Choice

As i sit here thinking of wot to jot down, my mind drifts between the choices. The sheer bombardment of choices that are thrown in our faces from the mundane stuff in life to the most important issues. When i wake up in the morning , i have a choice of what kind of tooth paste do i use, pepsodent (germicheck) or colgate ( brand since childhood )to a choice of shower gel : Body shop wild passion or vanilla to whether i wd wanna drink tea / coffee , go to work by auto or get me dropped ...

Its been quite some time since i have been doing this introspection n i have realised the more choices we get, the more confused, impatient,unfaithful we get...Is it the choices that I m bothered with ? In a way i m glad that i have so many options to choose from. Confused or selective - I would now prefer to use the word selective for myself. I took about 2 months between the 1st draft and the remainder to sort out this. I am like a free spirit who needs variety in the most basic things of life also. Variety brings the spice in life - now I know. I dont have particular favourites in any areas, be it products, fashion, movies, songs, people, seasons... I love them all, depending on my mood that day :)
Seasons reminds me, its raining outside so beautifully.. earth is longing to be drenched in the rains from the sky , its like sky is spreading its arms and loving the earth . earth knows no limits and starts dancing through its greens , everything becomes happy , sparkling clean and blissfully beautiful. Its my favorite season. I guess again.. Rains, lush greens,music, tea in the balcony, corn on the streets, gazing at the water bodies, dancing and splashing water in puddles ... Running through water. Crazinessss gets into me. I get happy for no reason, just watching a bright yellow flower dancing on the green trees makes me go gaga :)
But yet again i have the same fancy for winters and summers toooo. Winters bring with them the much sought after pleasant climate in the much heated city of Ahmedabad. Starts the much awaited months of some amazing theatre plays at Natrani, rock concerts , coffeess at open cafes, holidays , weddings, NRI friends visits, parties , colorful sweaters and shawls, pav bhaji, gajar ka halwa ...ummmm yum yum , everything hot in cold weather , food, drinks n maybe a winter fling > ? ( Unlike western countries where Summer romances are awaited , here winters is the best season to meet new people, how ? Frens n their frens n their frens ...Dont get the brain racing , i m yet to explore that !!)
Lets forget the spring cuz we dont really experience that but summer , sweet summer comes with the scents of mango , sugarcane juice,colorful golas, again vacations, Movie time, :) I just realised i think i get lot of pleasure from food, season ,parties and people.. Very human, aint it ? :P
The blog is aptly named choice when i read from top to bottom, choice of following one topic or writing randomly, anything which comes to my mind .. And thats what i did, again followed my 2 voices in the head :)))
