I touched it. It touched me back.I smiled and it smiled too!!! It was imitating my every move. I was enjoying the attention. But soon was irritated. I didn't like this. I wanted something new from it. But no!!! It believes in copying my moves. I waited. Tired, i smiled again. And it smiled back. I hugged it. And finally was friends with it as now understood it to an extent.
The reason i address it as 'it' is that it is neither she or he. It is experience. It is happiness. In other words, it is life. How strange it seems!!! Life imitates your every move. You smile and it smiles back. And your frown is returned with the same. When i try to wait, then life waits for me. My life is my reflection. The way i behave, my life behaves the same. She looks ditto. As if it's my mirror. But the equation between me and my life changes when surroundings overcome us. Like true friends, we never doubt each other but the situations compels us to do otherwise.
How i wish, it were just me and my life. No boundaries, no people, no situations around us. In that manner, we would have never complained, never demanded anything from each other. We would just sit and relax. Watch each other move, help each other grow. And guide each other to what is best, without thinking of consequences. If i were wrong, she would have scolded him, and not let me do wrong. And when i did something good, she would have appreciated me, without being jealous and waiting for too long.
When life and me are good friends, then time too will join us. Time knows what is good for both of us. Time is like our father, who stands by us through thick and thin. And also love, our mother. Love has nurtured both me and life. So we consider love as our mother. Our siblings, happiness and dreams play with us and our favorite game is hide and seek. And this game sometimes create troubles. Happiness finds a tricky place to hide. She is just below our nose, and we try to find her in every lane. And when we finally find her out, we blame her for cheating. But thats not right, na? Dreams is always there with us, but as a silent observer. And I respect him for this.
I so much want other good friends to join us. So that we can turn the ones with bad feelings into good. O my my!!! I love my life and promise to nuture it with dreams and happiness, time and again. God bless!!!
