Taking some time out of the normal rat race and getting away from it all is always good for you. Whether it is just going into a hiding inside your own blanket or taking a 3 1/2 hour flight over seas and mountains to get back to the place you call home, that time needs to be taken out, from the rat race and just get away from it all...
You place, is always your place, it is your space, be it the confines of your 3m x6m office, your 6ft x 6ft bed (with a smaller blanket) or that small piece of paradise lying beyond the clouds and hidden at the feet of the loftiest of snow capped mountains... it is your Shangri~la...
Unfortunately, as with anything else in this world, it is not a void, comprising only you, you are compelled, you are destined to cohabit it with millions of other beings, starting from the tiny bacteria, going up to the mighty elephants (there are no whales in my Shangri~la), they too are like you destined, compelled to cohabit with you...
The name of the game is co-habit... it is living in harmony with your surroundings... even the miniscule mice that run around the fields, the cacophonous rooster that wakes you up at 4 AM, that irritating cat who teases your dog, those groups of clowns who carry those flags, (reason I am calling them clowns is because quite a few of them had the flag upside down, and didn't even know it, it was quite amusing actually) are all destined to co-exist in your Shangri~la...
Why? I have absolutely no idea! I guess it is just to show you that all in life isn't exactly sukuti, momo, chowmein, chilli-chicken etc... there has to be the dusty streets outside and the breathtaking perfumonus whiff of Dhobhikhola...
None-the-less, it is my Shangri~la...
