morning musings

took a rickshaw to attend the yoga class  as early as 6.30 in the  morning. the cool breeze hitting the face, the early morning scenes, the chirping of the birds, the lack of the usual traffic, vehicles and crowds...my heart was feeling light, and i think it reflected on my face, cause i could see passersby looking at me......i remember a similar expression,  when i was lost into the music flowing from my walk man, on the local train,  and one fellow traveler who nudged me had carried the same expression "what are u listening to? can i know the name of the song?....u are so lost in the song".

until i reached a little before inorbit... i am a bit directionally challenged, and get very tense if i am asked to give directions, the rickshaw driver did not know my route, and had asked me to guide him. and i knew he was supposed to take a turn, that lane or next lane, and i wasnt very sure about the lane....and that ended  my light as air feeling. It just  evaporated.

i suddenly WANTED to be clear about the route. i came back to the world with a bang. but i sure realised something.. u are light as air,almost in heaven, when ur mind is blank, without any goals or wants. the minute there is a goal,or a want, u come back to earth.

not a bad learning for an early sunday morning!
