signs--do they exist??

do you believe in signs?

the small signals which subtly hint whether things are to be or not to be...
the ones we tend to ignore deliberately at times even if they are right there--staring at us...
the ones everyone around you can so clearly see and yet seem all blurred to you...
the ones which you know will invite a hundred wagging fingers and i-told-you-so's in the end...
the ones which constantly play and replay on your mind sometimes just freezing everything around you...
the ones you know you should acknowledge and yet ignore...

im not talking about gut instinct here..im just talking about signs..

are you afraid of missing them?
do you dread what could happen if you ignore them?

and then, how do we know they are actually signs?
couldn't a sign warning you of failure, be just something your heart fears?
couldn't a sign hinting of happiness, be just something your heart desires?
what if we are interpreting them all wrong?
there is no handbook explaining how they should be interpreted, is there?
so isn't it finally just a game of guts and instincts---of trust and faith?

and then the more important question--how much do you trust your faith?

do you believe in signs?

Yes I do believe i signs. Though I can't explain how it works but I think you brought it home when you described it as a game of trust and faith.

Faith is trust in itself.



NB: Just going through my old posts when I stumbled on your comment and decided to stop by your blog. It's been a while. Hope you are doing good?

Signs and signs....its indeed a game of faith which can drive you to extreme- happiness or sorrow that is something only destination tells!

This post is so strange..But yet so true... I notice signs the most when I am confused...And then at such a time they do little to ease my confusion...It all becomes a mixture of signs pointing one way, past experiences and gut pointing the other way and well meaning friends having they own say.... Not that easy...To read signs! :)
