At pen- Soumita Kundu
And I went to find hope. To find happiness. Where was happiness? By smoking weed or getting drunk? By riding the bike at 160kmph or diving into the sea at midnight? I asked the bird, "How do you sing so beautifully each and every day?" I asked the sea, "How do you keep coming back to the shores every time? I asked the Sun, "Don't you get tired by rising up and setting down everyday?" I asked the tree, "Doesn't your arms hurt by dancing all day with the wind?" They all smiled and went back to do their work. And I lay there, on the beach with the sunset on the back and the birds returning to their home. Suddenly, the big rock started laughing at me . When I asked the reason for his laughter, he replied that " I am here for so many decades. I have seen the world changing. I have even worn out a lot but still, I have a lot of time to get completely weathered down. What am I doing, am I crying for what I have lost? Rather, I am still enjoying whatever little I have." And I heard a sound. The Sound coming from a distant place. It felt music to my ears. I got up and started looking here and there but the music stopped. I couldn't understand what happened. I sat there, again. I closed my eyes and then, I saw a smiling version of myself. I could hear the music again. I understood.....the music, the happiness, the positivity- it's all inside me. And, I did find hope.
