"THE FAIRY LIGHT SERIES"

“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” 
― John Muir

I am lost, amidst the hues of the subtleties, amidst the homeliness in the breeze.
I am lost , but I certainly do not need to be found.
I am lost , only to find a meaning, a feeling.
I am lost , to show gratitude to solitude.

" OUR LOVE
WAS BORN
      OUTSIDE
THE WALLS,
         IN THE WIND,
   IN THE NIGHT,
   IN THE EARTH ,
AND THAT'S WHY
           THE CLAY AND
THE FLOWER
       THE MUD AND
    THE ROOTS
  KNOW YOUR NAME."

It is quiet surreal , to be feeling the paradoxes of life. The box i was stuck in , has a hole, i managed to pierce one. I see light through it . I have always imagined how life would be like, I have heard of it to be harsh , but light seems beautiful. It's warm .
 
I felt wind this morning , it had a smell, probably of love. It filled my soul like never before. When it blew through my hair , I felt that i have grown them so long for this only.

Today i have cut a window out of my box . I see green when look out of it , the birds sang songs to me today . My body responded to their tune unknowingly, and the darkness in my box had rays of light to play with, the wind could not stop but mess with my hair , and smell of freshness filled me in.
I felt life today.

HAMINASTU

Ruhey Haminastu -

You might be wondering by now , what the title actually means. It means ,
             " if heaven is anywhere , it is here, it is here, it is here"

We live our lives striving for a better existence after death, all of our good deads are certainly because of the fact that we want to be devoid of the chaos we live in right now ,and so that while we slip into the eternal slumber , we get to experience eternal happiness, heaven .
           
 I have spent fifteen years thinking the same way before i put my eyes behind the lens and traveled places - the term 'haminastu' started making a lot more sense to me . I realized , the heaven we are thirsty of , is right in front of our eyes. We all are waiting for that one thing to do ,that is right for us, that will make us realize what heaven actually feels like, that just shouts 'you' to you, that justifies your existence, quenches your thirst and satisfies your soul .

I found the simple pleasures of life through the lens of my camera, I discovered my heaven through the viewfinder and it feels just right.

This is my first blog . Here i am , looking forward to share my interpretation of heaven with you. :)
