When All Ends Future Still Remains
There are
moments when you feel everything is going against you. Nothing seems to work. It
was that moment in my life. My close friend did a blunder in her life, the effects
of which engulfed me too in its turbulence.
She eloped
with one of her classmates as she felt their love affair would never be
accepted. It was an undesirable move made at the wrong time.
My friend
disappeared to another world. We had no clue where she went.
Never did I know that her actions would put me in the witness box. Everyone doubted that I was hands in glove with the duo. But the truth was totally different. I was also as ignorant about the whole incident as the other members.

Nobody believed
me. It was hard for them to accept the fact that my so called 'good friend 'who spent most of the time
with me and shared all her secrets with me actually did not confide in me about
her most important decision.
Things got
worse with time. We, my friend and myself had just completed our high school. Our parents
had planned to send us to a good college in another city. But now after this
incident things had changed much to my despair.
My parents
were now apprehensive about sending me alone to another new town. The ever-conscious
parents of my friend too advised my family against the pre-decided plan.
I became the
stooge paying for the wrongs of my friends. There was bitterness growing within
me. I was not at fault.I knew I would never go astray because that is the
quality of a weak person and I was not weak. But whom to explain. They had their own reasons and insecurities
for curtailing my rights and freedom and I had mine for feeling dejected.
Time passed
by. I did not take admission in any college. Although I was given the offer to
join one of the colleges of my city I preferred to join none. This was not what
I wanted. When you are allowed to dream
of sky and stars and then asked to stay on ground, then it is not easy..
I dreamt of studying in one of the best colleges of India and I deserved
it too. I had scored pretty good percentage matching up to the requirements of
the elite colleges but now I was nowhere. It was the ugliest phase of my life.
All times
pass away..good as well as bad. Thankfully my bad time also got over.
Once I saw
an advertisement of a professional course in journalism and Mass communication.
I was instantly captivated by it. I was always interested in writing and this
course had something to do with writing.
It was a sheer
coincidence or ‘His’plan to reward
me for my patience..i don’t know. All I know that it was turning point in my
life. The same day I met someone in my colony who was doing the same course
from a reputed university. He motivated me to go for it.
He also
guided me in preparing for the entrance exam which was most important. With his
guidance and my hard work I managed to crack the exam.
Even though I
felt on cloud nine when informed about result I was not sure if my parents
would allow me to leave the town to join the new field in another city.
Even as my mind was divided into two state..the landline phone rang. I picked up the
receiver. It was my father calling from his office.
“Congratulations
my dear, you have made me proud”, he said.
For few
seconds I couldn’t fathom what he was trying to say as if my mind was numb, not
ready for such words.
“You know
the entrance exam you cleared is one of the elite ones and only few manage to
pass. My friends and colleagues all are congratulating me for your
achievement. I am really happy for you.
Get ready for your new journey”.
The call
ended. I couldn’t speak a word. The world seemed upside down.
Everything seemed
to be falling in its place. I was overjoyed with all the positive happenings.
This was not
what I had expected. Earlier I had just wished to join a simple course in a
good college but now I was going to pursue a highly respectable professional
course in a reputed college.
Fate too can
change if you will to change. Every
hurdle poses a challenge. It all depends on how you tackle the situation. All obstacles
can be transformed into opportunities provided you believe in yourself and
never give up. Hope, positivity and hard work has the power to change even
adverse situations in your favour.
I completed
the course from the college and since then there was no looking back… I moved on in life... full of opportunities, positivities and contentment.
