When Life Goes in Yawns

image_pdfimage_print

Many times we don’t know why we are feeling unfulfilled, despite our desires being met, despite having the house going, despite the hot meals made for everyone, and yet despite the occasional meet and greet, why do we feel our lives going in a complete slow motion graph. The road of our lives seems endlessly straight and we seem to long for minor bumps to break that motoring monotony. Yes, life is a yawn and sometimes and we just don’t know how to shake off our half dazed, in and out effect, and create a gigantic colourful prism. How we wish we had the steering wheel in our hands to make our journey a wonderful exciting Ferris wheel of gigantic complexity.

Those minutes might not, never come, as no one wants to go on risk taking roller coasting ride, but yes we can create a few moments of magic. We can add sprinkles of joy on little cup cakes of passing time. What we need to do to bake that little blue puff cream of joy, is simply take “time off”. That should be your little “me time” ! Maybe a walk around the aisle of a mall simply window shopping, drinking a cup of that awesome hot expresso, or going to your nearby book store and reading a couple of pages, or simply walking the friendly dog of your neighbour whom you love to pat so much! So, its not so tough to identify that single solid moments, that might break the daily humdrum and make you sing an occasional happy tune. This could be your own special loony tune to come back to happiness of your day to days. Enjoy the bake me downs forever in your life, my special me time friend and enjoy the bumpity bumps!
