That priceless question

"... there I was, faced with the unenviable task of having to say a 'yes' or 'no', well, almost immediately.

If I said 'no', it would destroy my future as I had envisaged it to be... Those dreams would be over...finished...khatam...with that one word- 'No'.

If I said 'Yes', it would destroy the very essence of my life thus far!

I tried asking the intellect. It shut its doors and played deaf.

I sought suggestion, then, from the heart. It stood there- as a meek mute spectator.

I closed my eyes and did the only thing I had the power to do. I trusted God with my future uncertain, opened my eyes, and said.... 'No'..."
