There is indeed something magnanimous about the mere existence
of rain. Especially in here, the rains have arrived some weeks later than we
originally would have preferred them. That means having to spend countless days
in a climate which is sometimes either scorching, and other times sweating.
Having said that, I suppose the sanctity of monsoons would
have been completely lost on many of us had it arrived the exact time we wanted
it to. Having said that, we may also expect a certain case in which we would
feel bloated with the abundant amount of rains to the point where seeing an
inch of a golden speck on the sky would be the day to sing happy-hymns.
I guess it only enforces the idea of how much we ought to
miss something only when it stays faraway from our reach. It is like being in a
relationship for half a decade, things going as normally as much a chaotic
fella fears it. When one of you asks the other about how much you love each
other, you both casually brush off the question for you both take it for granted.
Unless a time comes when you both have to live with a certain distance, do you
realise the true worth each of you hold for the other person.
If that is going too far, then how about the childhood. I
used to have this cartridge of a F1-Racing game. For as long as I had- and had
it working- I never gave any care or attention towards it, being too busy playing
Mario, Looney Tunes and all that. Until a day came when somehow it vanished
itself off of my cartridge box. That day was the first time I got an
existential crisis about how and why things go the way they go. Sure enough,
however my mother ended up finding it, hidden in the chasm of the king-sized
bed, for some reason.
So, I may enjoy this season for as long as I can tolerate,
and then go back to singing songs of praise for the sweaty summers, in the
hopes it’ll return back to me like a misjudged lover. I guess it doesn’t hurt
(even if it does) to see the things you cherish to be taken away from you, concisely
so you may just realise, how much do you cherish that particular person, thing,
or the season.
Namaste.
