Nothing matters

                               How did you read the title of this post? "Nothing matters" or "Nothing" matters.?
                               Sometimes in life , we get so wrapped up in small things which,when looking back at a stretch of a lifetime fades into the inconsequential. The irony is that these small things actually add meaning to those moments in life. So where do you strike a balance between being rooted to the moment and looking at the bigger picture ? (As Calvin would say)
                                 Recently , I heard/read this thought somewhere ... Imagine your life to be a long straight line. When you take a closer look , you will find that this line is actually a ragged line of ups and downs which get normalized over time.So on a law of average, most of the things in life does even out.                             
                                So when you are really stuck in a quagmire of everyday issues, close your eyes, take a step back, relax and plunge ahead.Just as in a Bungee jump, life is all about crossing that one moment of hesitation to take a plunge.
                                Just because I have put these thoughts into words does not make me an expert practitioner of these philosphies in life.Like everyone else out there , I am an eternal student and still learning ...

P.S. If you ask me what point I made this post , it amounts to nothing. It is just a collection of  totally random thoughts to clear out the clogs and kinks in my thinking process..
