Every morning when I wake up rubbing my eyes- fulfilled, unfulfilled, ambitious, and dreamy thoughts cloud my mind. Braving them I reach out for my slippers and while brushing my pearlies I clear out the cloud. Splash! Splash again...I start seeing it through by now.
When life throws sudden and unknown lemons at you- what do you do? I generally don't get the reasons behind the sudden showering right away. I start contemplating- what to do with them! I think, think and think. Should I squash and have a lemonade, should I throw them back or should I save it for emergency! I do none. I behave as if I ducked and they hit the wall. Wise or foolish, not known. But tell me again, do I really have to deal with unplanned and badly-aimed lemons thrown at me? Nah!
So after contemplating on things like above, i backpack for the day, get into my awesome shoes and with might and head of a soldier I go into the big wide world to face the day! Please note here that my head and heart constantly have their own tete-e-tete through the day. I stop by at times to ensure that they are not at logger's head. They are generally good to each other. These discussions which my head and heart have all the time, strike the balance for me. I am compassionate because of those dessertations between the two. I trust them and they trust my behaviour.
Hundreds of faces to say hello to, hundreds of conversations to be made- few close, few distanced, and few formal. I jump from one face to another. I look here, there, around, and within. I ask myself from time to time- am I being true to myself, to those eyes looking from behind the wall, to that man expecting work at hundred percent efficency, to the friend who wants to meet me after I shut shop for the day. The little cuddled up voice from inside wakes up from slumber and says- "What do you think so hard, girl? You didn't ever push a soul, you didn't beat a heart to its last beating, you didn't run away from reality, you weren't silent for nothing. Chin up. Look around. Be pretty. Trust yourself and twirl on those dancing shoes like never before!"
Now you know why I don't call my living- Mundane? I am far from it cause it's me who is living it in here!
