Reflections

Like the two faces of a coin!!

Like the two faces of a coin!!

Driving on a super rainy morning through Siruseri into the Concrete jungle, I lose myself to the marvelous man-made structures. Looked like Singapore shifted to Chennai. My heart penetrated the walls of these structures and wished I worked there and enjoyed corporate life. Lunch with my friend the very same day in her romantically decorated villa makes my heart long to be a home maker. Such a contradicting thought in a  matter of a couple of hours(seriously, is this from the same person??) Surprises me.

Born in May and a strong Gemini, I can’t expect more. I know I am a twin personality. There were days of confusion  between both the personalities.  But lately I have started living in the moment and enjoying  this as a double treat. Here is to my duality.

I enjoy sitting alone in the beach and watch the waves kiss the shore, silently observing nature in my own world of stillness. I also enjoy the company of friends or even a bigger group of people. I become very involved in most of the discussions in most groups. I can be deeply meditative and overly Chitter Chatty too.

I love any thing trendy , western wear has become the normal trend for me, its kind of, gives me a cool look  but I adore sarees. The feminine look and the feel it gives is always so special to me. So I love both my jeans and saree the same. Vidhya Balan is my favourite Diva ,so as Deepika padukone.

Zumba is my latest heart throb. I am learning Zumba to shed my inhibition of dancing. But I want to be a Bharathanatiyam dancer soon. I love, loud deafening music ,beating through my body, it lifts my spirits .I also love soft music pulling the soul out of me. That’s why DJ parties are so much fun and so is listening to soft music all alone.

Kashmir stole my heart a few years back. A cabbie told me that his village does not have a theatre and there is no television in the houses. I wondered and asked him how they spend the time. He plainly said  just by talking to each other. How I love that idea. I am sure I will love a life like that. Saying that I can’t spend a weekend indoors and run to the mall for some retail therapy.

That’s who I am and I have learnt to embrace myself with a twin hiding and guiding me from inside. Just the acceptance of who we are makes us limitless (writing the random thoughts is challenging as I can’t either stop or conclude). So when did I start embracing myself?? That was not a one day event. It was built over the years. ‘Being you’ is  much liberating and  its takes a life time to achieve it, to discover your soul. So it isn’t boring to live without a mask( ok, at least most of the time). Thanks to Meditation and many good souls that guided me to this limitless state.
