Twilight is my favorite time of the day. But today I shall write something about morning. About the time which begins our day, every day, forever. About the time when we first think about our ambitions, our hopes, our passion.
Over the past 4 weeks now, I have been commuting by the PATH train to Exchange Place - two stations away from my home. This 10 min journey has always something new to offer, there is always some novelty about this trip everyday!! May be I have become more observant!! This article is all about one of my best observations in this path train.
I arrived to the Journal Square station at 8:13. As usual I saw a mix of anxious, lost in time, lost in music, sad, hopeful, and observant (as that of mine) faces!! But I didn't know that I was yet to witness a great sight, a sight seen once in a lifetime, a sight which epitomized the spirit of separation, the tender sorrow of separation, that anxiety that earnestness...All these emotions in just 3 secs.
As soon as I boarded the train a man got in, but his love was still behind, walking with gentle steps. Perhaps she didn't know that destiny had decided to carry her in another train... As soon as she was about to enter, the door closed shut. You all should have seen the rush of emotions flashing across their faces!! It was a Kodak moment :-). The girl should have thought in sequence -
'Oh, I can't believe this', and then
'seen the rest of the platform with shyness if someone is watching her',
(she perhaps didn't know that the whole Journal Square station was watching her, was eager to break open the door and send her in the same train, she was the centre of attraction, she was the queen of this morning, she instantly captured the attention of everyone and also perhaps made them think about their love!! )
And then I saw the same eagerness, sorrow, passion, trust and hope on her face as we see in Meera...
The man in the train should have thought something like - 'Oh no! Oh no yaar, I want to get out of this train, somebody please make this train stop...' His feelings were that of helplessness, but then at exactly the same time they assured each other through their silence and eyes that - 'Dear I'm there for you, can this trivial train separate us, in fact it will now make us think about each other every moment until we meet! See you soon at the next station!! I will wait for you....'
Even this blog is not enough to describe the beauty of that sight! Love is beyond the horizon. Period.
