Solitary

My mom lives in Brampton and it is about less than 4 hour drive from my home. As I am driving, I come across these new wind mills near Chanttam that have been coming up recently. The green fields and the windmill always take me into a different world for a few minutes. Every trip I look forward to get carried away, there were couple instance I have come late night and missed seeing them but try to stare at them in the dark, where their red lights keep blinking in the dark.

So Majestic yet so feeble
Stading out there lonely in the field day and night
You just give in... just let the wind lead you in its course
You let the wind lead you, just so you can generate power
Generate power for others to benefit.
You amaze me!

Down the journey

I got to watch this tamil movie vinnaithandi varuvaya again last night as I was flipping between channels and this movie caught my attention. I got mesmerised and carried away again in the movie as it happened the first time. It just brought back flashes of memories back into my mind and I could even feel the smell of things around me and my feelings at that time. Only some movies can do that to you. As the movie was ending, I realised that may be love would be beautiful only during the initial phase of courtship and would have remained the same if it did not move into the journey of marriage. Once we have something we want, we start caring less about it as we go through our mundane activities. The strong feeling we had at that time.. heart beat racing as I get a glimpse of him.. the few minutes I get to spend seems to be worth a million.. Is it just the age? Why cant we have the same feeling after 10 or 15 yrs of marrying the same person, butterflies are not fluttering in our stomach when we see them. Emotions do not pour out when we see them the end of the day. Does Love die? Should the butterflies become stronger? Expectations arise and if that is not met, anger seems to be the top emotion. Love gets buried between all these emotions but it would be somewhere there just lost if not you would still not be around the person...
