I looked through the window and saw the world pass by...Thoughts cluttered my mind like leaves rustling,whispering in my head...I looked back at life and saw where my thread of thoughts took me...From childhood I had aspirations and the will to be somewhere..but life always took me elsewhere..In a way I chose not the best...the best chose me..
In love and friendships..I have faltered and found my way ,lost them again only to find it again.There are people with whom I have lost touch,some I remain in touch..with whom my life had at a point formed an interwoven braid...At that point,time and place,the braid was the very rope of my existence.With time the braids loosened and set us free...But in us..the soul of the other remains and will remain till or beyond the last breath.People who have shared magic with you,seen the dreams you see,shared them...can they just become yet another person in your life?
No they shall remain like the mist on the window pane that the morning dew leaves...You wipe it only for it to appear again on another morn...In the mist I shall write the names of those near and dear..keep them close...

On a different note ,I read this quote by Rabindranath Tagore on the shadow
The Shadow, with her veil drawn, follows Light in secret meekness, with her silent steps of love.

Tagore weaves words into Magic carpets and lets you float into a ethereal level...Let me float!

Getting a smile from an unknown person...
A happiness untold...

Yesterday I just took a walk by the garden (an excuse of a garden) that my apartment complex faces.There was this old Chinese lady taking her grandson for a walk.She smiled at me...Just another smile...but it remains in my memory..because it was a smile for no reason...and was very beautiful...

There are some things I cherish which most people find wierd.I love watching the sky,..I can watch it for hours..form patterns on the sky.The sky in its beauty has an unfathomable depth to it.The more I look into it..the more beauty it effuses.A true beauty which I cant hold onto....but will just flow through me.More like the sand which slips through the finger...the beauty of watching the sand dance to the tunes of the wind..To watch waves ripple and listen in the hush to the waves...Too much beauty..Yes the world has too much beauty..It is so obvious that it is not noticed.

In a tiny glimmer of a dew drop ,today I lost myself.As I looked at ,I saw the world ... A moment to look at the beauty around...But in a hurry we are...all in a hurry chasing dreams.The dew drop appeared in vain...The autumn leaf resplendent in its color lies forgotten on the sidewalk.Yes..In vain we chase the world,forgetting the world that exists in front of our eyes...
