This is the story of a little girl I met! She was happy! I asked her the reason. She started telling me the reason of why she was happy!
She replied I don’t know I was asleep for a long time, and suddenly I was woken up! And what do you think woke her up? Two souls, a bit lost, a bit confused, not knowing why they were hurt! In their presence even though she was sleeping, she could listen to voices unheard, felt something untouched! What was it, she doesn’t know, all she knows that it woke her up!
But why was she sleeping, for so long? Because she was hurt, not once, twice but many times, the bruises were strong, and she doesn’t remember when she fell asleep, but, she’d been sleeping since. But now that she’s woken up, she lived some wonderful moments, spent some wonderful time, connected to wonderful people and started living a happy life. The only problem with this life was, in front of those voices and feelings, she was vulnerable, and an emotional fool, the chatterbox unknowingly used to go quiet, and at some times, she really was dependent on them, those voices and those feelings! And the best part of all of that was, the voices read her unsaid thoughts, and her say-it-all eyes. This made her even weaker, because, all these years she was asleep, she was never something anybody could understand, but now that they could solve the quest, she really thought they deserve her love. She showered them with love, unconditional, limitless, and true! She did her best to keep them happy! They made her happy! Loving is all about giving, without expecting anything in return, that is what she did, and all of this kept her happy! Very, very happy!
But I told her to be honest, sometimes, something must have happened in her life! Something against her wishes, hopes and dreams! She hesitated a bit at first, but finally replied, those voices have surely woken me up, surely made me beautiful, but I’m not sure of how long they’ll be here, and now that I’m used to it, will I have to go to sleep again to overcome the pain of their loss? This is the thing that troubles her occasionally.
But with thinking for some more time, she said. No, not this time, she said. She’s sure! Their hearts are connected; the voices and the feelings are still connected even though their destinies are not. She knows, they might not be there, always, but when she’ll need them they’ll be there. She knows they love her and will love her forever. And she really need not sleep now, rather she just can't sleep now, because, the light of the memories, will keep her awake!
By the way did I tell you where I met her, I met her on the path of introspection!
