Epiphany...

It's amazing how sometimes, when you least expect it, one of the little things happen whih change your entire perspective on life. It's at moments like this that I realize that the little things in life, are in fact, what make up the larger things in life. How a simple thing such as getting up at some unearthly hour of the night to get a glass of water could be one of the many events that act in an almost conspiratorial manner to further some greater cause. This isn't just ranting here, it's experience.

Each day passes by, almost identically without much variation. In fact, we seem to be slaves to a certain routine. Just when this routine seems to become everything to us, something or the other happens to drive the proverbial stick in the wheel, drastically changing everything we seem to fall back on. It's events like these which, when analysed, seem to culminate as a result of seemingly pointless decisions we may or may or may not have made. It's quite amazing. The only possible outcome in this sudden change in our lives, is more than just a change of perspective or thought. It's a change in who we are. A change in who we become. A change in how we do things. A change in how we deal with life as a whole. These moments are revelations. The little things in life, turn out to be the not-so little things in life. In fact, it is these, seemingly meaningless events which acquire a divine form of revelation personified. Truly epitomising an epiphany.
