Sometimes I like to look at the nature around me, imagining myself to be from a different planet and looking at earth for the first time and I'm awe-struck at the colors, the landscape and the beauty of our planet - one we take for granted.
As huge as my planet is, astronomy tells me that its a mere speck in the explored universe...and I'm probably an amoebic creature (in the vastness of whats around me), leading my own little life, with unwarranted worrying about future, unneeded brooding of the past, while missing the beauty and love around me thats ready to encompass me in its grandeur, if only I'd let myself enjoy my present moment.
Most of us have forgotten the joys of (re-)discovering things. We forget to inquire, question, ponder, wonder...in the mundane tasks that entail making a living, we forget to lose ourselves in awe of something or someone. Oh, what joy when something you've been grappling with, suddenly gets clearer, when the fog lifts, when someone flicks the light switch on.
Oh, how I'd love for my life to be a series of aha moments!!!
I totally agree with you on this, Subha. Life is so simple and yet we make it so so complicated...
ReplyDeletevery true...life is so simple with a whole lot of things to learn,enjoy..life is celebration..provided we make the best out of what we have in hand instead of brooding about the past or worrying about the future..:-)
