It’s one of those days when I am walking around half asleep and the next moment, am running for my camera 
I woke up early – lay in bed feeling the chill morning, listening to the sounds – and decided to get out of bed close to 6:30am. I opened my door to go outside and my next reaction was ‘Wow! Where’s my camera!!’ A super-beautiful sunrise was happening – with the clouds around – it was such a pretty sight.
It’s one of those days you begin your day with a heart filled with praise
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upen that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
– William Wordsworth
A well-known poem, The Daffodils, was one of the poems I read in class X. I found the poetry book among other things when I was clearing up my desk back home. For me, the daffodils are my travel adventures. I can be on my own on a quiet day, immersed in my memories and travelling on my own – once more.
It’s that time of the year when I tend to look back and wonder how different this year has been…one year is never the same as the other and this year too, I did things I’ve never done before, been to places I’ve never been before and met people I’ve never before…strangers turned to friends and friends to strangers….love to hate and hate to love…
Some of the prominent changes …
For the first time in my life, I am living away from home and enjoying it. Yes, it makes life a lot more interesting and teaches you to depend on yourself a lot. In a way, I think it makes you less dependant on others, especially if you choose to live on your own…the way I do, all on my own in a single BR….
I think I am getting used to the fact that friends can turn to strangers as time goes by…. It does hurt when it happens with someone you didn’t expect…or someone you were close to…but then, that is life… so, there are one or two – I wish they had the sense to talk it out instead of judging based on someone’s assumptions… if you don’t know what this means, I am not talking about you….
…to be continued….
