A NEW DAY

There is certainly something about the rising of the sun. Whether it’s the dawn of a new year, the 1st day of the month or a Monday morning (as Sunday is considered a part of the weekend), there is freshness in the mind and haste in the one’s steps. It’s like charting a new territory, the uncertainty of which comes with a thrill akin to an adventure.


Today was no exception. I woke up feeling a lofty psyche, my mind in a buoyant flair. And surely, I got on the road to work unwilling to be bothered with the way my Mondays go...and bang! Starting from the problems with my work place computer network to the frightened 2-year old that would only wave his byes to me when he was outside the glass door; my day was fast and laborious. O yea, I did have that unusual lunch.

At home now and after my evening jog, I reflect at the sheer joy of life when the next event is not an event. Quite simply, unknown (although in this case, I didn’t care to think of what lay ahead of me). The spontaneity of life is one of the things that make it interesting.

I feel I am at the brink of something really profound in my life. I have surely put ink to paper on a few things I wouldn’t want to miss out on, but I have also left a lot that my life so far should be able to face head on without much pre-meditation. What was that quote my Professor said when he welcomed my class to a new phase in my undergraduate years? Yes, he wished us all the luck that our prep would have brought us.

It is twilight now but I could also say “let tomorrow come”.

I don’t want to tamper with natural ignorance; it’s the key to happiness- Anonymous.
