life-stranger than fiction

I have always wondered at the typical manner in which some events keep happening again and again.I am equally puzzled by visit to some places which invariably carry a particular type of experience,good or bad.I have seen this happening not only to self but to thos whom i knew also.No answers to these puzzle. The fact remaisn that they keep happening as if dictated by a magic wand.
I shall try to capyure some of them here from my own experiences.

I shall record first events which shook me most folowed by events which breezed in to my life like a welcome relief.This is ceratinly not an autobiography,Hence readers need not get scared away. It is an attempt not to fathoom the reasons behind it too. It is just to record the way in which the life unfurls itself and how life keeps going in circles.

1997-1998-The year started with the sad and sudden demise of one of my paternal uncles, and the death took place on the day when the wedding bells were to ring for my cousin brother's son.The marriage obviously has to be post poned to a late date.It did not end up there. There were series of deaths witnessed in that year, during which i lost my mother, my step mother, my brother;s wife, my wife's paternal uncles and my aunt's husband, all in a span of 12 months.

The cycle of 12 years went by. Again a series of sad seperations :
2009-10- It satrted with the death of my aunt, followed by the death of an aunt's son, and then the death of my cobrother's father, and to cap it all the twin death of my beloved brother and my aunt's son on the same day.I was left high and dry,There were mournings and more mournings.It is a real puzzle how the death has chosen to strike with such calculated sharpness.

Coming to the good things ,

It was exactly 50 years back when my paternal uncles lived like kings in the twin cities of Secunderabad and Hyderabad.Then the life cycle pushed them to some remote village for their final years. ANA dthen Excaly 25 years back i had the fortune of landing in twin cities to pursue a carrer chosen for me by my paternal uncle.And after 25 years , now ,my son is having appointment and the blessings of the twin cities to pursue something which is dear to his heart.The difference, in my case choice of the city is made by my paternal uncle , in my son;s case the choice is made by his beloved guru and himself.Once again it is proved that the life is in circles.

And then strangely enough exactly a decade back i had the fortune of leading one of the most contended years of life in Hongkong. It was never felt then , that the city will once again have any connection with me whatsoever. Wrong i am!!
A decade later now, the destiny has given an opportunity to my son to visit Hongkong for furthering his interests in the discipline of his choice.

Yes. Life is starnger than fiction and the events in life keep happening in circles..
Let us keep rolling with out getting struck any where!!!
