^Where is the snooze button?
A button to snooze my life for a span of 10 minutes, to
let me look at the mirror and just say, “Hey, how can a person be made so
perfectly?”
Good Morning is just a phase now, ‘Hey, Classes calling’
is the new trend. Overcrowded trains and delayed modes of transport. Oh God! Tie
me to the planes and ^Whoosh I go, get down at the destination.
The nasty look is worth millions, and then the taunt you
get for just one line “Miss, may I enter?”
Life is numb, and the atmosphere is dumb, she keeps
talking, and me eyes rolling here and there, trying to use codes to
communicate. And then she realizes that no one seems interested, out comes a rhetorical
question “Do you want me to teach?” to many people answers were ready.
Moving home at a snail’s pace, begging to every auto
driver to just let you reach a place, where you already live, the look he gives
and OH MY MOTHER OF GOD, his “yes” seems like Mercy from God!
Traveling for distance traced by “light years”, we open
the door to the house which the auto driver accepted to drop.
“Okay so your schedule for today is guitar classes in
half an hour, math lecture after the classes, Oh but you seem weak in physics,
so why not take an extra lecture, also you have to work on logs of wood and
transport them to the forest, and if you could, break stars for the living
room, it seems so dark. And if you have a break in between, you may breathe,
not for long. Don’t you waste time!” says the lady who has given birth to a
multiprocessor, and he is writing to you!
But then on the way, you see beautiful birds chirping and
nice weather with good music and you don’t expect a man asking you, “Do you
know the distance of your displacement?” “HAH! Dumb”
Okay but you had these little moments in life where the
person you liked, smiled back to you. You got a gig for something you wished
for. You got appreciated for something unusual. Your hard work was in
consideration. “Congratulations child, you are living. Nice to know this!”
And then you smile, all these going around your mind, but
wait. There comes hugs and kisses by some nice teachers going to consume all
the three hours till you tend to shout “ARGH! Let’s just pass this year? Procrastination
is my idol!”
The building was magical in which the classes were conducted.
When we would enter the sun would be bright and happy, but when we stepped down
to greet in our happiness, it had already gone!
But then you come home all tired and there is your family
asking you, how your day was? Offering you food and treating you as a king,
because you worked for it.
“Aye, these are pillars to my Goals.”
Let’s now experience some gravitational force with the
bed where pillow is a constant?
And if you actually didn’t have a good day,
never forget, you got accepted by none, but the auto driver.
