Does this ever happen to you? Maybe it's just this thing between me and seeing a sheet of white sprawled in front me. You know... that.
It's raining now. Oh, what a great weather to stay indoors and hide under the duvet. I love staying indoors, where it's dry and warm, when it's wet and cold outside. Play some Jazz or Classical in the background to keep me company (and classy) or even cook something up. I get this sense of tranquillity inside me whenever I bake while it is raining. Something like a silent joy? I just love how it feels. Calm & carefree. Something subtle. Like someone's hugging you from the back with a duvet. (??!!?)
This kind of weather makes me think of life. Yes, corny thought. Laugh, sneer, stare, glare at that, whatever, do what you like, I can't see you. For today, I thought about how people always say that getting a grip of yourself after having suffered a failure is the most important thing to get over it. Then I thought about how much effort is needed to pick up the pieces, mend it or even, just leave it there and move on. I thought about how the past is capable in catching up with the future, haunting the current and putting one into dismay once more. Then I thought about how another person can help to catalyse the process of getting over something; the strength that companionship gives to one. & then the corrosion and maybe extinction of long-term companionship in the modern world. Or is it just the same across generations? Has information actually allow people to be flexible in this sense too?
Anyway, I shouldn't be indulging in such thoughts (bad distractions). One thing that I would love to do now is... have a tv dinner with a nice company. :)
