Midnight Philosophy

Her: I was reading your post. It's true right. God is within us. In all the good we think and feel, if not do. In retrospection, I have never thought badly about anyone or anything. Maybe I would have hurt so many by my own perception of good which in their perception would have looked bad.
It's also said that good people deserve good things. Take the case of your friend X. She is a good girl right, who used to take care of u, who is always been there for you, even you are there for her whenever she needs you. Then why is it that good people like her don’t get a good person. A million times I have felt that what I want for myself is right in front of me. But there are so many reasons stopping me from getting that. Again, is this what 'Our God' wants for us? Coz if we believed it totally that everything was in our hands, then I could have got what I wanted without having to think about my fate not wanting it, without having to become one more X, who will call you in the middle of the night and crib about her life.

Him: As I understand it, Life is not perfect. We strive for perfections with all our imperfections. Good people deserve good things has always been very esoteric to me.
You might know the kind of person u want is right in front of you. You maybe right u maybe wrong. It’s not the end of all to have a good life.
According to me, in such cases, if its meant to be and want it as badly as the other person, it will come around. Otherwise its just not meant to be, this is what I tell myself at least. If only everything turned out as we expected it to be, it wouldn't be Life. It would be very mundane.
Two people can be very good friends but they can't necessarily be a good couple. I feel.so, I'm not saying it can never happen. There is no guarantee that one way or the other it would be beautiful or misery.
Be happy. Take things as they come. Don't compare. Everyone has his own beauty. Explore it. And you will have a good life. But I do hope you would call me. Not midnight though.

Her: Why does it happen that when fate comes to you, you reject it? And when you want it, fate rejects you?

Him: I'm not a big philosopher or an 80 yr old' to answer this convincingly. But from whatever li'l I understand…
The system is designed in such a way that when something comes there is no sign that he/she/it is the one. We might think that it is the one and cling to it or put it aside n move on. That's the beauty of life, if we knew everything from the back of the hand, the purpose would be lost.
You are never on your own. You are dictated by situations, bound by commitments, or in some case u just don't see it. So you really can't blame yourself for looking the other way.
Learn to smile at these things. Don't worry what you lost. Look at what you gained.
I hope I made some sense.

we think we know what is right for us, and we make a mould for ourselves and put everyone through it in quest of one that will fit it like a glove. But we realize we are wrong and then we search for one that is closest to what we want, but alas, by then much water has flowed under the bridge.
It's a lot easier to have blank slate and trust your instincts to make a masterpiece of what you doodle on it. Everytime.
