Really felt like writing something today. Some tugging feeling that I owe this... Not sure to whom, may be I owe this one to myself from a long time...
As I lay on my bed this morning - refusing to get up because I had the excuse of having worked late last night - my thoughts drifted to what I've seen/felt/experienced in the past 26 years. In the very long 26 years, I've seen a lot of ups and downs. More downs than ups may be? Most of these ups and downs came flashing in my mind... How happy and ecstatic I was sometimes, and how down and out completely on some other...
Suddenly a very different thought occured to me - If I were to paint my life according to my feelings, how would it look? There would be some very stark blacks and purples. Some - may be very few - bright and pure whites. Some very pleasant greens. Some very free sky-blues. Some very sad blues. Some very bright and cheerful oranges. Some very pretty pinks. Some very embarassing reds. Some very calm and serene very-very-light blues... That would from an interesting spectrum!! We always long and crave for better things - everytime we go through the "difficult" times, we think of some of the beautiful past memories and wish those times would come back. But if I got just one "happy" or "easy" life, would there be so many colors in my life? Definitely not. And it's beautiful to have so many colors! I know that the whites are pure because I've felt the stark blacks. I know the greens soothe because I've experienced the piercing purples....
It makes me thank God that I've so many colors in my life, and for this beautiful realization. May be this will make me crib lesser (now, that's a hopeful dawn-orange) or may be I'll come back to square one (a disappointing grey?). Whatever the case, I now know I have a very beautiful and interesting way of looking at life - the colors and the spectrum of life!! This will sure make a great game - will surely leave a smile on my face when I am lonely and free to think those random thoughts!! :-)
