NEW BEGINNINGS

Contained in dreams and thoughts of our own make, trying to decipher the goings and ongoings on the canvas of our minds, a sudden alarm breaks out shaking us gently to wake up. Deluded by the dream world, one of the many homes of our being, we feel confused to the need of leaving our dreams unsorted and  shifting our attention to a new world. Slowly the unconscious worries of the coming day become alive and we wake up. Still immersed in the mysteries of the world we left behind, the world around engages our senses gradually and we start sipping in the sweet sunlight drawing its way through the room’s shades. The sparkle of it clears our minds of the alien thoughts and lets the hope creep in, the hope for a new day, a better time, more love, less pain.

          This might seem surprising yet so familiar for we have been going through this almost every morning as long as we’ve been alive. The beginning of each day demands from us to make this strange transition. It expects us to leave a state as it is and enter a new one with renewed hope and spirit. It wants us to move on from where we are, hoping to meet something better where we’ll be. The new world, in the end, might turn out better or worse for all we care.
           Consider this scenario more carefully and it shows a stark resemblance to a transition we sometimes fear yet some other times anticipate and many a times feel nervous or excited about, more or less. Its a change which drives us to a new something. Its a door opening up to a new path, treading on which is our instinct. Its a NEW BEGINNING.
            New beginnings are never quick and easy to make. They are a stranger with no promise, yet still so attractive in prospect, creating an allure of hope, holding the end for the end. We can embrace them and unveil their power but in return we need to fulfil their one condition, that is, we need to give up what we’re holding on to for only then can we accept and live the new. Its a wonderful change infusing in us new thoughts and aspirations. Only we have to let the previous go and make space for new light to outbreak.
