The air is carrying the fragrance of rains. the mystic aura.
I felt nostalgic last night for some moments. Wanted to be with mom. wanted to hug her. knowing that we're always connected through thoughts, was missing her.

wondering why isn't it raining the way it should've been raining..

something from Rumi, was reminded of it while talking to a friend on phone.

Come, Come Whoever you are
wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving
Come, ours is not a caravan of Despair
though you've broken your vow a thousand times
Come, Come again -Rumi

An Evening's Impressions

On an evening like this, quiet, Soft, smooth and scarlet hanging flabbily out of the blueprints of a humdrum day of early summers Dirty as I roved in the porch watching blue herons serenading on the green branches of the Mango tree, the thought that clicked me first wasn’t of yesterday’s memories, or today’s accomplishments or tomorrow’s clear-cut charts or of the meadows full of green rain-soaked grass with heaps of moss gleaming in moonlight, or of where the stars hide in the day but of an ordinary world with ordinary things. It seemed the perfect moment to say a good-bye to this hyperbolized world and its gaudy lights and intemperate facades and to return into the lanes of a wrinkle-free world full of geese and swans. fairy tales slipping out of the pockets and memories from childhood taking form of sounds and noises, into aimless ramblings of the dreams and the magic-filled nights, which followed the motion of the stars and eavesdropped the silent whispers that the gasping earth ma...

home....

Not that I do not feel like home here, but I know I belong to another place. My eyes are almost moist right now at the very thought of it. Two days down the line.. and I will be in my shrine in front of My Gods. If it seems like exaggeration, I wish I had ways to open my heart and show the plethora of emotions flooding inside it. The kind of devotion, reverence, love, affection, attachment, sweetness I feel for home, I wonder if I feel even half of it for anything else. ( ............ I am still, almost. The tears which have not yet trickled down, I can feel the love in them. I have tried writing about them... for them.. so many times. But everytime I try, I fall short of words. Every time I try, I just feel like bending my head down, closing my eyes and expressing the feelings I have for them through silence. It is surprising and may sound so illogical. But silence is definitely a language. There are so many occasions when I speak to them through it, wishing each time hopelessly that...

when the world is bad..

A disturbing happening: I went to mess to have dinner. While I was coming back, I saw four stray dogs playing outside. I sometimes give them chapati in case I find them outside our mess at dinner time. So I brought four chapatis from inside, one for each of them. I tore two chapatis, each into two pieces and threw the four parts at different locations so that each dog can go and eat his share. However amongst them, there was this one dominating dog who gulped inside his chapati quickly and attacked another one (who was relatively weaker), the two fought a bit, the weaker one screamed and the dominating one snatched the weaker one's piece from him and ate it too. the other two stayed off the fight. and I was in a fix. hated the act of that dominating dog. It was ugly, it was plain injustice happening in front of me and I'd no way to do anything against it. Developed instant sympathy for the weaker one and dislike for the dominating one. I went a bit away, waited for sometime hop...
