I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in the fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.

It is a Beautiful Day!
Today, as soon as I gained consciousness from a brief interval of sleep and waited for my desperate-for-some-more-sleep eyes to settle to the half done morning, I set out to greet the day in a rather usual manner, not realizing what a beautiful day awaited me; fresh, crisp and vivacious! Watching the delicate, frail roots dancing merrily while prompting the crackling leaves to bounce all around, my joy was conspicuous enough to jeopardize each attempt aimed at concealing it, let alone holding back the smile that never abandoned the corner of my lips. Regardless of how others are affected by this weather pattern, I am more than conscious of the inspiration such a lovely weather lends me. While most of the 'One fine mornings' may not be a life-turner, one of these fine mornings surely will make you land you at a door, that will escort you to another world! And despite of the misery walking naked along the roadsides, feebleness collapsed dismally at each corner of the street and deprivation wondering aimlessly in the veins of millions; you believe that 'one-day', the world will be at peace. Oh yes, I often use 'one day' in my conversation. It gives a subtle closure to things, you aren't ready to let go or even to hold on to. For instance, there are so many things I wish to pursue in my life before I depart, and they all are on hold, on the 'one-day' stand! They keep me company on the bumpy rides in the scorching heat and they are even there, with me , when I am trudging on a smooth terrain on a beautiful day such as today. And they look good there, at least for now!
