It has been pouring continuously since a week and the
weather seems pretty awesome. Now that coming from me is a little strange
because honestly, I don’t like rains that much. But, surprisingly, I have been
enjoying them lately. I am up early every morning and it has become a little
routine to sit by the window watching the rains while I sip my ginger tea and
there’s some morning music playing on my computer. There comes a point where I
find myself completely lost in some thoughts varying from about life to myself
to people existing in this world and outside too. It is such a mind chilling experience
to watch the rains and I have noticed it to calm me down a little. When I plan
the day ahead, I don’t feel like getting out of the house. My mind is only
filled with these delightful images of curling up in the cozy blanket with some
hot tea by the side and a good book to read in my hands. It feels more like living
in the moment and experiencing the simple realities of life.
About 4 years back, I had visited the national park here in
Bombay with my girlfriends to purely enjoy the scenic beauty of the forest during
the monsoons. We walked on the path never explored before with not even the
slightest of the idea that we were about to find a site that would mean just so
much to us. It happened that, we were walking over the rail tracks and we could
hear a little gush of a small rivulet flowing nearby. We followed the sound of
it and in sometime the water became visible to us. To get till the rivulet, we
had to hike a little which we were skeptical about in the start but T convinced
us to take it up. We were there and MINDBLOWING !!!!!!
It was a reflection of the sceneries we wrote essays about
while in school. We had never seen such a beautiful spot ever before. I don’t know how but in a very small amount
of time, that place had our hearts. We often come here in the monsoons and every
time we come here we are mesmerized by the beauty of it. Nature holds so much
power in itself that it is beyond anybody’s understanding how and when will it
act! I came by to say a little hello to this place few days go and it has
opened me and my mind so much. I have not seen much outdoors in recent weeks
and when I was here I was only reminded of what I might be missing out on. It
showed me how many opportunities are waiting out there for me and they would be
gone if I don’t take any steps towards it. It felt like talking to a friend
that afternoon. It said to me that things go wrong, terribly wrong. And it is
good to experience the grief of it but not till it chokes you. I am teaching
myself to look at the positive side of the happenings and I am very much at it.
I have realized how really strong I can stand. Surely it is tough as hell, but I think I can
make through it. I have to.
