Hi, how are you?


She was walking in the midst of a confabulatory crowd with hazy sets of dreams playing in the mind. She was content with them. Happy to listen to them, sad to come back to the reality. This life was beautiful. Lots of beatific moments lit up her face. The happy laughters arround her somehow made not much difference. She was happy being there, in her own happy space. Inside her blissful bubble. Away from the monotonous and boring daily routine.
But someday someone strange came up to her and asked her how she was.
How are you?' was a simple question. But obviously some simple questions can't be answered, and some others make you glad. This question made both.
A smile was all she could give. Rest of the seconds she sat staring at that person, trying to figure out why this person gained so much of her attention just because of one question asked. Because she couldn't stop. Everyday she would search for that person, forget to get back to her happy void, hoping to read that soul as much as her brain could understand.
She had seen no one who was interested in her life. She had thought life was like that, worrying only about our beauties and beasts, helping people only when they asked. She had forgotten that life was much more. That sometimes being courageous enough to step back from our daily routines and saying hi to some other similarly distressed soul makes such a huge difference to them. That making time to listen to the beautiful stories that otherwise would just perish inside a lonely mind would make such big difference in their life. Sometimes taking care of another person, another creature Or another thing teaches us much more than listening to our own stories.
Let's ask them. Listen to them. Appreciate their fancies. Cos we have more than just ample time to listen to ours. Let's start moving from mine to ours. Let's be the coolest.

Walking, Dreaming, smiling.

Aye be aware! For there are those who can squeeze you out And there are those you can love your dust With all their might cause you are the one Then there are those who can let you be When others are obsessed with making you different. You might meet someone who turns your life around, Like a gaint tsunami hitting the coast But be aware! For the best are the ones who Find the miracle in the princess made up of stardust. 
There is a world out there where all that matters is you. Where material things no longer exists, where souls come across other souls,  where what others say or think or perceive no longer matter. There is a world out there where your choice matters but in your life. And in this beautiful world you can do whatever you want, can go wherever you want and be in the state of bliss every second. Want to know which world it is? That beautiful place is called The Earth. Yes. We are living in this place of unlimited joy and unlimited abundance. You can do whatever you want, go wherever you want. And it is in this very own Earth that souls encounter each other and fall in love. But there is one thing you should do. Start listening. Start listening to the voice of your soul. Hmm. I dont know, but I do know That once you start meditating, you eventually tend to reach that state when you stop bothering about the materialistic things and materialistic thoughts. And it is when you are in...
Just tell me why it aint possible.  I mean come on, just look around you, look at the things you do each day. Even now do you think its not possible? Then you are wrong. Just think about it. When you feel hot, dont you take a card or paper and swipe it. Dont you get fresh air now. How? There was air before also. But its strenght wasnt enough to suffice your thirst. But now when you used that card and moved it left and right, more air came rushing. But from where? The air was already there but this time you put your effort and strenght, so air quenched your thirst. Hmmm... Right! Think about it. And tell me.
