The Bell's ringing


I am not sure whether you have been acquainted with this before, but certain events have made me realize recently that almost everything in life follows the bell-curve. They start off from null to reach a peak, but as time progresses, they plummet to reach a point where you once started. It can be your likes/dislikes, your relationships with people, your performance/efficiency, etc. The list is unending. Although a perfect conundrum prevails on the fact where the graph goes hereon. Its for us to decide, or is it?

if its true that life follows a bell curve its upto you to decide where is your peak and where you start to go down... we havent reached our peak... just delay the mean... life isn't so hard

I believe in a similar phenomenon. That things start together, move apart and then fall back together. Like the bell curve together with its mirror image about x-axis. Found it to be true in many many things.

@Tornado: Although we have a little control upon the mean and the standard distribution of the curve, but tell me what do you do when you know that mean has already passed?

@Aniket: I haven't really thought about the phenomenon you have explained. May be that works too!

how do you know the peak has passed maybe its not a gaussian curve but a saddle :P

dont worry be.. ups and downs are a part of life... you cant expect to be rising all the time... just take what comes to you with good spirits and make sure you learn from the experiences...

True nothing in life remains at a high forever. One can also view it as bad things coming to an end
@ Arjun: agree about the sine curve thing, though often mine seems to resemble an impulse train of very high frequency :-|
