Hide and Seek

Morning or evening the game brings joy and eyes roll in merriment. Time and again this experience departs without sentient. Tour on any boulevard, seldom fails to be a part of this game.

With a gleam the opponent signals the commencement of the game which appears akin to a lantern in the dark. Locomotion and velocity are no vehicles to seek the opponent nevertheless facilitate in hiding. The thrill of hiding is momentary and soon I steal a look out of inquisitiveness to know the opponent’s whereabouts ending up questioning my agility.

My decision to set out with a veil of pride and with courage and buoyancy even after recognizing the partial defeat requires some admiration. In a jiffy the game brings new excitement: hiding and peeping through the tree leafs, edifice, bridge, sky cotton candy and at times through the glass in an indirect approach. There subsists the bewilderment- ‘who seeks whom’?

Morning or evening the opponent concludes the game with a well deserved victory and walks away with a tacit and worthy memo- ‘Do not lose hopes I shall provide you another opportunity try and conquer me. If you fail do not give-up but realize you cannot overpower Nature even with superior technology. Always enjoy the game for I shall adorn myself anew to refresh your mind and fill up with joy.’

Life, an Elevator

Begin with quarrying, laying foundation, and mounting pillars, stacking up concrete bricks in a contemporary vogue. Heaving the Elevator might ameliorate the builder’s and or society’s prospects.

After years/months of toil by the builder, the Elevator kicks-in. The disposition of electricity- any form of divine association; wires- the principles and values imparted; door- the heart; mirror, light and fan- acumen; software- the mind.

‘Serve all’ is the Elevator’s tenet. Wires help to be transportable and shift levels. Each level has a new perception and learning. The door welcomes people by expanding itself with an upright pleasant smile. Mirror reflects the true ‘you’ and assists in appreciating or curing. Light is the lifeline of Mirror. Fan begets comfort. Software controls the supplement, so they say. Electricity is the lifeline of all lifelines. Ultimately it is people and the Elevator itself who craft the worth of its life.
