When Procrastination Met a Clogged Drain.

For months, a leaky window during monsoons had been mocking me, rain after rain, it made it to the top of my to-do list but never to the done list. I kept procrastinating.

Then one fine rainy day, my bathroom drain choked. No more delays, I had to call for help. The plumber came, fixed the drain, and to my surprise (and his credit), also sealed the leaky window. Two long-pending problems solved in one unexpected sweep. I took a deep sigh of relief, soaked in quiet satisfaction.

Funny how life forces your hand sometimes and in doing so, clears more than just clogged drains. Maybe that’s the secret: the universe nudges us into action when we least expect it, and everything else just flows from there.
