Sunset


A large drop of sun lingered on the horizon and then dripped over and was gone, and the sky was brilliant over the spot where it had gone, and a torn cloud, like a bloody rag, hung over the spot of its going. And dusk crept over the sky from the eastern horizon, and darkness crept over the land from the east

Closed eyes, cool breeze, evening time, sunset as a view, millions of thought racing past. This was the scene I experienced a few days ago. Feet playing with the wet sand, breeze messing with the hair, and all kind of imaginations getting worked up inside the mind. Complete peace bestowed upon me. All the worries inside me started to fade away along with the sun, it was as if the SUN was going down taking all my worries, insecurities  regarding what lay ahead in my life, and all the weights that kept my mind occupied and made me feel heavy for the past few weeks were finally going down and leaving me calm and at peace. I felt in a world far far away from the real place. A place where people wouldn't be judged on how they look, which color they are, how much marks they score. A place where everyone is happy, helping, caring and nurturing. But sadly there is no such place. Sometime just sitting there makes you feel like no one can ever break you from inside, play with your emotions, and you shall remain strong as ever.

Watching a sunset, compels you to dream about all the wonderful things you have in life. Hell!! Everybody wants their life to be perfect, who doesn't? But sadly, LIFE is not perfect. Nothing is perfect in this world. But the scene of the sun settling down makes you dream of the life you have ever wanted. It brings out the unexplained emotions in you. You just lay sitting there with a light heart and soul, wanting this to never end.

But unfortunately things do come to an end, and especially the good things.

NOTHING LASTS FOREVER , SO LIVE IT UP, DRINK IT DOWN, LAUGHT IT OFF, AVOID THE BULLSHITS, TAKE CHANCES, NEVER HAVE REGRETS BECAUSE AT ONE POINT EVERYTHING YOU DID WAS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANTED TO DO.

P.S.-I'd highly recommend you guys to have a moment of silence with eyes seeing the sun going down. I bet it would be the most peaceful you would ever feel.

  7. That's why I love to be near a sea shore, the waves in the water bring happiness with them and take away all the worries with you.... Experience of a lifetime to stand near a seashore and see the sunrise as well as the sunset....
