I dont exist....I live...

If you have made your absence noticeable, then you ve succeeded in making your presence felt. That s when you live, not merely exist.

So many thoughts flowing in, but nothing stays still. The mind is reeling at the rate of 100 frames per second. But, I am enjoying every moment of it. After a hard week, many people would like to party hard. But I would like to spend my weekend in a quiet manner. I hate anything that comes in the way of my weekend. Those 2 days are the days I look forward to, to spend with myself and rejuvenate my soul. I loathe parties. I loathe the artificial atmosphere. I loathe the way the whole place is filled with smoke and sweat (added: 25th Apr: and the innuendos - courtesy The Practical Idealist).

I have learnt to live every moment of life. Today, this moment, is not going to come back. So, isnt it better to enjoy it while it is there?

I have woken up to the sound of birds chirping away and inhaled the sweet smell of flowers in my garden. I have spent a weekend with family (after saying No to a party). I have looked at myself in the mirror and felt a sense of satisfaction. I have enjoyed getting wet in the rain. I have felt the smell of the earth just before it rains. I have the time to enjoy the smallest of things in life.

I have looked over my shoulder to see what I have been and what I am now. Definitely, a much better person. I have friends who are friends in the real sense of the word. I have a partner who loves me much more than anything else. I am able to love him unconditionally. I have a life which I want to live. All this because, I am living my moments, not just existing.

If you want to live, then, let nothing else prevent you... after all, it is your life... :-) Enjoy !!!
