Had a bad day ?

A bad start to my day would be looking at the most unfortunate of things happening or which might have happened during the night. I watched a car get hit by a truck ! Very unfortunate, for the people in the car as well as for me. Or was it ? The thought stuck in my mind for a while, then my friends started talking about something different which swayed me from the thought and i forgot completely about it. As the day progressed, I learnt that the results of the previous semester were out and that we could collect ours from the department office. Running to the office I again remembered the incident from that morning and was worried if my result would be bad. I was relieved only after I received my result which did not show any signs of bad. Maybe God did not plan any bad for me that day, or did he ? There was still a doubt in my mind.

I went back to my class, full of students shouting and fighting as usual. No sign of unusualness. I sat at my seat, talked to a few people, told them about the incident I had witnessed that morning and, given my result, made a conclusion that my day wasn't bad at all. This was followed by teachers entering and leaving the classroom and my mind going hazy over the things that were being taught there. This was usually the case with me. I could never understand what was being taught in the class. I thought about the incident for a moment but then waved it off thinking that this was an everyday affair. At the end of the classes we decided to eat at some place. All of the students agreed to our usual place and in no time, we were right there waiting for our order. We had a lot of fun, nothing special or bad that could ruin the moment. Then I thought about the incident for one last time thinking that it was only a projection of my mind, nothing bad could happen that day and all the incidents following it proved my point.

Coming back home I was real tired, so, decided to sleep before I would start working on my project. I woke up at 10, had the dinner and sat down to start my project. But wait, my computer wasn't starting. Oh My God ! That project had to be completed by the next day. My project was almost complete and I just had to make some changes, but if the computer wasn't starting, I couldn't do anything. Now imagine, you have to submit a project and the day before your computer fails and you have no backup for the same ! Yes ! That was what had happened with me. And I had dismissed the fear of something bad to happen with me. This was God's way of showing that the day was rightfully unfortunate for me ! And I kept blaming Him all through the night for doing that to me.

You might want to know what happened to the project which I had to submit. Well, this isn't a Bollywood movie where the "hero" is able to still finish the project on time. I wasn't, and had to get it from someone who had already completed it!
