Psychedelic

The silence is deafening. No wind is coming in through the open window, not in any gaping hole. Colours faded to gray around the room. The world seemed to have stopped moving, and nobody seemed to have noticed except me.

DropsOfAugust

The music plays loud in my head, but still I can hear the trickle of the rain. It must be the 8th month again.

August always was full of surprises since I was a kid, but there always would be most special in every year - this I make it a point to have. I am aging a notch again soon, and as usual, I seem to have grown a lot than I should, emotionally, psychologically, and a lot more "-ly's" except physically. It must have been a long way.

One thing is for sure though - It will be rainy. I want to share a secret and that is, that I have never had a birthday that did not rain. If the exception happens this year, I should well be prepared.

But it's not always good news. Rain comes in with thunders and lightnings, and sometimes, it's hard not to get hit. But at the end of the day, what's important is not who got hit or not, but how one was able to surpass the day without hurting anybody else, and was able to keep the faith, and the next day will see the rain coming and feel blessed.
