The day is serene, and the people outside are ecstatic—you could surmise it because of the enthusiasm being discerned in their smiles. Folks from the internet are right! happiness is contagious, for once in your life you have garnered plausible bits of knowledge from the internet. You decided to walk for a bit with the intent to free your mind from stress, you then put your earphones on and decided to be oblivious about your surroundings. As usual, you were listening to your favorite song a hundred times today. Abruptly there was a cat that crossed your path and bumped into it. You removed your earphones and paused the song for a second, the cat looked at you as if it demands your sincerest apologies. You smiled and recalled you had a piece of soft bread in your bag. As compensation, you gave it to the cat and started to pat its head until its potent aggressiveness has been appeased (you know they are just domestic cats, but they still possess the instinct of a feisty lion).
After that encounter, you ceased using your earphones and started to be mindful of your environment. Now you have inferred that when you are connected with nature, you would be able to feel a sense of amenity. You started to appreciate the beauty of everything. The trees were full of healthy leaves, and their branches were dancing, following the rhythm of the wind. Birds were singing, blending with the melody of nature's sounds. You started to realize that life and time are more likely to be "idle" than you thought. Then you came across a mendicant who has been entreating folks for a small amount of penny, this occurrence has nudged your mind. An interruption took place, and you started to ponder the sinister side of life.
The world today is far busier compared to thousands of years ago. Everyone is delving into the seemingly unbounded hustle, that requires almost all of their energy to accomplish. Though, no one could blame them because they are facing the extreme necessity to survive and lend sustenance to their family. To do the latter, they need to grind double or in some cases, triple times. And as much as I despise to utter the verity because I consider others' feelings— the economic situation currently is not improving. For some, especially those who are living beyond destitute lines, it is a drastic challenge for them to even accrue at least one meal for a day. Their circumstance is what drives them to surmount the normative because if they don't, life would scourge them.
At some point in our lives, we were longing for "a forward button"—probably to expedite the time and instantly end our suffering. But life is sometimes jocular with fate, it could throw unbounded challenges, burdens, and adversities that could eventually thwart our spirits. What is making us irk is that the latter seems to appear cumbersome, the formidability of circumstances lasts for a marathon of time. As if being optimistic or clutching sanguinity is no longer helping or worse it has been detracted from options. This is the veracity, the idleness of time favors those who are living comfortably, it allows them to have more time to relax, and for others—time conduces for engrossment of their contrivances.
Now, after a minute of pondering—you have gained the courage betook to walking. You then protract paying attention to every infinitesimal detail of your surroundings. Conceding that walking provides you with a sense of mundaneness. You have become adept at not taking anything for granted, instead of listening to cliche songs on a loop—you commenced to hark at nature's melody. You closed your eyes and felt a flash of cleansing, you started to affirm yourself that life is a complicated conundrum. We cannot preclude nor shun its perilous repercussions— it does not discriminate between saints and sinners, affluent and impoverished, haughty and weaklings. When destiny permits, circumstances could spew virulence ubiquitously. So, it is better to be apt and vicious because we are innately oblivious to this realm.
Few steps have been made; you have now reached your home sweet home. Now, you uncluttered the floor and your bed. You sat down gently, picking up the remote to open the television. Your room was a bit hot, but it was not a problem because you have your functional electric fan—way better and cooler than an air conditioner. You then turned it on and switched to number 3 for maximum wind blows. Fortunately, the weather suddenly favors you. It alleviates the temperature because the sky just turned murky. Rain is about to be poured, you sighed heavily and told yourself "Life is not bad at all". You grabbed your blanket and jauntily enveloped your whole body; you smiled and closed your eyes. After numerous encounters, you are finally having the rest that you deserve. As you lie down, the clock ticks slowly, cumbersome enough as if time is frozen. After all, time does not hurry, time also does not slow down. However, certainly, time moves quickly or slowly depending upon one's viewpoint. Take it easy! you do not need to figure it out now or tomorrow. Let life unravel its peculiarity.
