Life often changes suddenly, when you're least expecting. When you have either given in to your circumstances or have decided to choose a course different from what you have been fighting for. Just when you have accepted fate, something comes along. Something you have been wanting deep inside for a long time but had taught yourself to forget about it or learned to give more importance to something else.
Of course you are elated to have found what you had been really looking for. You forget instantly about all the other things that you had convinced yourself were more important and let yourself flow freely with a smile on your face and joy in your heart. The heart. But who could understand the workings of a heart.
Soon enough you get used to your changed life. What you had desired for so long and gotten after such wait, becomes natural to you. Now you start to remember those other things which weren't really important then. What happened, why do you think of them now. All that time that you spent trying to forget your deepest desire and trying to put other things in its place, worked its way. These other things became a way of your life and you didn't realise. Only now, when the charm of your realised dream starts fading, it occurs to you that those other things had long become your new desire. Now, you want more than ever, to return to those paths you then thought were only a compromise and had quit so easily.
That's the working of a heart, if only I could fathom, I'd be more content. Or would I be?
