Har Har Gange

Its green, its deep, its freezing cold and i havent felt better in a long time.

Call me superstitious or crazy, but as i float in the magnificent waters of the Ganga, i cant help feel how great im feeling. The flow hitting against my skin just feels right somehow.


As every wave swallows me, I feel like it is spouting out a new me, taking away with itself all that is not me. Every gush of water that hits me has taken away with itself all my weight, all my disease, all my pain, all my malice, all my envy, all my pride.
Every rapid I emerge out of, I feel like I am a new person, a better person. I am lighter, more alive, awake, grateful, open, free and happy.

Rafting and swimming thru the ganga has to be one of life's most irresistible experiences. It is 'The Ganga' after all.

Like I said, may be its all in my head... but I can feel it in my body... and It feels so good.

Cry

Plugging out...

Why is it that at times when you are by yourself, you just want to cry...just break down and let go, for no apparent reason..

Is it that through living your life, you choose to ignore all the hurt you have gathered and in these moments, you just overflow since there is no more room left to store it away?

Is this the reason that we're so scared to be alone? Because everything we have tried to forget, is actually not forgotten, but just sitting right there where you left it. Its just waiting to strike back.

Wish i knew why right now i just want to cry..

Plugging back in...

On road humour

Im stuck in a traffic jam for several minutes now. My left indicator is on, but when has that made any difference.
I guess i should consider myself lucky that my waiting time has still not reached the average of one hour on delhi roads at peak time.
Im patiently waiting, trying to find some humour in the situation, when i see it.. Delhi MCD's sense of humour, right there on the pole..
