Life as a train journey

Okay...this is from my recent train journey...
Go easy on me..haven't written in a while .. the sword has gotten a bit rusty..
Will try to post more often though..
{WARNING : Reeeeally weird stuff ahead}


So, we come back to the story...Can we see life as a train journey ?
Say the departure is when you are born and the final stop is death.
Now the stations in between are milestones in your life.
Say 10th, 12th, college, marriage (maybe if its a slow train then an occasional divorce :P) etc.
Not the point..
Now the train slows down at the curves. These are the turning points in your life where if you have real passion for something you have to take a leap of faith out of the cushy train seat and jump towards your dream. To do that though you require a lot of courage. And also if you do you will be hurt in the process. But you will be saved from the destination of the train that is death and will be remembered eternally.

P.S. : If you mock me, I will delete the comments...have a nice day all.

PAF and god

Yeah...I know...weird title...Ditch that..
Well I was in the team that rocked the train (yes a little of boasting was needed...I like to pet my ego once in a while). Anyways while we were welding it, these strange thoughts ran through my mind.

The welding has a very definitive resemblance to God and the the working of this world.
Consider the bright spot at the center. It is like god, doing all the work but no one dare see it with their "mortal" (:P) eyes. But here comes the good part.

The sparkles that fall all around on the floor are like this world, a byproduct of God's actions...sab moh-maya hai...but they are pretty. We get caught up in that and never look or try to look for the source.

Now time for a poorly construed what some might call as a joke :
"The lesson here is do not go for the binaries. Always look for the source. That is where all the action is.."
