What are storms?Climatic catastrophe?In the usual way of saying things it is so.But storms in personal relationships are equally turbulent too.After every storm even in nature,you do have a period of respite that is silent.It is at these times one takes stock.At these times things fall into perspective.One is aware of how one spoke too much or too little.How one wronged another and the cunningness of it all.
How does one move out of such happenings?When one matures,one can see from a distance the senselessness of it all.The senseless arguements,demands and the heart burns.Yes,the heart is burnt unnecessarily when it could have been put to use in so many different ways.'When in doubt refer to your heart',says my Master.I have started doing it and it does give me peace.It does also give me the senselessness of even this writings here.But I am continuing as I want some activities.I am actually waiting to go somewhere where there is eternal rest.
Like Milton in 'Paradise Lost',I too want to move the story forward after the great fall.So also i now understand the urgency in Tagore when he gives the keys to his house when death comes calling at his door.(Geetanjali).I want to say goodbye too to all those who helped me tide over my difficult phase in life.The storm has abated and it is time to take stock of my life.
I shall do so shortly.
Jayamala.
