No one has the power to destroy the unchangeable things.

No one has the power to destroy the unchangeable things. Yes I realized this sentence most of the time, even last week too. What it means to me? It means to me, what is happening now is because it has to happen... confuse! For this I like to remember the quote of a samurai "Hojo Nagauji" and the quote was...

"Consider that which exists to exist and that which does not exist to not exist, and recognize things just as they are. With such a frame of mind, one will have divine protection even though he does not pray. - Hojo Nagauji (1432-1519)"

Last week I remembered this quote and felt it's so much true. What had happened to me to felt like this...?

A long journey from home to office almost 30km (18.65 mile), my office has been changed from Tidel to RMZ Millennium, new office located beyond the old one. I need new identification card to park my vehicle inside the staff parking premises; else I need to park in the visitors parking premises.

First day for my new office, of course I need to park my vehicle in the visitors parking premises. Thank God, there was no problem on that day. And I got the new identification card to park my vehicle inside the staff parking premises.

The next day, it was so horrible day when that incident happened; I parked my vehicle in the basement of the office. When time ticks around 20:00 it was an intimation to start. My self and my friend Arvind were starting to leave; I found my vehicle back wheel got flatted! This is where the lessons start. We both went outside to find some shop to get my vehicle normal. Time clicks almost 20:30 there was no one at that time. So I thought to left my vehicle in the basement itself and go to home by a local train.

Arvind said that we can move the vehicle to near by shop and we make it normal, but I said to him "if I move the vehicle, tube's mouth will get damage and I have to change with the new one". Then he dropped me in the "Thiruvanmiur" railway station which is opposite to Tidel Park, clock almost clicked 20:45 when I got my ticket.

I haven't been traveled in local train almost last 2 years in that route. I remembered my old days when I traveled in the same route to reach my office, how terrible it was. Since we can see the train once in 45 min only, but now it has been improved to 10 min, got the corner seat and traveled almost 30 min to reach Park Town station, so time clicked almost 21:15. Have to walk 15 min to reach Central railway station from Park Town, when I reached there, train was just left from the station, oh no! I need to wait almost 30 min for the next train.

When my watch shows 22:00 another train has been started from the Central railway station. Train reached Perambur railway station by 22:20. Thank God, there was a bus to reach my home from railway station. I reached my home around 22:45

My parents asked me whether I went to temple, because that day was a 'Maha Siva raathiri'. There was an explanation. Then finished my dinner by 23:00; went to temple for a darshan of Lord Siva, came home by 01:10 of next day.

Woke up around 08:00, thought it was a nice day. I started to office around 11:00, waited 30 min in railway station for ticket, one more 30 min in the same railway station to get the Train. Damn! it took almost 3 hr for me to reach office.

Then I reached office by 14:00. Went to basement to take a look at the vehicle, damn! my vehicle was not there where I parked. I searched near by places, no way! Then I made a complaint with security, one of the security guy came with me for searching, finally found my vehicle in a corner of parking place. Damn! Someone moved my vehicle with a flatted tube. I was shocked, I knew surely tube will get damage and have to replace with a new one.

Went to puncture shop to make some arrangements, oh no! roamed here and there for nearly 3 hr to get my vehicle ready, got a call from puncture shop: "Sir, tube mouth has been damaged, need to replace with new one, shall I replace?" what else I can do, that time I remembered, if I would have been done this last day itself, I don't need to get all these troubles in last 2 days.

I learned this lesson, "What will happen; will happen because it has to happen". It was a costliest lesson; it took 2 days of my peace of mind, money and even tension too!
