I opened my eyes and found myself in an emerald web…a jungle...the only thing that surrounded me was silence…I looked around trying to figure out where I was…fretful and amazed I started to sprint…the impulse of survival kicked in and I began to look for a way out…
I ran and ran and ran some more…no getaway…no reprieve…weary and worn out I looked towards the heaven for a little aid from the almighty…
The sky was carroty in shade…the breeze was placid and comforting…
I noticed the trees, the leaves and the meadow beneath my feet …all of them sheltered by the morning dew…the intensifying waves of the sun made them look like diamonds…dazzling and striking…I kept my hand under one of the leaves to seize one of them…
It was dancing…moving from side to side of its flooring – full of life…while I waited…
Alas! ...it ran out of surface to amuse itself and surrendered for the inevitable…all this while my eyes became wider with eagerness…and now the moment had arrived…
It jumped out of the elevated tip and leapt towards my palm…shinning…I wish I could have frozen that moment in time to really savor its magnificence…
At last it landed…what I felt was something inimitable…a slight chill…my hand engulfed in its fresh and damp embrace…it had touched me by its sacrifice…soon my anxiousness was over…and so was my dream!!!
Everyday our lives are touched by millions of such precious moments…
However we don’t realize that what surrounds us is not wretchedness, detestation and melancholy,…what surrounds is actually…happiness, love, laughter, hope…
When a mother sees her new-born for the first time– her eyes are drenched with happiness…she has found her rationale to endure…
The laughter that all of us share with our friends…its eternal…echoing across time…ready to make us laugh again when we call upon it down memory lane…
And when the world seems to have turned its back on one…a sweet whisper from a sweetheart is all one needs to fill the air around with love and hope…
“A plain smile…a loving gesture…a simple touch is what I need to take me to my heaven”.

it is sometimes the smallest of things that help us to come to the strongest of realisations. most meaningful ones. :) like the analogy drawn in. like i said, keep these coming!
ReplyDeleteSoumitro...u definitely met my expectations wid dis 2nd wonderful post...Fact...Everday we r touched by billions of special moments..but den we miss out on dem coz we 2 busy runnin 4 our set task..n in dis we loose d very essence of life...d people who care so much 4 us..only few souls can easily identify some little lies in ur smiles & some more truth in ur tears..Never let dem go 4m ur lyf..n we will find ourselves 2 be d most blessed soul on d planet...pleasure reading ur blog...waitin 4 ur next post....anxiously!!
ReplyDeleteSo true :)..simple things in life is what keeps us sane..what we tend to ignore everyday as "usual" is what becomes so extraordinarily special when we sit to ponder over it..indeed!! a simple "hi" or a friend's shoulder is all that matters when life gets to you..
ReplyDelete"The laughter that all of us share with our friends…its eternal…echoing across time…ready to make us laugh again when we call upon it down memory lane" so damn true!!
we dont realise but it actually are these very little meagre unseemingly important moments that we treasure our whole lives..all it takes is a while to ourselves..when we could sit and think and be grateful for all that we have..
brilliant work !! i am just....!!! no words :) the best part is how you go into the finer details ...lovely :)

ReplyDeleteur words were more of a realisation.....realisation about the rare, unusual and infrequent things which happen daily but are unseen and overlooked....insightful recognition of contentment n bliss through ur words is all i have to say...
