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....

  1. In the end of the cave, there is emptiness, there is still one thing in emptiness, the feeling of self.
