Uncertainty

 Uncertainty is a great feel in my opinion. Just look at the monsoon assailing us in the month of October. How very uncertain is the time it would rush in to our schedules, right? In fact, the only thing predictable about it is its unpredictability.

Yes, without unpredictability, life would be thoroughly boring. Routine does get on to our nerves. At times, it is necessary to break it. Thus re-energised, we can rush back to the humdrum routine reality.

Necessary, however, it is to remember that uncertainty can be fun only now and then.  If repeated, it would plain be boring. Look at the monsoon itself. It is getting on everyone's nerves because by now its unpredictability is indeed predictable. 

Imagine what would happen if everything were to be predictably unpredictable or certainly uncertain. It would not merely be boring. There would be certain chaos. Look at the way the traffic is a congested chaos the moment the signals stop working. 

Sure the traffic is mad even with the signals are "in operation". There, however, is a method in that madness. Even then we tolerate it with umpteen grumbles simply because it is unpredictable only now and then.

In other words, uncertainty is acceptable only when it enters our life at certain rare times. The rhythm of life can be enjoyed only if it is a-rhythmic occasionally.  The best example thereof would be our heart. If and only if we miss a heart-beat very very rarely, it would be certainly tolerable, right? That principle runs the very universe. So better continue to believe in certainty which would make our uncertainties meaningful and attractive!
