Hii Duude,
How are you ? or How good are you must be the question.
Ofcourse who will not be happy in their velliamma's house..I like to imagine your grandma's house to be like the one in Drishyam..Full of trees and that evening weather,small inland roads along with tall coconut trees.If I'm there,I'll tell to them there is someone more cute than you Trees and leaves !! Nothing beats the joy of a good book and good food by the sea shore surrounded by trees in a stormy evening weather.The sound of rain hitting leaves and houses is sweet to hear.Did you know I have an app that produces different types of rain,thunder storm and sea sounds.It's like meditation to me.Anyways this brings me to a small story..!!!
Once upon a time there was an ant who wanted to be hard working and behave as all other ants do.But there was no good fellow ant he could look up to.So he always had different ways of thinking when it came to things.One fine day,after some bitter experiences in life(For ex:- eating rice flour thinking it was powdered sugar) he decided to turn to a new leaf and he chose a bright orange leaf for this purpose and it was in that time he saw towards the sky to see a beautiful raindrop falling.He told to himself "This drop looks very beautiful.Maybe it really is or due to reflection of the surroundings.But I need that drop".To him it was like he was drowning in his world of thoughts and this raindrop has come to save him from all that gloominess.So he just started to wait till the drop reached this leaf but once it reached the leaf,He came to know that the there was a need to push that drop till it reaches the desired spot.Now pushing a drop is a very tough job to do.He imagined talking himself to the leaf and the drop..!!
Leaf told him angrily "You know what,that drop is mine as it landed on me first.In a way I'm totally responsible for it.So make sure it sees no damage!!"
Now it was the drop's turn to talk. "Don't fall for her traps ant,she tells this to all the drops that fall here.Last time the same thing happened to another drop also"
The Ant was confused as hell.So he decided to push the drop slowly towards the end so that he could see what happened to the drop
As he was pushing the drop further he could see the leaf mocking him "See I told you..The faster you try to do this the sooner the drop will disappear"
But the drop told "Do not worry,I will always be strong enough not to be crushed by a ignorant leaf"
He wondered "Can a drop change a leaf?"
After reaching the mid way on the leaf,the ant came to a standstill.The thing he had feared the most had happened.He started becoming a part of drop.It was so apparent because all of his world were of the color of the drop.He could not imagine his life without that drop.Crying only increased his confusion and puzzled him more as he knew he had no control over the drop or the leaf or in whatever direction the end turns out to be.
So he left things as they were for a few hours but it was almost impossible to come out of that drop.
This drop had a habit of using reflections as the only mirror to see the world.So it had to see and hear some ugly things in the meantime and thought the ant will survive only if left alone.The ant thought "How can I explain that reflections are not the reality and they just reflect the character of the source they come from but not the destination and reflections are always reversed by nature".The ant was just sad and got depressed thinking of all this.He even tried talking things out with the drop and finally after so much of pain the drop agreed to the leaf and realized what had went wrong with ant in first place.So is the ant fully clear about the way things had to turn up...Nope and he wants the drop to explain how it did not know the difference between reflections and reality !!!
My my,doesn't it seem like a somewhere heard story....!!
No wonder you think I'm the ant and the leaf is your mind.But then what are the Drop and reflections ?
And the way you think depends on the answer you give to the above question.
