. If we take an event of our life and look back, there will be other unrelated events that may have happened that helped the current event to occur. If we take away any one of those events, the current event wouldn't have happened. Looks like some one kept the jigsaw puzzle of events in order.

Hope your BH's aunt get well soon.

Dear Satchi,
Everyone is a combination of good, not so good and some very good in every aspect (rare). Sometimes when they make themselves conspicuous with both the traits simultaneously we are awestruck!!!! Yes, many times life is stranger than fiction. Fiction is imagination and life is real.
