you pass this way only once ….

to begin again

maaya-jaal being compromised seems an invitation to give up my tag line ‘all world is an illusion… this one is mine’… an opportunity to give up my illusions and jump into reality… perhaps reality will be as beautiful, as mystical and as entertaining… its time to see Life every which way … after all we pass this  way only once…

Clear Water Dreaming…

it has been ages since i have had such a dream… these fragile images that come and go leaving one to wonder when they will come again.

the ocean seems ever to be a part of my dreams… there was a period where i only dreamt of tsunamis… watching rushing mountains of waves, awesome, terrifying… but terribly exciting… i always waited to be drowned… but they always passed me by… or sometimes dark waters… plunging into all that muck.

only very few times i have had the grace of clear, sparkling blue waters… inviting me to plunge… yet, always cowardly i took the boat… ever since i have waited for that invitation again.

finally. such beautiful clear white ocean… why white? i could see the sand at the bottom.. couldn’t see the water at all! touches of beautiful aquamarine blues… do such colours even exist i wonder… hardly a ripple or a wavelet… still waters… and this time there was no invitation… the invitation had already been taken… as i dove to bring up and wonder at the soft, fine, white sand.

grace. moments of grace. one can only fill with gratitude.
