A Stroll by the Park

What do we live for? Where do we love to stroll?

Life’s little garden has episodes strewn all over. One such acquaintance has been to be part of the blogger’s forum … a park where writers blossom. There was a day in not-so-distant past when a young lady commented on my writing with a small update on a novel she wrote.

The comment has become history now … the friendship didn’t.

Over the next two years (and a little more) she kept playing hide-and-seek as I kept moving amidst the lush green lawns, freshly mowed … decorated with the crystals from the morning dew. New flowers kept blooming here and there … red, yellow and pink, as new acquaintances became commonplace.

Friendship in this open vast virtual space doesn’t come easy. Yet I was one who was blessed all through with some of the finest minds in the cyberspace.

They came from many regions, all ages … and a mix of mindsets that I always enjoyed. Do we really evaluate a flower? Or take care to scrutinize the flower bed where it blossoms?

Fragrances do not mandate inspection. They mystify minds with their aroma.

And now this lovely park! Wow, it has been a wonderful journey across meadows of a lovely fascination called writing. An intense passion with scores of friendly bonds … so pristine.

Does life need anything more to invigorate?

A cool breeze seems to be blowing from south … and my mind is wavering with newfound dreams. There are ideas that I seldom brought out in my earlier writings, while there are fresh dilemmas that rock.

Yet my life continues to stroll amidst the worldwide wonder called the web, while my friends keep the hope alive in me.

What more can a blogger dream of?

Over the next couple of months, I will continue to share things that I haven’t yet. They are from my heart, an area I didn’t dare open till now. The mind did the talking mostly, whereas the idle ideas from heart were closeted somewhere deep inside.

Wish to exchange some of these now … and with the smell of the fresh green grass and the scent of the bloom around, I set free my idle heart. Catch me if you can ... I'm free at last!
