Now you all inhabit an era of autobiography or self
expression. Then why should I inhibit in divulging myself in the same way. A
part of my autobiography leaps out of my mind and migrates as a word document
here. And eventually it will creep to Rudraprayaga’s blog. Though I seem to track a furtive style
of life, here I would unearth my real countenance removing the mask from it. My
real identity will catch hold of you, when you ramble through the way I pave
here.
I vehemently approach people for their company because I
know very well that in the inner core of their mind they keep a yen to enthrone
me there. Sometimes they heed attention not a bit for my presence. So at that
time I come within the reach of animals, birds, flies and even inanimate
things. They also sometimes move away or are distanced from me. One thing
I’ll put in the picture that I
require someone or something for
my existence.
When one day I made an old man feel my presence, he very
delightfully shook hands with me and offered me his amity. An easy-chair,
bearing a smile on the lips extended a reception to both of us. As the old man
lay down with me, a redundant visitor appeared there to spoil all the calm
supplying qualms to us. The visitor was a bad back-pain that drove the host to
a nearby hospital .I vacated me from the scene, since I couldn't and can’t
entertain ill-stricken people. Usually oldsters invite us to pay frequent
visits to them. But their infirmity drives me away.
Middle-aged adults pine for my presence but they are meddled
with their regulars in the up-keep of their domiciles .And also they are after
their teen-aged offspring’s triumphs and
achievements in academics as well as
co-academics. So they don’t even imagine of my occurrence. They postpone entertaining me.
So I prefer
youngsters to both these categories because youths seldom fall prey to frailty
and also modern youths embrace me with all their heart. They favour me much,
while they sit with systems or mobiles
for chatting. Though the busy ingenious professionals among them have to strive
hard for a little liberated time to have me with them, they have to discountenance me
sometimes. But they sure earmark a large fraction of their holiday
occasions to spend with me. Not only that, having felt my being with them, they
remain on board for hours together.
Ho! I can’t even think of the friendship with workaholic
people. Their body and mind will be submerged in their labour and thereby its
result. They don’t even turn their eyes to me and kick me off with the left leg,
putting all the vim in work. Hence I evade them totally and rather escape from there
to some other people.
Once I approached a chap, who was ten years old during the
long summer break. He stretched his arms to receive me. He rapidly navigated
his direction to the amusement room and twisted swiftly with the rhythm of
songs from the T.V. Children who become busy with books, games, entertainments
etc. never care for me. They also go after food of their choice and are with it
for long. They quite often engage their mouth in chewing or chattering and I
bid adieu mostly.
But I need not vex
about all these conditions as there are a set of people who clasp my presence
and I revere them honestly. They are always ready to welcome me to their midst.
They greet me whole-heartedly and prefer lingering more on me than focussing on their occupation if any. If
at all they become inclined to concentrate on their job, I am sure they won’t do
it voluntarily. They have hesitation none to always hold my presence, no matter
even if they are in a squalid atmosphere. Do you know who they are? They are
the ‘Lazy group of People’.
And now you may conjecture as who this is. Don’t worry I’ll give you some hints. ‘I am there in
Purest’. I hold with me nearest ,the dearest. I sit in restaurant.’ Can’t
guess!
My name is 'Rest, the Great' (pu-rest, nea-rest, dea-rest,rest-aurant etc.).
Current time is ominous to me because my foe ‘Busy Condition’ has abode among
modern people. Consequently the latter chase me away, they are much fond of me
though. Still holidays and nights of people invite me for merriment and I then enjoy the reception from them.
“To be too busy collects contempt”.
‘Rest in haste wastes your time’.

hi Sarala, this is very interesting. The suspense is maintained till the end. Good write up.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ushaji.
ReplyDeleteUmm, if you may please take my comment in its spirit, I feel the write up was a good attempt . But was leading in to confusion. A bit of too many words that perhaps added to the confusion.
ReplyDeleteI think, your idea needs to be conveyed better.Perhaps a little more choice of words that fit exactly to the situation...?
There is nothing else but the heart to suffice to.
ReplyDeletenice write up till end it kept increasing desire to read more and know what you want to express
