getaway

haven't had a decent thought in my gray matters for months now, since the 'death' of the blog. not to say that all my thoughts are indecent but rather that i haven't had time to sit down and muse or form a train of deep thoughtful observations.

it has been a series of very busy months, without much time for reflections or the luxury of indulging in whims. so, it's going to be that type of year is it? sadly, i'm probably the type to compartmentalise my perceptions and classify the rest of the year as 'hiccup-y', especially if the year starts off with two deaths of people i never thought of as affecting me. i take everything too dramatically, perhaps because i am too emotional. but this is not a trait that we can coldly cut off and be done with. it will be a life far simpler if everybody was born without that nasty thing we call emotion but a life far more cold and detached, and perhaps not quite worth living. so, with all these bottled up tears and heart wrenching pains we are stuck with, living our lives the best we can.

life is an amalgamation of sadness, joy, mindless routine and some surprises. hidden within the layers of hustling duties, i visited a place last weekend that brought an unexpected comfort. the klpac. a little beautiful place tucked away in the busy city that appeals to the melancholic side of me, a place that i want to run away and hide from the ugliness, the coldness that is in our life. a place that i can imagine myself wasting time sitting by the pond, legs dangling over the water, enjoying the cool breeze. a place where the blend of glass, concrete, bricks and greens appeal to the core of me. if only i can live there and be part of it.

photos? you have to be there to feel it, not see it.
