Looking out of the window,I can see various shades of green. Lovely trees of different variety each having foliage of a different hue of green, then there is green of the grass, and also the golf green. I can see the beautiful blue of a very clear sky with floating white clouds. Life seems to have come to a standstill infront of this canvas outside my window.
I have forgotten all those potholes on the road, the miserable traffic jams, the endless wait at traffic signals. I dont think about all the woes of real life. I am in a state of total bliss, oblivious of all that keeps happening elsewhere.
Life can be so peaceful, if one wants it to be.It is for a while I know, I have to get back to reality. But then I have earned this place, at least for now, where I can just sit back and enjoy the lovely colours of nature. Anurag's house is away from noise. Its a place where you dont see people coming and going. Its on a golf course, so the only passers by are people on golf carts, who come to play their game. Again, so leasurely, at a slow pace. They come, wait patiently for their turn, take a shot and hop back on their cart and off they go.
I have done my bit of facing life. That drudgery, those long working hours, that noise, pollution, dirty places. I have been through it all. Its behind me.
I am so glad that I have this opportunity to live peacefully and admire things.The scene outside my window reminds me of Jane Austen novels and the young girls who went for walks, in the meadows. Those thoughts of tranquility, peace and beauty, come to my mind, and I feel transported to that world, devoid of traffic, carbon footprint and what have you!!!
I used to wish to have a place in Mussoorie where I could sit and watch the world go by, where I could spend my time reading and writing- it couldnt be Mussoorie, but this place is simply wonderful and enchanting. I am sure I will be able to read and write here.
This is sheer BLISS.
