An eclipse is a rare experience. When do you ever hear that
the sun or moon have crossed each other’s paths? It is such a beautiful site.
Be it a lunar or solar eclipse….and for just a few minutes, there is either a
shadow or complete darkness and soon the experience is over. Though it’s funny
how, when u look at the sun with your bare eyes on a normal day, you don’t get
any effect but during an eclipse, your eyes actually do hurt and you have to
wear the protective UV glasses. Coming to think about it…where do guys store
them? Hmmmm
In reality, we do experiences eclipses; the point in life
where one is stuck in a dark situation and is struggling to find their way out.
We tend to fight ourselves till the path ways are finally clear. The sad bit is
by the time we are finding the way out…we are damaged. Just like looking at the
sun during an eclipse…..it stings, is painful and to some can actually leave
you blind. One tends to cry their heart out, fight themselves, others enter
depression, while others fight with denial.
Though others have the protective film all over themselves
and they are able to glide through the situation because they know how to
handle it. Fighting their way out though sing the right techniques. Then we
tend to wonder: How the hell did you pull
though it? I believe it’s the mentality of once bitten twice shy….
At the end of the day, it is just a passing trial. Which are
to make s stronger, smarter and careful. We aren’t super heroes….that is for
sure but we can overcome the 15 minutes of darkness and take it to be an
experience that we will never forget because in reality we all experience
different situations that still have the same note if not effect; right?
