Not Much Is As It Seems

It has often happened with all of us. A friend turned out to be quite different from what he or she had seemed to be! Or a relative from whom we never expected much came before us in a different light altogether when the going was rough for us. Or just when we thought that a much-coveted job would give us the ultimate joy life took a different turn altogether... Haven’t we often been caught off-guard thus? Even situations which we had firmly labelled as unfortunate or wonderful ultimately belied all our emphatic declarations. Yes all of us have a limited sense of comprehension. And we are very complex beings. The situations that life presents us with are quite perplex too. We just cannot fathom a person or a situation in its truest form and in its entirety. Most of the time we err gravely in concluding about people and circumstances. It is important to take a pause and look beyond what is obvious...In doing so it may dawn on us that not much is as it seems to be!!!
