The other day, I was having a coffee in Goodluck (as usual) and for a second I missed a heartbeat!
In the next second, the clock stopped ticking, the third second made my ears go deaf and the next moment I heard my own silent laugh of astonishment!
What caused such fast-paced changes in my reality was nothing but an illusion!
Actually, while having a coffee I saw a girl in the cafe who was not at all similar to HER but still reminded me of HER!
By the way,
Today, I finished reading Eat, Pray & Love by Elizabeth Gilbert.
I wonder the transition any reader go through during and after reading the book!
It hurts sometimes, reading the last page and closing the book!
(of course, if the book is worth reading according to the reader's opinion)
It is a whole journey in itself!
The story holds our hand and we stroll with it throughout the book with such an engrossment that we forget the fact - Every story ends! Leaving its footprints and creating a space of utmost gratitude in our heart for it.
I wonder why am I liking this book so much!
It has a few captivating lines with which I am feeling connected I guess!
One of the engagin sentences I came across was -
Take the time you need to heal,
but don’t forget to eventually share your heart with someone. Don’t make your life a monument
to David or to your ex-husband.”
I just loved this line!
There is another sentences -
Your problem is you don’t understand what that word means. People
think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a
mirror, the person who shows you everything that’s holding you back, the person who brings
you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most
important person you’ll ever meet because they tear down your walls and smack you awake.
But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life
just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then they leave. And thank God for it
All these sentences remind me of HER- Prutha!
Today even I am thinking of not to let my life be a monument of what has gone, leaving me with a bit of grief within me.
When we met, I was as dry as any human being can possibly get!
She was the rain! I knew it the moment I saw her!
It scared me! For quite a long time!
She was the opulence knowing on my door and all I kept doing was praying to the universe for some prosperity (keeping all my doors closed)!
My poor mind could not properly hold the hand given by destiny through her presence!
But not anymore!
I am full!
Full enough to live all by myself, learn and grow!
Full enough to live without HER, with HER in my heart!
She did HER work well!
Time plays a great role in determining what kind of person we become!
And THE time is changing and I guess so are we!
I do not know if would like the 'Future SHE' or not, but...
She once said to me " Whenever you miss me, close your eyes, call my name and I will be there"
And I had promised her with " I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart"
(It is actually a poem by E. E. Cummings)
She seems to be keeping her promise well,
so, I will keep mine!
I will make sure my story moves on...
and that my life does not merely become a monument of losses I had.
and may it thrive on healthy memories and keep growing and flourishing in every direction it wants!
May we all get to meet our Prutha at least one in our life and may we be wise enough to KNOW it when we meet!
The thing is,
Breakups, marriages, sex, money, EMI, SIPs, deadlines, personal goals, relationship goals etc make life so compact and tricky that we might ignore Prutha's presence in our life!
Be Alert!
And you never know...
Maybe YOU are YOUR OWN Prutha!
