Silence in the house, with sound only coming from Ac or a fan. That too in a silent mode as I don’t like fans running full speed and making sound. AC also runs briefly. In few minutes, both will be shut down as the weather has started changing.
Waking from an afternoon nap has another level of tranquility. The peace and groundedness I feel at this time is never felt early mornings, as there is always a to-do list then. In evenings, like it’s 5.05pm right now, the sun is in a beautiful orange yellow tone, with sunlight mellowed down, and the house is filled with lovely golden hour light. The temperatures are not extreme, and so is the routine. The dinner has already been made, exercise done with in the morning, so does the dusting, laundry, watering etc etc.
Now, it’s simply waking up, writing a post when I feel like, relaxed walking, offering dusk evening prayers and enjoying a tea, that is if routine permits and nothing catches me off guard.
Not all days offer this. Today is one such day. The house is in order, and so is the mind. The life’s struggles stay where they are and so does the blessings. Only the hands are shaky at the moment (twisted wrists, remember?) and I have to type and retype as wrists movement is restricted.
Mainly there are two kinds of problems in the world. What to do if you don’t have time in your life, and what to do if you have lots of time in your life? Which category you fall into? I am part of the latter, ever since I remember. Now, this in itself can have many layers to sort, but I will leave it right here, till life reveals itself.
