Monsoon of 2016 is all set to arrive; I love the
initial showers. Life is moving on with its changed tone and pace. I feel new, having
realized the freedom from negativity and dense personalities in my life. Perhaps
I never enjoyed people who were too afraid to show their good face or bad face
or true face to the world, who were defensive and could choose selfishness over
self-destruction. One thing I have learnt from nature- trees, sky, winds, rain
and our very own rivers and seas- it is better to destroy then to manipulate
and hide for survival, at times destruction is nurturing, it’s a new beginning.
Holding on without a direction is a cheating to the way and the very spirit of the
journey. That sound of the rain is my jacket of winters, my slippers at the
ghats of Varanasi, these rains are my pen and dairy my very playlist of music,
it is my cup of tea and tears. It is my ray of hope when I destroy; it is the
thread which binds my life. It keeps me one, keeps me simple, it keeps me going!
Having said all this, I understand that humans have
their own characteristics, their own symbols and styles. We live in our
philosophical hallucinations with our ideological triumphs in the shadows of
our ego. We eat our defeats and success, but let’s do it individually, never
make anyone else the victim of our addictions as human. Take the space like
seasons take in a year. Divide your personality and still stay one and stay true
to the world. There is nothing wrong in being a weed, in being ugly and
terrible or beautiful and like an angel. But at-least be true. Rain is impartial to daemons and gods. So is
world, so am I! But to a farmer, a lover, an artist, a thirsty … rain is a
messenger. It’s their elixir. It is so because they are not dead and rotten
like gods and ghosts. They need it, they wait for it. They are not the
prisoners of right and wrong but needs and emotions. I love rain because it has
a power to keep world one, keep it simple and keep it going.
P.S- Yes1 Rain is not my religion but definitely my inspiration!
