Go With The Flow

Actually I had composed this post for a long time but didn’t publish it and had also kept changing the content on and off, so this is not the original content. Finally I decided to post it. Let’s see you understand or got so confuse after reading it? This is the typical A,B,C,D,E… story that you usually see in magazines/newspapers column. I’m not going to respond to any comments that you post as I have no idea what to respond to you too.

Here you go… Fiction or non-fiction, go figure it out yourself.

A lost B in a tragedy. Then C happened to have feelings towards A and helped A went tru’ the lost. Then A made a stupid statement to C one day and this had made C put on so much hope on A. A was lonely and sad, C was like a wall for A to lean on.

A came to senses after going tru’ some counseling from D. A realised that there is no way A can accept C. C is only a replacement of B. A told C about it and C was devastated but still hoping. A and C have different mindsets, different expectations, different believes in life. A doesn’t feel a sense of security at all but fears and restlessness when thinking of accepting C. Not that C abuses A, it’s just that C is not what A wants. C is just a best friend to A and there is nothing more than that. All that started was because of unstable emotions.

Eventually when A regains the strength, D introduced E to A. It was just meant to get to know new friends(E is the brother of D and D is the sister of B[go figure!]). Who knows… Special feelings built within E and was interested to take it up to another stage with A. A wanted to but A wasn’t very sure as A is still having problems with C. A told E about it and E accepted the fact that A is trying to settle the problem and both agreed that let things goes with the flow.

Dragged and dragged and finally A couldn’t let it flows, there is no way to let things go as the flow. A and C must face the music eventually. It’s easy when there are no knots in between but there are tonnes of them in between that make them so hard to unknot. A is worry that things might turn ugly and there might not have any turning back, everything might crumble into pieces, there are so many knots at stack. A is confused and frustrated on what to do. A doesn’t want to loss and hurt C because C is someone A appreciates as a friend that can be trusted and a friend that helps A a lot. It’s not an easy decision. Summore A must not let E waited for too long. At the end A might lose the love of E and the friendship of C.

Till now… A is still in dilemma.

“Goes with the flow”, we tend to like to use this phrase on just about anything. I started to disagree with it when I think it from another perspective. You must not go with the flow! Opportunity comes and you just have to grab it. There is no way to go with the flow, you must jump out of the flow whenever you can, else you’ll be meeting with dead end. You will loss everything at the end. It’s the same as when you fell into a river with strong current. You should try to get out of there else you’ll be dragged even further and ended up at the end of the river where you are going to go down with the waterfall and die. So when there’s chance to get out of the river, you must get out a.s.a.p. There might not be any chance anymore.

Goes with the flow is not always good. Think twice before you decided to go with the flow.

*SHRUG* How on earth that suddenly I’m becoming so philosophical?
