Is there something I missed?
A toast to Music!
All Hail the Lord, another God another day
Illusions
Life as we know it
The worst happens and yet we manage to smile, still cherishing the little joys. Have things stopped to matter? Death has become routine. I don't deny it still scares or upsets me. Ill health does the same, especially that of others..loved ones definitely top the list, but why is it that any and all matter. Is it just behaviour in shock? Disbelief? Or we pretend that everything is ok?
The questions are too many, the answers unknown, too few and uncertain. I definitely wonder sometimes, but mostly have stopped trying to answer. Let things be, laugh or cry when you feel like. Become a distorted machine, a badly composed feat of childish engineering or maybe worse that falters often! Maybe, I already have become one!
Am I becoming predictable? Is it just me? Or is it just the bloody age dawning!!
Complexities of life!
Truly revised...Again!!
Why is it that nights make us think so much? Maybe its sleeplessness, or the peace that the dead silence of night brings upon us? Or is it the cool breeze and dim lightnting, the cool and calmness that the night that erodes the noise and rush of the day? Or is it simply the dreams that our sleep induces?
It's a matter of perception. For sure, Yes. Its that indeciveness of the next morning that makes you forget looking at the clock and also forget about the alarm that is going to ping us with the onset of a new day and its challenges?
Life brings forth its varius colours and hues, the brightest at these odd hours perhaps, which the harshness of day make it difficult to appreciate. The hours of dawn dusk and the in between, when daily work and routine and responsibilities are burdeing you down. Its that time of great insight and positivity, which makes us happy and think good thoughts and dream more for more happier moments. It's not like the happy thoughts and wishlists dont exist during the day. But the day time usually becomes a crib fest, where you only think of escaping whatever is happening to you, be it you job, relationships, finances, etc etc. And No! It doesn't apply to only moody people highly influenced by erratic hormonal activity. Its simply the mundane and repetitive nature of the tasks done during the day that make the nights appear more exciting.
Coming from a person who can barely evade sleep at night like many other people who are literally dog tired from the day, appreciating the blissful effects of the night might seem not only highly unexpected but also vague and alarming. Maybe its just a way to figure out and reattempt at finding our true self. It's that eye opener that is attention seeking and thought provoking and brings back that will do can do attitude back on track even if it momentary. But there is always a promise of return of that time; of that thought, of that peace and calm which makes even 'once in a while' thoughts worth the thought.
Dream on then shall we??
PS- Dreaming with eyes wide open, barely open or whilst sleeping are all permitted!
