I believe there's no title !

I read somewhere .. how important it is in life.. not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong ...

Rain

I remember myself changing my orkut caption to 'Love, mist and rain ' when i first joined DC and came to Vagamon in june... Rain was an everyday affair then... the day started with rain and ended with rain.. at night i could sleep peacefully with the sound of raindrops in the background... and one night when i was very happy listening to the rain , i remember sending a message to kuttan - " Like beautiful imaginary pearls falling on a tin roof.. sound of rain ! :-) "
Well... i love everything about the rain... starting from the growling atmosphere... darkening clouds.. grey... brimming with love... the first rain drops instigating that beautiful fragrance of earth... the lightning accompanied by thunder bolts... the whole thing excites me like none other !
I think that rain is the most beautiful gift that nature has ever given us ! Rain is one thing that inspires.. its the one thing that brings immense joy... Rain is that little pleasure trip that would take us of our tensions and sorrows... and let us be one with nature ! And when one is so close to nature , one feels happy ! May be thats why Lord Byron came up with this poem...

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes,
By the deep sea , and music in its roar,
I love not man the less, but nature more,
From these our interviews from which i steal
From all i may be , or have been before,
To mingle with the universe and feel
What i can never express , yet cannot all conceal.

And rain... in all its essence and beauty .... plays along... drops from the tip of a leaf... mingles with the depth of meandering rivers.... flows through our eyes down the cheeks.... ferments love....
gives meaning to what life is ... and finally , what i told about rain to kuttan.. that rain is simply..... esoteric !

Stories in short !

My Bday was a disaster.. i was really lookin forward to celebrating it but my intution pointed towards me celebrating a dry Bday ...! i mean not the dry day kind but a plain , not so entertaining Bday ! I came all dressed up and pretty ( i guess so, lol ! ) and wearing a new churidhar instead of wearing the usual T and jean kinda stuff was absolutely necessary this time so that it would mean i would look more mature and lady like ! i should 'erase' the tomboyish looks of mine.. and go for ultra feminine looks i guess ! :-) lol ! Anyways.. wrote 3 beautiful exams on my Bday from noon to night in which i have performed wonderfully.. so much so that the respective faculty who corrects it would quiver with bliss!!! :-/
So, the next day of my Bday .. that is April 7th was mom and dads wedding anniversary and somehow we could celebrate it at home.. just the five of us !
Met salini, after a really long time... at the Indian Coffee house again.. but couldnt spend much time as she had to rush to her class! I wasnt that happy ! We usually hang out for longer time periods.. in and around statue... ! Miss those times! I hopped into a bus from statue and got down at pattom.. walked home from there all alone in the rain.. felt good !
I saw this most primitive episodes of friends and had this intense urge to meet my friends.. thats how i planned this meeting at ICH , statue where salini and i met....
Messaged kani too but she didnt respond... saw her in 'kerala cafe' and i thought that her old beautiful face had vanished! She had grown a lot thinner i guess.. atleast her face did!
And im in this 'state of being' where i just wanna run away from the crowd.. probably its claustrophobia....! Wish i could go to kodungallur and spend sometime with appooppan and ammoomma and also see my newborn cousin 'anashwar' and my newborn nephew 'no name yet' .. Mini mema wanted a son and she got one ! she's happy ! But kavitha chechi wanted a daughter so badly but she delivered a baby boy on april 8th ! She might not be happy but i am coz he's born into the first of sun signs and my all time favourite 'Aries' ! :-) everybody loves their own sun signs right? well, i do !
