Today I just saw one post on orkut status update
"it's all abt timing chotta sa chand bhi Suraj ko grahan laga sakta hai"
English translation for the above is
"Its all the matter of time that, the small moon also can hide the big SUN at the time of eclipse".
Being a Hindu religion follower, I see eclipse as a sign of bad luck, and I wanted to write a pessimistic criticism for the above message and now I landed up writing this blog.
But I would like to give the brighter interpretation of this first. I hope who ever posted this must have the intention of saying this:
"Its just the matter of time, if you think you are small, insignificant, and worthless in front of a Mightier's and famous. Its not your day or something which is making you low. Then you should look at the brighter side that, you will surely get a chance to show your talent and at least once in life you would be able to overshadow the mightiest and if you are lucky enough the world will be curious to see more of such actions from you in future, just like the astrologist see every eclipse as a chance to get more information about moon and sun. And you should be always prepare for those times, and make your best attempt to overshadow them, so that the world can see you".

Well I wrote a lot in favor of the message. Now my mind set is also has changed and now I don't feel like writing my pessimistic view of about this but for the sake of mentioning the other side of it I will write a sentence or two about it
"I see this as there are the times where you see the betrayal of the one who is closest to you and the seeker of help from you. As in the case of moon, who is from the same family of SUN, as we most of the time acknowledge SUN and MOON for giving light in day and night. But you can see the irony of betrayal to SUN by MOON, who takes the credit of providing light in nights, which he always borrowed from SUN. I would say his existence is because of SUN. But you can see SUN has a time where he is betrayed by his closest buddy MOON, where MOOON tries to overshadow the light of sun. And rest of the story can be built up from this point"
