Evaporation of Sorrow

Today was just not my day. The day when I feel genuinely happy. On my way back home, I somehow got into the crowded train. To my surprise, I managed to get a seat after approx 3-4 mins (Trust me.. getting a seat in a crowded train during peak hours in that short span of time is something to write about. Rare thing !) So *like a boss* I quickly sat and thought of listening to music to avoid the chatter which was around me. Unaware that my playlist was on shuffle, I chose some random slow song and it was relaxing. Once the slow romantic track was over, some sad songs were played back-to-back but I being too lazy to change it, closed my eyes and was waiting for the song to finally end. But as if my cellphone had vowed to spoil my mood there came the 3rd consecutive sad song. Okay. Now that was enough. I had no choice but to get rid of shuffle mode. 

That was the time I realized, what if our life is the playlist with incidents as songs. As there are sad as well as happy songs in each and everyone's playlist, same is the story of incidents in our lives. Sometimes when we make simple things complicated, certain complicated stuff becomes easy as pie. I am not the person who thinks into the depth of anything but when I do I always remember what it teaches me.

When I am able to change the song according to my choice why can't I change the way I react to certain things? Why can't I control emotions the way I controlled those songs?? It's in our hands to handle the situation, to gain control over our emotions, to evaporate sadness and live those happy moments once again. Because when life starts getting harder, we ourselves need to get stronger.
