the peace of the night.

It is so calm viewing the night sky from the terrace of my home. I can only see the half-moon with no other bright light in the black sky. There are no clouds to give the grey shade to the sky. Of course, the other lights that glow comes from homes underneath the sky.  No noise comes from those homes and the flats of the apartments. they reflect just the light glow. For the amount of time I was there, I couldn't even see a person around. For most of the people, it's that time of the day when they come back from their work, have dinner with the family and have little fun, relaxing their minds from the mess they faced today and prepare themselves for a similar day, the next day. The working class of people might have finally got the time to spend good time with their kids, the older ones spend this time sitting in an open area, reflecting upon the lives they have lived so far. The little ones might have finally got time to finish their homework and prepare for the tests and assignments ahead. For lovers, isn't this the only time to share their life with each other? 

Even thinking everything combined makes me feel so peaceful.

Well, that was on what it looked outside and maybe, just at night, on nights when I take my earphones off from the lecture or my eyes off the screens, or on the other nights when I am not tired enough to get out of the bed to just for the sake of being out, on the nights when I happen to take some time out from the rush of the life.

I wish things were as easy as reading a good novel, sitting on the couch by the window and a coffee. It feels awesome to be in the novel and at intervals, keep getting the views from outside the window.

 Pure Escapism!

Escaping, but from whom?

It's a quite place which I always claimed will make me most productive.  And now that I am here, I occasionally get lost in my thoughts, which is basically about all the issues I am surrounded with. While at home,  I was constantly in search of emptiness, a room where no one ones what am I doing, judge whether what I am doing would actully help me make my future better, to validate the feelings I express. I used to just sleep or try to study in a room locked from inside where most of the time was spent crying till I am too exhausted to do nothing more than needed, sorting what went wrong and hiding from everyone around. I have been there before and after attempts of moving on, the things are back again , right in front of me. Everytime it happens, it leave a hollowness inside which doesn't really fills up. It gets deeper, progressively. I have been shrinking out socially and hasn't been a serious bother since the ones I have to keep with me, are with me.  The previous tim...

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,...
  I can stare at the sky and think about literally everything that’s there, be it connecting the dots of my past happenings that got me to the stage I am. While thinking about it, I feel as if I am narrating my favorite experiences to my long-gone friend. I jump from one experience to another, losing the chain of the story and eventually getting back from where I started. I think about the most practical things I can see in my future and what I’ll need to do for it. At times, I land up making alternate possibilities of how things might have turned out if I had made choices a little different from what I actually did. Sometimes, when I don’t want to think about anything in particular, I get my earphones and enjoy the music and the peace in me with the quiet of the night. Without anything to listen, my head will always be filled with something or the other. So yeah, that works sometimes. I see aeroplanes occasionally. They lit me up. Memories. Dreams. Possibilities. In these da...
