I truly believe that if you have sown the seeds of desire, there is no way that life wouldn’t give you an opportunity to reap the fruits of it. The choice then is personal: whether you want to see those seeds develop or stunt their growth or even uproot them. The choice is always given and the choice is always yours.
Ayushman

learnt that one should always follow one’s instincts. No other factor should influence your decisions other than your conviction in the script. The script is the king in our line of work.
I have learned a lot from my failures, and I am sure I wouldn’t have been half as sorted if I hadn’t. As the lines from Emily Dickinson’s poem Success is Counted Sweetest say: Success is counted sweetest By those who ne’er succeed. To comprehend a nectar Requires sorest need.
Beautiful lines
