A feeling called LOVE

A light breeze caressing a withered leaf.... 
being picked up and swept away by this gentle breeze so lovingly that the leaf was ready to go wherever whichever direction the breeze took it. There was love in the way the breeze touched and picked up the leaf, swept the leaf with it and let it merge with its essence its fragrance its lightness. The love that the breeze bought made the leaf want to live again, to sway to its tunes, to feel the raindrops as they would dance on it. But to merge with this breeze the leaf has to understand and learn to love....just as the breeze careeses everything it touches so will the leaf have to learn to live again. But the leaf is so withered that every crinkle u touch turns it to dust. So it will either have to die and be born again to be with the breeze or it will have to turn into dust and still be swept away by the breeze. No matter what or which way, the leaf has to wander off with the breeze.   

Have u noticed how effortlessly the wind flows, romancing everything in its way. It doesnt discriminate its love towards anything or anyone in particular. But, its not always in the mood for romance. There are times when it carries the emotion of anger causing destruction to every little thing that stands in its path without the same bias. Just like the romancing wind, we need to learn to flow effortlessly loving everyone and everything that comes in our path spreading the fragrance of compassion and kindness. This happens only when we learn to calm the mind and look at the stillness in the picture, observing every detail that was distorted by the ripples. Most of the times we are living as a perception of others expectations, forgetting who we really are. There is a much bigger picture than we can actually visualize. The moment we realize this; is the moment the journey begins. There is no past or future. Its all about being in the now. If you give it a thought you'll realize, Everything in the universe is in motion. So are we. And anything thats moving keeps changing. So what I was a moment ago is a different me now. But its still me. When we learn to observe as a third person, and let all the different me come together to unite harmoniously is the moment we are in equilibrium with the universe. Emotions and thoughts are always there. Understanding this and detaching from them is when one finds liberation. 

Like I said.. To be with the breeze you have to become the breeze, similarly to feel the love you have to become love. Its the only emotion on which the universe exists. Understand love and everything will fall in place.
