Coffee

Sitting in the morning breeze with a cup of coffee in my hand, looking at the lush beautiful green bounty in front of me, my mind as always travelled to the mystical land of fairies and demons. One thing always intrigued me - why are fairies fairies and demons demons? Why are the demons perceived as bad and scary whereas the fairies as beautiful and angelic?

What if the words we're interchanged somehow and were meant to be the other way round? Why? What if you met a beautiful demon?

What if I was in that fairyland? My life would have been different from as it is now? "Fairyland" as they say. They might have jobs to do as well, not only romance or some war, fighting for living rather than a throne. Things would have been different I guess, I might have felt happy from within just because of the fact that I am in the dreamland. Well, I don't think it's fair anyway to go to a faraway place just to feel contended.

This sprang up the question-why can't I be happy here....in my own world? Maybe I'm pushing myself too hard, not giving myself space to be happy, not enjoying the things I should, like this lush beautiful green scenery in front of me. Maybe I have held the noose too hard which is stopping my heart to wander the way it wants. I want sometimes to just stop and take a deep breath of fresh air, sit in the middle of the road and look at the sky, the clouds, the sun, the moon in silence, take myself out on a date, spoil myself with chocolates.

It doesn't mean stepping out of the real world but actually in your own world, not the world someone else created for you - the one you hold the noose of and the world that gives complete control to you. Maybe that's where everyone's demon lay - I am in someone else's equation making them happy whereas I should be in my own equation making myself happy.

These are petty little things that make me happy. I don't need anyone to pamper me, I can treat myself well and that way I will be happy.
Well, then what makes you happy? Tell me in the comments below.

The Trip

My first ever trip started from my home town in Guna. Guna to Indore then Indore to Jaipur and to the destination finally, Banasthali. The adventure started as me and my sister's head out for the bus stand, okay FYI I have motion sickness and a journey of almost 12hrs from the bus was already a misery. At 10 pm at night on 18th of Sep, while we were boarding the bus, my ironed white top and the bag I had recently washed was smeared in muddy rainwater from the rope another bus driver was using. Uh! Whatever I cleaned my hands and boarded the bus in those same clothes, and they still lay in my cupboard unwashed 😂  Yeah. Me and my sister chatted for a while, I had a lower seat and hers was upper. She told me never to book a lower seat on a bus because you'll never get the beautiful picture of nature, so I seized the opportunity and took the upper berth :p.   The City Lights at the night kept me from dozing. We were travelling to Banasthali, Rajasthan to attend my sis...

If only I would have realised earlier......

I woke up from the sound of a thud. Tears all over my face. I quietly glanced around everyone was sleeping peacefully. Maybe it was the sound of a vehicle passing by on the road facing my house. Now that I think about it, it was a dream I guess... But I just can't remember. I glanced at the watch it was 4:30 am, I still had time to sleep. Tried in vain, I couldn't fall back asleep, as I haven't slept last day as well I was tired and my eyes were hurting extremely. The efforts to fall asleep again were a total waste as my mind kept on producing unnecessary thoughts most of them being what was that dream about and I just kept changing the sides.  It was 5:00 am, that means I have been rolling in bed for half an hour.  So I got out of my bed poured myself a glass of water and headed out for a morning walk which I haven't done in ages and which was also good for my obese body. It was still dark outside, I locked the door and headed out. The way my day was progressi...
