rains, weather and all the thoughts otherwise.

It rained last night.


 After bearing so much heat that all my watery sunscreen will flow with the sweat before I even step out of the home, it was a relief and more than that, it felt like a new need . I have to get to a place where the weather is as soothing and cool  as it was yesterday and so was today morning. 
It has always been a funny thought about the place where I live. All I need here are  full sleeved clothes which protects me from the stinging sun rays and on the other spectrum in the winters, a full sleeved t-shirt is enough most of the time to  keep me protected from the cold as well. Its just these weather-changing time to get my half sleeved or sleeve-less tops out, and my midi/maxi free flowing dresses functional.

Otherwise, most of the days in summers are spent indoors, while at home or at work, most probably in closed air conditioned rooms with compromised mobility. The only function this serves is that, it keeps you at a fixed place, to complete all your work. Nothing else could have been done otherwise. 

Good weather keeps me going, working with minimizing the cooler's or heater's additions in the electricity bill. Just keep the windows and doors open and it feels like heaven, so connected to the LIFE  outside the virtually real screen where I spend most of our day. 

There is also another thing rains do to us. It feels beautiful in rains. The peace of mind and a reasonable reason for being disconnected from the devices ( here, you'll either find the lights-went-off or the signals-not-being-caught) works wonders. These are the times when I end up thinking about the things that actually matter in life. Evening rains makes me romanticize my life. The sky shadows the colors we rarely witness in my life. 

I love winters too, but to be honest, those are the times of the year where I am having my academic year's final exams and that keeps  me from hanging out or explore. There's a lot of festivities and events and fairs that we have in our city in the winters ( as summers are unbearable to be happy on the roads) and for me, that's the only relaxation I can afford during my final examinations preparations.

The Abundant Room Upstairs, No One is Allowed to enter! #1

There is an old brown dusty chair that sits in the abandoned room upstairs. I didn’t figure out who does it belongs to yet we, the family who resides here on rental basis, are forbidden for using it. Mamma says that we must not enter the room, at any cost. Yet, I trespassed this boundary yesterday, when my dearest cat went upstairs, like she usually does. I didn’t ponder upon this fact as Cookie has her favorite place to sleep upstairs. But upon her no appearing back even after opening up of its favorite food (cats are very strong at detecting smell), a doubt arose. I waited for a few more minutes and when my expectations failed too, I decided to go upstairs and check. The forbidden room was at left, so I went forward and checked the room on the right side. “Cookie” I called out. No response. I called out again, twice, yet the result was just as the first time, that is no response again. I had the bowl of cat food in my hand, whose presence would have been hard to go unnoticed, given...

What if I Owned it ?

I would love to own a bakery. I don't know why but the idea sounds really fascinating to me. Being surrounded by cakes and pastries and breads which are freshly baked or hot chocolates just out of the oven! The thought itself is mouth watering. These tempting thoughts need to be subdued otherwise all my business would run down the hill, in utter loss if I became the prime consumer for the things I intent others to consume . Oh, did I mention to forget crispy yet soft, melting cookies? Well, now I did!  I love to see happy people. Maybe it's something we all could relate and wish to be. Yet, could we  be a part of everyone's birthday celebrations, their marriage or relationship anniversary celebrations or in the moments when people reflect back at life and all they have is admiration of how things have changed for good as well as bad, yet everything they cherish. Can we be a part when friends with long-gone-being-in-touch reunite and laugh at the moments which they thought c...

That's the way I work!

 I exhaled the breath that was captured inside me, realizing that the person didn't intend to convey the news to me yet. I'll get my news.  I don't know how long that's going to take but my mind is beginning to take its troll. I just couldn't wait anymore!  Was the news even meant for me? I didn't know. All I knew was , being patient is the only option to patient.  I have been acting impulsively. Once I decide I want to finish off something, I'll do it anyway, without giving it a second thought. Once convinced, concider it's done. The whole efforts, are therefor, put into the Convincing process. It's freaking hard to convince me to do something. My friends often say, why do you think so much? Why are you so afraid of taking actions ? I don't think I am afraid or I take too much time deciding. It's just, i don't have an explanation for this. If my Gut feeling says I should do it, I'll do it or otherwise.  Following my own philosophies,...
