“Tuduu tuduu tuduu tuduu” the sound of a heart, beating steadily (or so I think), at the normal tempo of about 72 beats per minute. Yet we never realize that it is in very few circumstances, where we experience such a tranquillity like that of the still quiet night. Most of the times, we are so caught up in the adrenaline rush of life that the steadiness in us escapes from within our grasp, only to end up in the whirlwind of life destined by fate.
The feeling of adrenaline coursing through our veins as we near the close of a much anticipated deal nearing its conclusion, would be something to smile about as one walks all the way to the bank & write home about, is a phenomena like no other. Hi there! We are travellers of the sole journey deemed as life chasing “the mulla/browns/chumes/cheda/money” all the way to our graves, it is time we take a chill pill, am not saying you don’t work hard, just try & work smart.
We live a life issued with a one way travel passport, stamped once and that’s it! Let me ask you, when was the last time that you sat down outside your house or at the balcony (if there is any) and just marvelled at the magnificence of the stars up above or the rise of the morning sun or its setting? Take your time, am in no hurry to hear you fumble with your answer. I have fallen as many of us have, a victim of being unappreciative of the wonders laid at our feet by the world & got enveloped on the woes ailing us mercilessly.
Am guessing from the blank expression from your face, you only appreciate the sun when it is drying your laundry, when you are at the beach soaking in its goodness, at the pool party showing some skin or trying to get some of that Vitamin D. Well, you better get your groove on, find yourself a spot and get dazzled, cause the first caress of those warm, friendly rays will alter your genetic encoding on life, leaving you feeling reborn & wonder to self asking, “where have I been all this time?”.
To be bade farewell by the lingering jolts of the setting sun whose companionship has to be let go, inflames from deep within us a small amber of hope, letting us know that tomorrow we still yet have another date with destiny. A life lived to the prime is enjoyed with those held close & not kept hidden like some sort of skeleton in the closet, for when the sun takes a bow from the ghastly events of the day, it soothes the heart like the nursery rhymes sung to a toddler.
Captivating your inner most desires, magnifying the calmness within & leaving you at ease and saying to yourself “well that was epic, yet serene”. In all that crosses your pre-destined path of living, know that it is in the little things that happiness is found.
