More than once, in fact many more times that once I have found myself in a situation that has left me feeling helpless, weak, scared, worried and last but not the least asking God, 'Why’? Is this 'Why' something that only I ask?
I guess not, because when I look around and talk to people, I find that most people at some time or the other do ask questions, which begin with a 'Why?' Why did this happen to me? Why didn't I get a promotion when I deserved one? Why haven't I found something that I have been looking for? Why isn't there a less painful way to deal with things?
Then, one day I read a poster which said, 'God has a plan for my life and that's all I need to know'. The profundity in the simple line struck me, and I decided to adopt it. In due course, I have realized that there is a reason why things happen the way they do. More often than not, the reasons may not be apparent to us right away, which makes us ask those Whys. And, there are some reasons we may not find even during our entire lifetime. But the reasons are there. And if you look closely, then apart from a few bad things, which are basically aberrations, there is something positive about everything. With a little effort, we can see the positive side. And as for the whys, I guess, they'll be there.
