Mushroom soup for the soul

A day that started late... a disturbed night before that.. tired, depressed, sore throat, unwanted thoughts, senseless self promises n pointless realizations... one more day that was trying to teach me neither to look at the past or try peaking at the future... just b content for the moment! All this ofcourse is easy to preach... to just say 'be happy' n twantadaiiiinnnn... life is all roses!!!!!

A day which am sure would have made The Gods ponder to make things worse to atleast make me realize how happy i really should b at the moment...

Hmmm... a day that was hardly active.. all i wanted to do was sleep, sleep n sleep long... sleep is a wonderful medicine... time heals but it pains during that time... but sleep helps u wile off all that time faster aint it?!

So as always, a simple walk to the beach is the best medicine ever... just wear something comfy to walk n wear anything that will not call for any sort of attention from anyone... the best, uninterrupted self pampering that anyone cld give oneself... walk at a steady speed, sweat, b careful of all those bizarre vehicles, enough people to notice n ponder about n let my imaginations run wild about wat they were doing for life... like that sweet, little, round aunty walking on the street who mightve been a part of a circus co. (thanks to her super bright attire) n ended up marrying a doctor who met her while treating a hurt lion, with a scientist son wanting to become spider man.... aaahhhh.. BLISS i zay :)

Its funny making all these bubbles... thought bubbles to b more precise... all sorts of nonexistent irrelevant bubbles... making them only to break it n breaking it sometimes only bcos its been made... :) heights of vetti thanam...

While walking, bless the soul of all those besent nagar beach korathis making the best junk jewellery in the world... how beautiful they r just to watch at... bold, bright, different textures n designs, different varieties hanging everywhere under that lamp making them all the more magical... rather ethereal!

With all the magic n the bubbles n ofcourse the long walk, it was but obvious that my stomach started rumbling... n i was just outside gallopin gooseberry, the best burger joint in town! I walk inside, take a book out n decide to check on wat my best friend was upto... I call her n we talk for a while... she asks me wat i was upto n i tell her i was having dinner, alone, in beasent nagar beach... all hell breaks loose after that!!!!! though i found no reason y she shldve freaked so much, i definitely felt nicer after all that pampering :).. she even went to the extent of sending someone to GG n setting me with a blind date right then... after calming her n every1 else that she decided shld gimme company during that time, i had to order something to eat to escape the annoyed glance of the restless restaurant manager n the solitary waiter waiting for some work... time to direct all my attention to my still grumbling stomach!

My mushroom soup arrives finally... piping hot n wonderfully creamy with carefully sliced mushroom slices, coriander leaves, an awesome aroma n so soulful... It then struck me that nothing really mattered anymore than that mug full of mushroom soup!
