Once upon a time I had my very own happy little world.. :)

Back when I was a kid I lived in my my own little world where I believed in everything & anything.....

Making wishes being my favorite among them all...
When blowing the candles of my cake I used to make a wish..
When my tooth came off I used to wrap it in a small piece paper with my wish written & keep it below my pillow..
When seeing a shooting star I used to make a wish..
When my eyelash accidentally used to fall out I used to make a wish with it..
When it was christmas time I used to write my letter, the long list of wishes for the secret santa..

I believed in a world where everything came true through wishing.
I believed in fairies, angels, cookie monsters, in a list of fancy mythical creatures in short..

I smile & the world smiles back at me.
All are good & the biggest crimes one could commit were steal a jar of cookies, a box of chocolates or a pack of ice cream!

These are the times when I wish I had never grown up..
The way I was I was the happiest one of all..
I was the little princess of my little world were none could harm or steal my joy..
& yet I would always love to go to that happy little world of mine.. one fine day :)

The Sunset

A beautiful Sunday evening, though it was humid, there seemed to be a warmth in the wind..
I sat there by the edge of the rocks, by the sea.. staring deep into the waters...
I had the strong urge to just take a giant leap right into the waters, to just go as deep as I can, just to see how it feels like..maybe..
It would be cold...bitter cold.. the first gulp I take of the salty water would leave me breathless for a while..a few seconds or maybe even minutes... but then a big gasp for air after the jump could prepare me further for the dive.. deeper and deeper into the mystical sea...
To the deepest point I could go, enjoying the wonders in the sea through my journey...a world beyond our imagination at times it seems to be, but the sea has always fascinated me from quiet long...

The strong rush of cold wind, leaving me goosebumps made me come back to my senses..
Oh yes, I was still sitting right there by the edge of the rocks.

I got up from where I sat, dusted the sand off my feet and butt and from there I could see behind me, the cave, which I still hadn't yet explored..
Well its never too late for anything, two..three..four steps and I was already by the mouth of the cave...
Its a small one, but all the more seems dark inside..
Walking through it , gave me a slight chill... just imagining myself to be, maybe inside one of those caves, in movies, which are dangerous,unexplored, and shelters the scary creatures.. hahhaa, really I do have a wild imagination..
As I ran my hands through those walls, I could feel some writings...
I took my phone, and through its faint light, I saw them, pictures...not done by ancient cave men of course but by the modern men LOL "Ahmed Loves Laila" , Call me "55***45**"...
Really its funny to think what people get out of these, there perspective of seeing this maybe different, but I would call it utter stupidity..
Walking, and walking, I reached the other end of the cave.. so much for the chills and imagination.. Nope nothing here...nothing that interests me to be frank...

I went back and sat in my old place.. by the edge of the rocks..
Its past 5, oh yes sunset...
You could see the sky turning a husky yellow first, then orange...
Capturing the most beautiful picture with my mind lens, I looked keenly at the setting sun..
As the huge tennis ball went down and down, I saw it disappear right there into the sea..
It just made me smile... the end of a day, leaving all your worries and tensions there behind you, all you need to do now is give your mind some rest and a wait for a new sunrise, do not carry your worries of the day, nor carry it forward to the next, no burdens, no tensions, every day has something interesting for you, it will be more promising and lovelier than the previous one.. give it a smile and wait for the new huge tennis ball to rise..

The sunsets ... but for a new sunrise....

The Toothless Smile

Its coffee time! I walk into my favorite cafe and grab a seat by the window. Sipping my coffee and watching an old man tie his shoelace I get bored, all his attempts to tie that lace seems to be ending up in vain, come on is it that hard?! I get back to my coffee which is almost half done, should I order one more, well maybe. Thats when I hear a soft giggle behind me. Its a family, a dad , mum and the owner of that giggle , a small pretty little kid. As I watch her, she is digging into her waffles, pouring syrup bits all around her and basically making her own cute mess on the table.She licks the syrup off her spoon, her tiny fingers, and wipes it on to her frock. Then she looks up, notices me, twitches a bit and smiles.. "wallaaahh", all four of her front tooth are missing, what more do you want to make your day go better. I wave a "hie" at her, and she smiles again, the cute "toothless smile".

Her spoon falls down on to the floor, she looks down and then looks up at me, so I hold my fork up and show it to her. She slowly gets down from her chair and walks over to me, her tiny feet and those little tiny steps, all the more cute. She takes the fork and gives a run for it, hahahaa. Now she is back and ready to give the mess she made, a grand end. Level 1, complete, bits of waffles syrup here and there, on her frock, her fingers, all over the table, but her plate is all clean and licked up and she is happy looking at it,the "toothless smile" again. Her mum takes the napkin wipes the syrup bits of her face, she is satisfied and fully content with her work.

My coffee being done, the second one, I slowly get up, grab my bag and as I walk over to the door, I here little steps behind me, I turn around and there she is, I kneel down and she offers to me her little jelly toffee. I take it from her and give her a small kissy on her rosy cheeks, hehehe she is happy and so am I and to add on it there she gives me, her "toothless smile" and runs back to her parents. I get up and as I head over to the door I feel at peace somehow.

 Its funny how your quiet boring evening turns out to be a good one towards the end... All thanks to the "toothless smile"..!!
