Not just the wind actually. Why.. it is often windy here and i dont feel a thing.
But going on a two-wheeler, when it has just stopped raining,and the gods up there keep teasing us with a little drizzle now and a little drizzle then,... and there is just a spot of sunshine, the breeze as cool as ever, and the air as pure as it can get....wooohooooo !!! I just couldnt resist it... let my hair down and felt it flirt with the wind...
As they say, the joy of journey is in the journey itself, not the destination. And what a beautiful journey it was ! Everything lush green, trees drooping down to kiss,yellow flowers in full bloom showering down as we pass by...and letting by an aroma that lingers... the aroma of hope, of sweet promises...
And tiny sparrows chirping and singing, and the little violets by the road, oblivious to the passing vehicles, danced about in their own bliss...
And the man with his fruit-cart - full of fresh,bright fruits - every colour imaginable, and the Ganpati idols on display - faith dripped in colour, striking a magnificient contrast with the green all around...
And, how can i forget, the cute little potholes, that made for a perfect splashing ground, and the nasty little cars, who derived silly pleasure from splashing muddy water on the pedestrians ... Boooooo...
Aaah ! They do it with envy ! Just look at the expression on their faces, the ones in their little boxes on wheels - going green with envy, as they see how much more fun, how much more life there is in riding my style...oh ! you poor poor poor little people in your fancy suffocating cars ! You have NO IDEA ! How it feels to blend with nature, to experience the abundance all around, to feel blessed for having felt one with nature in this beautiful, bright world... It gives so much joy, so much hope... I woudnt trade places - Ever ! Awww....my shweet shweet scooty !
And i wished today, i could go far far away, far into those green hills, without having to stop - ever... some day, some day - i promised myself. And i returned, refreshed, rejuvenated.
