Turbulence of life-The constant quest for unknown.

 Usually when the weather is nice ,I prefer  some alone time out in my courtyard. I do nothing just sit there and stare, either at the moon or the stars . Today was unusual I got out in my courtyard to witness that it was a well lit starry night and moon marked its absence. WOW! what perfect way to unwind myself. I sat crunching my legs to my chest . My straight view was obstructed by tall trees that kept giving me its signals whenever the breeze was about to make an entry however for a short term. The blanket of breeze just kept coming to me brushing my untied hair to my own face . It was perfect. The stars were in their place. The trees had its own merry in making. The gentle breeze kept its motion reminding me of those sea waves. 

At this very moment , came a thought just like a thief that disrupts all our peace. Will I be staring at this beautiful skies ten years down the line? Even if I do, where will I be staring it from? 


Our lives are turbulent just like those leaves in the trees in my vision. For past one year as much as mine was. I was running behind something that i stopped looking at those beautiful skies. Stopped staring at them. I stared at my books and screens if you want to but that wasn't me. That isn't anyone. In this very vast span of life i wonder if there's anyone who pauses to feel how caressing a breeze is, I wonder if there's any one who gazes at the sky to see how encapsulating those stars are. Is there someone who loves looking at that imperfect moon ? I wonder if there was someone who felt the necessity of stopping by and getting drenched when heaven is pouring down. I wish that was me. And I will wish it for 100 more years to come. 

I understand the need for running behind money, luxury, comfort, career and success . But at the end of the day if you find no beauty in any of this that I mentioned, what is it then?

 What if you have all that money but no peace in your souls. 

What if you have all the luxuries in the world and you find yourself at a position where you can't even smile?

What if you have all the comforts of life when you have never faced what it is like to sleep sound?

What if you have a well reputed career and have no day off for your parents?

What if You have seen all the success in your life yet belong to no one?

What was it all for?

And at all of this , today ,at that very moment when stars stared at me for a millisecond I said them "You are all I want. All that I will ever want"
