The philosophy of my life is I believe that we should accept change anytime anywhere. I don’t think that everything goes with plan so a person should learn how to add up things. So today I would like to talk about the time when I changed my plan for something good. So it was the time when I was planning to visit my home country India during the time of Diwali which was in October and the tickets were quite at a high rate but even though I was planning to go to visit my family back home however I had to keep on looking for different gifts for all of my family members so I was planning accordingly. Nonetheless when I was surfing through the internet I came across there was a notification popped up in my Google Chrome that there were tickets available cheaper rates during the time of mid-May. So that time I thought that why don’t I just change my plan to go visit my family during the time of May rather than going at a high rate and they were giving me 80% discount so that was too much for me and I grabbed the deal and I completely changed entire my plan and that’s how then I started planning according to the new schedule which I changed recently and the cherry on the cake was that the rates were very cheap which already included my return ticket as well and it was so good that I was feeling overwhelmed.

The philosophy of my life is that I believe we should accept change anytime, anywhere. I don't think that everything goes according to plan, so a person should learn how to adapt. Today, I would like to talk about the time when I changed my plan for something good. I was planning to visit my home country, India, during Diwali, which was in October, and the tickets were quite high. Even though I was planning to visit my family back home, I had to keep looking for different gifts for all of my family members, so I was planning accordingly. Nonetheless, when I was surfing the internet, a notification popped up in my Google Chrome that there were tickets available at cheaper rates during mid-May. At that time, I thought, why don't I just change my plan to visit my family in May rather than going at a high rate? They were offering an 80% discount, which was too good to pass up, so I grabbed the deal and completely changed my plan. Then I started planning according to the new schedule I had just created. The cherry on the cake was that the rates were very cheap and included my return ticket as well. I felt overwhelmed by how good the deal was.
