Don't know where the life will take me in the next few years, don't know what I will be doing and where I'll be living in next 10-20 years. Its all very hazy and unclear. I have stopped planning things because life don't turn out as you plan it to be. Life simply is LIFE and it has its own plans for you.
Still when it comes to end, I see things pretty clear and simple. I see myself in a small neat one bedroom house on a beach. Yes, you heard it right, ON A BEACH!! Vast endless sea is visible from my room through the door sized glass windows. Every morning I wake up with chirping of Sea Gulls and every evening sun sets at the horizon. Spending my days reading books, cooking, sometimes listening to my favorite music. Every evening witnessing a new sunset sometimes hurriedly packing my stuff to rush inside and at times simply sipping coffee and enjoying the marvels of nature. Starry nights with moon-lit bed of water....What more to ask for?
And yes I also see myself making new friends with the loners or groups who come there in search of some quiet time, some soul searching, some peace. Sharing our stories and experiences. I visit the nearby market sometimes for basic necessities. By market I don't mean any mall or flashy departmental store....a simple roadside flea market where I meet people who are not running behind money, who are relaxed and want to live every bit of life rather than running behind it.
Why life has to be so complicated? Why we have to live in this concrete jungle? Why we can't live a simple peaceful life close to nature away from the cacophony of these evergrowing cities...
Mann bole ke rasmein jeene ka harjaana duniya dushman sab begaana inhe aag lagaana Mann bole mann bole, mann se jeena ya marr jaana
