Somewhere in the distance

When I look at the reflection of myself in the mirror I see a girl who is drifting towards an abyss and there is a dark chasm extending in every direction around me. In this fast paced world where everyone is moving at a break neck speed to achieve their perception of happiness I feel I belong to an ancient era (my thoughts wise)!! Sometimes I feel I am not LIVING enough. Meaning – I feel like I am an entity that is just THERE (existing) but not living, living like it’s the end of the world and I don't have to give a damn about anything or anyone. Do all the mundane things that bring a smile on my face, but something stops me from doing it. May be some day I will start…

    # Walking slowly when it’s drizzling.

    # Breathe deeply in a garden of wild flowers.

    # Sleep on the terrace facing the night sky and enjoying the breeze gracing my face with soft music playing in the milieu.

    # Laugh loudly even when it’s considered inappropriate just because it ll bring a smile on someone’s face.  

    # Speak loudly just to annoy someone.

    # Gift a stranger something just because you feel like it.

    # Apologize to your parents often when you are wrong.

    # Open the door with a smile however frustrating the day was.

    # Walk on a beach with water lapping at your feet and sun sinking slowly with shards of light spreading into horizon.

    # Sing at the top of your voice in the bath.

    # Slide down the steps when no one is looking.

    # Sleep sitting on a dusty floor between book shelves in a library.

    # Call and wave at a stranger on the street like you know him from ages and then pretend it wasn't for him.

    # Jump in the puddle of rain like a small kid.
