Have you ever felt this way?

We were on a trip to this hill top called Ponmudi. We expected green all over the place but were let down. We picked up a place on the hill, sat down, then found ourselves a spot to lie down amidst the dry grass. We started talking about things. I slowly moved away and found myself another spot, not that I wasn’t interested or tired, but just felt like isolating myself. Now this spot was good. If I opened my eyes, I could see great distances (the mountains). My mind was full, overflowing with things that I didn’t want. They were still chatting. The sun came down and all of a sudden the climate was amazingly perfect but they decided to leave. I waited for them to leave so I could come last alone. When everyone left, it was the best experience ever. Never in my life had I experienced such silence. Not a zephyr, so the grass didn’t move a bit, but the climate was cool. I looked as far as the eye can look and not a single person in sight. For about 7 seconds, my mind did not think of anything (yeah, I know it’s hard to believe but it did happen). I mean , for a guy like me who loves to let my mind wander wherever it please, this was different. I was isolated from the rest of the world and my mind was as if nothing had happened in the past 23 years. A few more minutes and I believe that I could have found the answers to most of the questions that kept bugging me. You can try the same. I’m dead sure I’ll never get that feeling again but I wish I do.

Happiness of Immeasurable Purity

Here is a very small list of things which can give you happiness of immeasurable purity. I haven’t done all of them. But still, I wish I could fulfill every one of them soon enough.
1)Try to create your favorite shapes from stars on the clearest night sky.
2)Watch the sun rise melting the morning mist, while you sip on your cup of tea.
3)Lay down on your back on a lonely windy beach when there is a slight drizzle, and look at the waves getting ripped up by tiny drops of rain.
4)Take her to your most favorite place on earth (the one you have already been and when no one is around) and say how much you love her.
5)Recognize every next step you take to reach out for your dreams.
6)Try to make a baby smile at you. That smile is not fake. It is the purest form of smile on earth
7)5 minutes of extreme silence and darkness when you need to escape the torturing, painful routine.
