Prayer Brings Victory

When I asked God for strength
he gave me difficult situations to face
When I asked God for brain
he gave me puzzle in life to solve
When I asked God for happiness
he showed me some unhappy people
When I asked God for wealth
he showed me how to work hard
When I asked God for favors
he showed me opportunities to work hard
When I asked God for peace
he showed me how to help others
God gave me nothing I wanted
He gave me everything I needed

Has travelling become my passion nowadays???


                                  Its a long time back since I blogged because of my tight schedule in professional as well as personal affairs. Hmm...well, it is this Sunday night that i've got a lil' bit of time to write something about my recent feeling of an instinctive zest towards traveling. 


Basically, I was a girl who merely hates traveling like anything right from my childhood days, especially, what i mean is the long journey travels by bus, train, plane, etc. But at the same time i was also a cutie pie who always had an invisible bond with the kind of traveling for a short period of time by my car and bike with my dada, mama and bro. I just loved those shopping driving and taking rounds within the boundary of my town :-) (tat was my maximum limit for traveling).

Whenever I was encountered with a situation that I had to travel a long way via bus or car or train or whatever mode of transport may be, i would turn out my face to such a negative reaction and start traveling with all the hatred in mind. Accordingly, for the whole journey i would be sleeping or would be prone to travel sickness like vomiting, headache, etc etc...Oh...Finally, it would be my parent's fate to face a hell lot of troubles b'coz of me for the whole journey. As a whole, to describe my traveling experience in a few simple words, it would be like an 'indescribable cruise to another world' (for both me and the ppl around me :-))
 Poor me, who was lyk tis since from my birth, fate turned my direction of life towards all the things which i hate the most. Yes...one of those is the frequent traveling experiences that I had to encounter in my life since the last couple of years. To be very frank, at the starting, I really went through tough times while traveling by plane or bus or train or car to distant places. But as its generally said that anything will become used to you when you keep on going with it, the same had happened to me too, I guess!!! All those traveling experiences has now really stimulated an ardent interest towards traveling for me now. 
The same long travels which I used to hate previously has now become a great opportunity of many positive matters for me. Be it the formalities of air travels such as getting into the airport greeted by the airport staffs, the check-in, baggage procedures encountering pleasant customer service people, then the paramount hospitality inside the aircraft by charming guys and gals....or the train journey which incorporates the wonderful sight-seeing scenario of nature or the meeting of ppl whom we have never even met before in our life.... or the bus journey where you can freely watch a movie...or a long drive in the car chit-chatting with your beloved ones.... i've realized that all these spicy things of traveling really add good experiences in our lives. 
The preparations for travel is what makes the journey more interesting. As soon as we start packing our Baggies, the spirit of the travel rises in as we take all the important things such as dresses, camera, coolers, passport and all other necessary things for the travel. I was a person who used to take two or three days for packing alone before two years, but now, to me and my family's surprise, I'll just take a packing time of maximum two hours before the travel. What a drastic change! How fate has changed me and my lifestyle!! Really amazing, rite? 
You know wats the best thing i like about and enjoy about traveling...... According to me, from my experience, the traveling time is a time when you can relax and contemplate about different thoughts that are going into your mind and you can even drive into intellectual decisions for which you weren't able to get answer for a long time. Its an awesome duration of time undisturbed by others while enjoying the beautiful aspects of Mother Nature. What i usually do now is just insert my head phones into my ears listening to ma favorite pleasant songs while at the same time praying or cherishing any memories or even planning and thinking about any crucial matters. Hmmm....tats how a girl who was having phobia towards traveling got transformed into a fresh person who really relishes the experience of travelling! :-)
Now i've started to wonder whether i've developed a passion towards travel without my knowledge....just instinctively.....:-)
