June Sky
Monday, June 22, 2009
There is something really haunting about June sky. I took this picture this morning. I have been meaning to take a picture but somehow keep forgetting it. The sky was simply beautiful. The momentary calmness and serenity that I felt made me forget the migraine that I woke up with. Migraines are intolerable when there is a annoyance and frustration resides. So today by 10 AM office was pure purgatory. I took up my friend's offer and went out to pick up coffee.I am a little partial to monsoon compared to other seasons especially here in my hometown as the weather gets very pleasant and there is a breeze which hums in the background. I really cannot explain the contentment that I get when I am sitting in the cafeteria staring at blue and white sky and sipping on a mug of cappuccino. Its hard to explain the contentment one gets by appreciating natural beauty. Its not goal oriented, its not because of financial gain and the best part is that it has nothing to do with the person who is looking at it. Its the disjointedness, I think which makes the experience all the more agonizingly wonderful. I wonder if this is what people keep searching for. A state of mind in which there are no conditions to be covered, no hurdles to be crossed and no goals to be attained. It just is. Its as simple as that.
Its already end of the month I think I will be missing this blue-white June sky. Monsoon is set and the same blue sky will be covered with darker colored clouds and that ain't fun.
Oh well, at least I finally remembered to take this picture; something to hold on to for next eleven months till the same nostalgic contentment feeling will hit me. 1 comments
