mmmmm...

It has been a while since I have mused or thought of anything else apart from the delicious whirlwind that life has come to be. Do I want to wake up from this dream? Perhaps not, or perhaps calling this 'state' a dream would be unfair, it is as real as it gets. Right?

Often times a particular state we are in becomes the world for us. And everything else that surrounds takes on a hazy garb. You know, like when you focus while shooting photographs? The backgrounds are hazy. So certain things in life, take on center stage. And you let them, because they mean the world to you. If the state is delicious then it can take you to places you have never been before. Do I want to be taken to such places? Yes, I do, as earnestly as there can be a wish... So as I embark on this journey, I am a bit hesitant. No... wait, hesitant would be the wrong word, not hesitant anymore because the first trepid steps have already been taken. There is however, this strange alchemy of apprehension and excitement. That at times makes me take one step back and re-assess my steps only to lurch full force and run, because I don't want to miss that train. It's a brand new joyride and I don't care where it takes me, perhaps because I like the journey so much and I want it to last forever... Despite that irritating voice in my head that connives and cautions me at times and sows seeds of doubt... how can good things happen to me? Am I not given to soaking my soul in the dark, alone? So is this 'dream' an accident? Is this how it should be, exactly how it should be... And yet again, I snap at that voice and shut it up and continue on my journey that takes me through lands lush and green, basking in sunshine, drenched in rain, rainbow crowned; where fluffy clouds strut across vast blues and I can lie down and gaze at the vast black decked with sprinklings of twinkling stars...

Okay, enough already! Need to get back to work and resume the joyride ;-)

Have a lovely weekend you all!
