The Saddist !!!

Time is a saddist. It will make you await the moment you have been expecting, sucking up all your energy. And the moment goes away just like that, and it becomes past very easily like all that happened happened ages back or was a dream. Nobody can guess whether time runs fast or slow.

I am at the airport now. I cannot say if I have been waiting for the moment to fly to the US, though I have to. But time had made me blind until before this moment. When I open my eyes now, I am sitting in an air plane ready to fly to a place far far across the oceans and from where my loved ones cannot hear me. Time did not let me learn that.

Let me close my eyes now, and when I wake up.........

Happy Valentine's Day !!!

I was thinking every now and then from the morning about the opening words for this post cuz this is a special post on a special day. I was sure how to end it, of course, with a "Happy Valentine's Day". Considered to be a very special day for those with mates, it is on the contrary a day of mourning for those still holding rose in hand.

That was not the special beginning I wanted to give for the post. Anyway, I have started. A general important information about the day I would like share is that it is a day for spreading an air of compassion. It is not the way it means now. I cannot wake Saint Valentine and present him for verdict.

Anyway, my wishes for a good time for all those with mates (girlfriends). And for those who are still holding a rose with hope, enjoy the day with the verses from Mahakavi Bharathiyar:-

From nowhere in this world will you get such words of love and pain it causes. And ironically, the words are the consolation themselves, and you can rejoice with that this day. So Happy Valentine's Day, and spread compassion.
