Shit happens. Accidents are never fun, no matter how non-serious they might be. They freak us out, give us nightmares, and make us question a hell lot of things! And, atleast for a little while, the glass starts looking less than a quarter-full (as opposed to the half full normal pessimism).
I do not know how much you will believe me, but I truly did find 15 amazing reasons why you shouldn't let the accident and the subsequent operation bother you as much as it probably is right now, because, if only you let is, the glass is always overflowing!
1. PRIME OF YOUTH FACTOR- Just imagine what it would have been like if this accident were to happen 20 years from now. Enough said.
2. PAID VACATION- Again, you know what I am talking about.
3.BLOG- Remember the pictures you had to upload and ideas for blog posts that kept being pushed aside due to the humdrum of everyday life. Go ahead, write, edit, delete and rewrite to your heart's content.
4.BOOKWORMYNESS- See, I am coining brand new words for you! Ideal time to satiate the bookworm in you. Remember the contentment you get by curling up in a sofa with a cup of coffee and a good book. I hope you are thinking what new to read right after you are done reading this post.
5. BINGE WATCHING- Reruns of Friends never get old. The Big Bang Theory jokes make us embrace the inner geek, and just in case you do not want to watch old shows again, fret not. We have some awesome shows up and running and more to come along pretty soon!
6. EASIEST HOUSE ARREST- You can check house arrest off your bucket list now, without either trips to holding cells or paying exuberant lawyer fees. Ain't that awesome?
7. TIME TO FIGURE OUT ROCKET SCIENCE- What I basically mean by that is you have time on your hand, and heaven knows what you IITians do in your spare time. I was just assuming rocket science isn't too far off the hook, right?
8.COURSERA- This needs special mention, because Coursera is awesome and I still haven't been able to finish a single one of those. So, umm, you know, now is the best time. Talk about blessing in disguise.
9.METAL DETECTOR MAN- You sure will have some funny ( because strip searching stories are always funny) stories to tell in social gatherings, and possibly be the coolest one around too.
10. SWAGGER- Your brand new style of walking! Gotta love that!
11.THE CLARITY ONLY NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE PROVIDES- For all I know, you have unlocked the mystery of the universe, by which ofcourse I mean the mystery of what 42 depicts! Or are on your way to writing a future best selling novel. Near death experiences also have a way to help the creative juices flow, I hear.
12.PAIN MEDS- You even have legitimate prescriptions. I still haven't watching Breaking Bad, but I guess you know where I am going with this.
13. PITY PARTIES WITHOUT REGRETS- No one can question it. Very few of us get that luxury, dude! Enjoy while you have it.
14. THE WHAT OF IT ALL- Because you know it doesn't take long for the story to go from "I was driving late at night on the highway..." to "I was in a high speed chase at 2am......".
15. MY LISTOPIA BLISS- And finally, this reshaping implant thingy, with a technical term you can't seem to remember is the reason why I wrote my first ever online list, and you know how much I love list. So, something that makes me do a first, can't really be all bad, right?
The only motive for this post was to bring a smile to your face. I know its a long road to recovery, and I also know you will make it. And just so you know, you are the only one who has two blog posts dedicated to you Abhinav Kishore. Get well soon!
