Gratitude!

You are my teacher. You teach me in the simplest form and in a very indirect way. We meet each other almost every day, but we never talk. Of all the things you have been to me, here are some. You taught me not to be odd. You taught me patience. You taught me inseparability. Whenever I used you as a weapon to irritate others, you taught me about people. From you, I understood the way of life. You made me realize how possessive I have been/am. You made me get addicted to you. You caused pain in eyes and warmth in heart. You made me know my level of concentration at any given time. You gave me sleepless nights and at times irritated me with your entropy. I understood that the time we have is confined and the moves we ought to make are to be made with utmost care. I understood that, in this process people will come and contribute their moves, making the game tougher and rarely easier. I understood that it is not important to gain but the way you gain, the time at which you gain and the relevance of your profit at that particular time is what is going to count. I understood the power of experience and learning. I understood that one need not be at the center to attract and a lot can be achieved by staying silently at a corner. I understood that in life opportunities may present themselves twice, but it is better to do the best in the beginning. I understood the way carelessness led to blunders. I understood the saying “Work while you work. Play while you play” better. You taught me so many things that I find it embarrassing to type all of them down. So I end it here. Thank you 2048!
