When you focus on a problem too hard, they say you find solutions. I say you find parallels. Watched couple of tennis matches and they tell us all about life.
When you want to survive the tournament called life(there is nothing like winning in life and no grand slam title & prize money exist; the best you can do is not get ousted.)
There is only one way, hang in there…
hang in there when you fight the mightiest
hang in there even though you made mistakes earlier and caused this situation
hang in there even if there is no hope
don’t say I quit…
be it Peer-Serena match or Blake-Gonzalez match. You win, if you don’t think you are not as good as the guy in front of you and if you don’t quit.
Now how do you think you are as good as the guy in front of you, if there are statistics and people to prove otherwise? And how can you stay when the situation is unlivable?
I have no answers. I have never tried this. I am a quitter.
And if I was Peer, I would make my mind to loose to Serena, she has so much experience and its my first time in Quarter finals of a Grand Slam.
If I was Serena, I would make up my mind to loose to Peers, she is a 19-year old, who upset third seeded Russian in the previous set, remember Serena is now unseeded.
If I was Serena, I would not fight 4 set points to loose first set, as I already made mistake to come to the stage of 6-3.
If I was Serena I would not pick up my form in second set. Look Peer had to win only one set and Serena two.
I told you I am a quitter.
May be Peer thought, I can win one I can win again.
May be Serena thought, I have so much experience and so much success behind me. Let me get back.
May be Serena picked u form after thinking, I made some unforced errors, why not fix them in this match only…why wait for another
This is something you see a lot in movies and matches, underdog and unexpected winners…beautiful thought for some …and beautiful truth for others….

Help Required
Why can’t the world decide for once and tell me the rules of life, what should I think, what I should do. Once and for all…consistent rules, standard rules…as clearly put as the periodic table in chemistry.
Why can’t the world tell me how to react in every scenario and know a person when I look in his eyes? How can I know what to think assume and expect? When different people say different things…even same people say different things.
There are times when I suffer because I don’t speak my heart; and many times I suffer because I did. I suffer when I talk and share; and many times the reason for miseries is said to be lack of communication
There are times when I suffer because I have faith in a person and many times because I have none. Why can some one question me all the time, and I should believe in their each word.
Why should I be told I am indulging and asking for too much when I ask for a life I want; and why another set of people say my problem is that I don’t fight enough.
Why cant people see I am trying to do good and sticking to the values and if these are the wrong set of values tell me the right one.
At times I am told my problems are because I am alone and at times my problems are because I seek someone.
And how can it be my mistake all the time.
Especially when everyone is as clueless.
I can’t listen to people and learn. Because the people who say they know what to do are usually lying and just know what I can do for them. They are equally confused and cynical.
And life teaches nothing. It just confuses. And time, It treats like you have signed up for a roll-a-costar ride. Happiness and despondency being a defined path, making sure just when you start to believe you are doing good, something or someone will slap you on the face and prove you are an idiot.
Why doesn’t life stops to talk, explain give a roadmap; which freeway and what exit to take.
Why doesn’t it cut me open and change from inside whatever needs to be changed and fix everything that needs to be fixed. I cant be pretending to be what I am not. So change me completely; mold me like a lump of clay as per the requirement of the world…once for ever…even a period is good.
I am waiting for god to start the tutorial classes for life…..
