To Quit!

Longing to be out of one's body (for a while) is not a very unnatural desire. TO go beyond what you physicality can do and achieve what words would say "beyond" have always been a feature in ones imagination from time unknown. And that is exactly what he felt after reading that poem (Well a piece of text if not exactly a poem). Such out-of-the-body experiences were not rare to him but this time it lasted a bit longer and sure was a bit stronger. Thinking about everything he had and everything he did not have, he felt how thankful he was for having what he had. That how nothing he had done in this life made him worthy of having what he had. That how in another life and all lives to come he would pray to be just what he is now and nothing else. That how time has flown by and all these years, when they are passing by may feel a little too much to bear but as they are gone they feel so little a stretch, were not enough to tell the people he really cares about how much they matter to him. People may say that this is the simplest thing one can do, but he was sure after all these years that it requires a lot of courage to do that - to speak. He wishes he was courageous too but then he feels he is fine. It has turned out to be so much better than anything else - what he is. From always he had this fantasy of passing before any of his loved ones - not now but sometime long away in future. But Sitting there and thinking over it, he feels how stupid an idea that is. There is no limit of sorrow that befalls on the people who love you when you quit. Those very people have devoted so much for you - so much of their time, their feelings, their thoughts. There is no way he can give back for the things he has got, but he now knows how just by being there it will be different. Moreover, there is so much beauty to quit!
