The day had a gloomy start. I don't know what made it so. The heart was growing very nostalgic. May be it was because I woke up late for work. As I rushed for metro station I realized certain sorrow in the air. May be it was just
my heart playing tricks on me. But soon I realized as I witnessed the leaves falling from the trees. Autumn! I had almost forgotten this season. The yellow leaves of the neem flew somberly as the wind carried them and settled
them on the dark road. WOW...That should make a pretty site, eh? I don't think so...These senile leaves brought a beautiful prose by Waris Shah in my mind...
Aithay kaiiyan nu maan wafawan da,
Tay kaiiyan nu naaz adawaan da.
Asi peelay patay drakhtaan de,
Sanu rehnda khauf hwawan da..
It says as I understand it, in this world some people are proud of their commitments and relations they have made so far, some are proud of their appearances and beauty...I'm like the dry yellow leaf of my tree, I fear even the wind! You can't fight the wind, you are connected to the branch by a very humble cord...a gush of wind and you don't know where will you land!
About two hours of my day that I spent in metro these days, today I spent thinking about how lonely everyone is...staying away from their loved ones...just because they think they are doing what they think is right and should be done...
Usually such moments take me back to my hostel days...I didn't like that place but I never quit because I knew I had to do it. I never asked my parents to visit me because I knew I won't be able to see them off. I never left hostel before my friends left because I thought I won't let them stay alone. I was usually the last to go. Two different kinds of good byes...One that stays behind and promises to be there next time they meet. He finds seeing other go easier. One who leaves and promises to come back. He doesn't leaves willingly but he knows he has to leave.
It's like the tree and the leaf?? WEll, the day has made me nostalgic enough to hear one of my favorite songs...I'm amazed at how it acts on my soul and make it relax...
