ahd musings

well, i will be lying if i say that i dun brood abt "signs".. coz, i really do.. in the actual sense of brooding.. on all sorts of signs, which even included the "signatures" (often shortened for convinience purposes as---'sign')!

and now, when im almost on the verge of being blinded by such a vast myriad(ic) kaleidioscope of sign-tic 'fresco', i reckon it is high time i put my brood-cap and socks on!

{p.s.:: this is the after-effects of being absolutely high and drunk on "love" and "serendipity". real deadly combination.. something that even 4 large Absoluts couldnt do to me!}

this time it involves Nature. n the Rains! something which i have ALWAYS loved..something with which i have the most beautiful times and memories associated.
so, this year rains, yes, it IS special.. VERY SPECIAL..
and my romance with the rains (which had hit a low spot since the last couple of years) was again invigorated with this years first drops.. in my all these (almost) 8 yrs of residency in Mumbai, (or Bbay, as i like to call) it was only in my last (damn! it breaks my heart everytime i say "last") 2 months, and the last rains in the city, that i lived the Rains as i'd always dreamt of living it.. standing amidst the vast expanse of rocks on the concretised pathway, with the waves lashing hard and threatning to pull me away, strong and wild gust of winds blowing everywhere, dark overcast sky, to the extent that its impossible to distinguish the time of the day and the twilight by looking at it and getting drenched in the rains, standing just like that. a dream, which WAS realised. YESH, YESH! ♥ and many more additions to it, which separated it from the "dream" that was dreamt for 8 long yrs.. and the realisation was S-W-E-E-T.. it almost reminded me of Jessica Simpson's "will be the sweetest thing".. getting drenched in the first rains of the season in Bbay.. following it up with getting drenched many times after it too..

and now after Adieu to Bbay, when i've changed my locale, my romance somehow was still kept alive.. for a place, for which i'm still to find that resonating chord, that is trying too hard to win me over, i think i have to succumb to the countless "signs" that it is presenting me with..

the first meeting after half of the year, in sweet exclusivity. a place where i know my heart beats.
priceless moments.
first rains of the city. n getting drenched. which, for the first time, was met with approval!!
unspoken and unsaid words. yet saying it all aloud.
being greeted to the dance of the peacocks, the first thing in the morning.

yes. for a place that is trying too hard, i think i should give it to the place.. a chance of romance.
after all, it IS where i know my heart beats!
