I was asleep. Until someone splashed some ice cold water on me.And i woke up wide awake. And this post is an attempt.. To ensurethat i don't go rihgt back to sleep. My brain foggy. And this is an attempt that my dying mind puts up a fight before it is dragged to the graveyard and buried with a tombstone which reads - Here lies Anju's mind. It really did think. Once upon a time...
Until i formulate my thoughts into words and jot it down, it remains this wispy smoky affair. And thats why i'm doing this now..
One of the recent books i have read is by Hemmingway.The old man and the sea..And in this absolutely fantablulous book, there is one scene which stays with me. On a summer day, when sleep has still not left the boys's eyes.. The old man tells him - "I am sorry". And the boy replies.."It is what a man must do". and this is what i say to myself every day.When i have to pry my eyes open and flush away the sleep by splashing wateron to the droopy eyes. I tell myself - "Anju!! This is what a man must do".And every day these words help me to do nothing great. It helps me to just survive.
