Random Realization - 7

Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence. 
Henry David Thoreau 


So, it was yet another evening and I was roaming outside with a friend. It was unusually dark and the visibility was pretty low. We were walking and talking about how changes are the only thing which remain a constant while everything else changes, some people leave us, some we leave, some go with angels and some are accompanied by the demons. The conversation was turning from the soft and subtle realizations to the unadulterated truth. 

Just then I looked ahead and with ticks, the street lights had lightened up and the road which seemed to go nowhere now had a direction. 

A road with no passengers, a sad little deserted track was showing us this path which seemed distant yet the lights promised something, they promised a destination worth traveling for. 

Without any intention we kept walking and reached the end of this road, it was a dead end. My friend hurriedly concluded that life is a rat trap, it is a bait which we  fall in, but I was somehow sure that there has to be some reason why we came here, I tried to reach out to a conclusion but failed but since then I have always found answers to all my problems while walking alone on that road. 

Walking does teleport you to another world, a world where you think on your own, not affected by social judgments, acceptances & dejection, a world where it all comes down to what you want.
