The 'Missing' Element

Since past few months, I was getting a feeling that somewhere for some reason my life was incomplete. Though I was tied up with some or the other thing throughout the day and hardly had any free time in hand but still I felt as though...there is something missing.
But the question is...What is that 'MISSING ELEMENT'?


A cup of coffee? Shopping? Chit-chatting? Making new friends? Meeting old friends?.......And the answer was 'NO'...So what was it....???
It was Sunday morning when I got up and completed my routine morning chores. My parents had to go out for some family function and inspite of being a sunday, I had no special plans. So as usual I tried texting few friends but everyone had some set plans and nothing worked out. But I couldn't afford being at home all alone so I decided to go for some shopping. I went to Phoenix Market City, a lovely mall in the city. The moment I entered the mall...suddenly something clicked me....today I am gonna shop only for MYSELF. And from that moment onwards....I literally behaved like a free mad bird and shopped like crazy. So many things...accessories, cosmetics, clothes...but mainly...all that was for me and only me.
 After all that shopping...I went to Costa coffee on the top floor. Just when I was sipping that coffee, sitting alone over there...I noticed something. This something was a mere feeling of Satisfaction which was missing all these days. And the reason behind this satisfaction....was the fact that after such a long time...I spent some quality time with myself.
A cup of coffee with buddies was a routined activity, going out for shopping with anyone and everyone never required a reason, chit-chatting with people around me was something very usual, making new friends was nothing tough and meeting the old ones was something I always enjoyed thoroughly.
But while doing all these things I was unable to discover that missing element...a cup of coffee all alone can give so much pleasure, shopping for my own self without any reason can be so enjoyable, interacting with myself and re-discovering that friend of mine within me was something beyond words.
It was then that I decided...however busy I am and wherever I am...I will always spend some quality time with myself and for myself.
I was always of the opinion that...'I am my Own Best friend and My Own Worst Enemy'....and I will always stand upto it.
Feels so good that I have finally discovered The 'Missing Element' in my life.

Peeping out...


I am totally blank at this moment. The only reason for writing this blog is the mere fact that I wish to peep into the outside world which I have been missing for a pretty long time.
I am keeping quite unwell from past few days. This illness is the first such event in my life wherein I had to lie in the hospital bed for a week's time with those endless saline bottles and medicines.
Since then, I am leading a cut-off life from the outside world. Be it my endless hangouts with my buddies, shopping for my bro's wedding, college lectures, going alone for rides, missing out on all my favourite food items and Blogging ofcourse. Through this blog, I wanna take my first step of bouncing back to the outside world and my routine activities. Thats the only reason why I thought of writing down this blog today inspite of being totally blank!!!!
