crisp white sand melts through my toes, the comfortably cold feel beneath my soles.
It was a picture perfect moment.. I stood there and in the center in front of me, a distant bright red dot, sank down silently. I dance with the water and the wind making random shapes in the sand and I'm sprinkled with cool salty water that swept off my feet to save it from a jelly-fish's sting.. so perfect.
Does this paradise really exist?
Just as the sun sank down, my heart melts inside with a single gaze into that pair of caramel tinted hypnotizing circles... I can gaze into them forever and I've my perfect sunset moment again.....

Fantasy or reality? Sometimes I wonder if 'the Matrix' was infact a reality, if I would want to be woken up or would I just want to persist blissfully unaware? Sunsets are absolutely mesmerizing, with or without the caramel, but, what scares me at times is the long nigth of darkness that follows.
Ahh each of us have a choice.. the fearless strong mind, the fearless and strong soul will constantly question, as there's got to be an answer.. the fearful mind & soul will find that 'comfort zone' and just bounce along through human life...
y are you scared of the night that follows sunsets? the Moon light, the stars up above give so much twinkling light.. there's always someth going on at all times..
you know someone once told me, the bottom line of all this is that, " everything is all abt nothing" i.e. each of us are pursuing different things, ideas whatever our minds tell we are passionate abt... but why are we running after these things? otherwise life is boring! hence, we are made to puruse something or the other and that is perfectly o.k. I think if we are aware of the possibility that everything around us is really nothing, we are just a small little spec in this infinite universe, we are at a better situation... more thghts latr
'Maya'... Isn't that what you are talking about? The illusion of things around us to keep us going. Nothing is a very scary concept, but, most of us will have to deal with that at some point in our lives. What is the purpose of everything? Is it all just a momentary experience that you go through day after day? Some find solace in others, whether its family for some, close friends for some or even a slightly bigger cause for others. Nothing really does matter in the 'big picture', but, why do we even have to think of the big picture? I am teetering on the edge of thinking that for me and in my opinion for everyone else the 'big picture' is in fact only that which concerns me or impacts me. A wee bit selfish, yes, but, if there are things outside my sphere of influence it really doesn't matter what I think/do/feel about those, I can't do anything about it. I prefer to 'act' on what I can control, but, I definitely 'think' about everything... Sorry, all this doesn't really make much sense, but, somehow its clearer in my mind.
I am scared of the night at times, because there are times that I don't feel like dealing with the unknown. As much as I appreciate the night most of the times, there certainly are times when I wish things were just a bit more illuminated.
