Stress Buster

It was a relaxing Sunday! Across the day the weather was very sensual. Pre Holi breeze is flowing in and out – off and on. My neibhourhood had lost greenery long time back except for the Krishnachura tree which stand tall besides the boundary of the housing complex opposite to mine. The tree is full blown with red blossoms all over it. Summer stepping in steadily and the nature is gearing to farewell spring - with festival of colors a few more days from now.
I desperately turned lazy today. I received all due support to be a laggard for the day and eventually felt like weaving many stories – short and long that pops up and disappear eventually unable to cope with speed of time. The month was overloaded with feminine blasts, courtesy a calendar day :) that makes women suddenly very special in the eco system.

After a long siesta woke up to realize sun has set for the day. Was alone but not lonely. With a cup of tea sat by the window watching the dark black Krishnachura flowers. Aimless kept watching.

…The stereophonic sound from the next apartment unduly encroach the privacy of my room.

“ …Tomaya Hridh Majhare Rahibo.. Chere Dibo Na…” [Pardon me if the language blocks the flow..]. A pauper deepest emotion from the core of the heart kept few musical ripples my room. I promised to be lazy!! The Baul rhythm accelerated me to be lazier. In the dark room was syncing in the leftover of the rhythm when the mobile buzzed..

- “What’s up?” – a friend of mine asked very casually, seemed in a gossiping mode

- “Nothing exactly.” – I was reclining from continuing the call furthermore, however she exuberantly offered “So let’s come down to your place!”

It felt stressed suddenly…

I want to enjoy freedom of being alone for a while. Sleep, think, dream and then scribe, write, erase and rewrite..

Weaved wonderful lies and was amazed doing so. Finally she disconnected the call. I felt good to have done it successfully. All for love and war.. Love for thyself and war against being just social! I recalled a few faces who exchanged view points on “Work-Life” balance on various forums this month. Some spoke of various stress factors and possible stress busters. A few more made it look even gloomy for fair gender compressed in the clutches of a villain named – stress. I observed generally everybody had a converging vision visualizing work, but life remained quite undefined and varied.

Interesting it had been during this season that we had our school exams and later board exams. Hogged a lot to meet the expectation of the moment and slept in plenty to get over the tiredness it incurred. Looking back life remains the same only the syllabus changes. We start pursuing very unique curriculum fit to our size of wish and commitments. Whatever may be the size you picked – Small, Medium or Large life needs fuel to run - choose your fuel and refuel it often.. I choose LAZY fuel! This fuel is exempted of government tax.

Refuel to be just colorful. HappyHoli !!
