The journey begins.....................

“The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.”

The tryst with life began one December afternoon when a soul decided to take a plunge into the valley of life. The valley was beautiful, tempting, and mysterious as it waited to welcome the inquisitive soul with its open arms. Little did it know then that it had entered the garden of Adam and Eve garbed in modernity.
The soul fluttered its wings, all set to fly across the horizons. It marveled at the bounties of nature. The soul chose its abode in the flesh and bone of a baby girl which was just about to be born. The soul now had a form. It was no longer abstract but concrete. It could enjoy everything just as the other mortal fellow beings.
The journey of the soul in this valley of life has not been an easy one. It is checkered by both tears and smiles. Smiles always motivate it to believe in itself. The tears can by no means be underrated as they make it stronger to face the challenges thrown at it by the Garden of Adam and Eve.
The soul like many of its counterparts has committed the beautiful folly of venturing into this beautiful garden, at times has eaten the forbidden fruit but its higher intelligence never fails to remind  it of its roots. It knows that it is the part of the greater manifestation and just a speck in this magnificent creation called universe.
During its short journey to the valley of life the soul has come to be known as SONAL. It is trying hard to understand the nuances of this life. Here, in the blog The Kaleidoscope of Life; the soul via Sonal would like to share its journey to the valley of heaven and hell with you.
