So while we were on a short getaway to Goa.., I became quite an adventurous woman….Allowing the sun to kiss every part of my body…almost all..(hold your horses)walking around bare feet on the beach early morning with the camera in my hand….
Somehow couldn't click much as I felt enchanted by the waves studded sea….but that morning something caught my fancy….and I decided to click a few pics…least did I know that it will end up conveying a subtle yet so powerful message to me…
How could I not share the same with you…
So I saw this liquor bottle rolling to n fro with the tides…
Then I saw a driftwood log too doing its bit of dancing with the mischievous tease of the waves…since it was so heavy so it would just stick to the shore….refusing to be carried away by the nudge of those flirtatious waves.
I went running like an over enthusiastic kid and picked it up before anyone else could lay their eyes or hands on my prized possession….
So I placed this log on the sand…n rested the bottle on top…coiled some greens around the bottle and…voila…we were ready for a shoot…..
I started clicking…from different angles…..I loved what I saw in the tiny window of my camera…..

Then I packed up and down to enjoy the sea again.
That is when this thought knocked at the door of my "Manas patal "-the conscious…
I realized that all the three objects in my shoot were synonyms of very poignant things in our lives….
The empty bottle..was our desires…wishes..which keep rolling on the surface of the vast ocean of our dreams…
The drift wood…was a strong support to back up our desires n wishes…..
The green tiny creeper was some subtle, gentle help…which we over look at times but it adds so much value n beauty in our lives…perhaps certain things or people who are taken for granted…but they do their selfless job silently for us
These could be people or our own strengths which our mind fails to recognize but when the subconscious mind becomes active…..it does get its recognition….
And when we put up all these three together like the perfect arrangement of a jigsaw puzzle-we create something so beautiful…..something that we cherish and feel proud of…which makes us accomplished…
We all are gifted with such strengths….but unfortunately, the self-doubts refrain us from reaching out n recognizing those….
Sit peacefully,unleash yourself…figure out your strengths…and then let the tiny wish that has been made captive in that bottle ,free itself and feel the fresh air .let that tiny wish turn into reality with the backing n support of your own strengths…or the support of the valuable people in your life….
Create something meaningful n beautiful out of nothing….that's the biggest challenge or perhaps the biggest adventure of life…
So be the adventurous woman…explore your strengths…I am trying to find mine…I get appreciated, I feel loved, I find support, I taste the sweet nectar of tiny success, at the same time I fail miserably, I feel weak, I give up, I feel riven..I fall apart, I bear the brunt of criticism… but then the adamant me starts the journey again..as I have promised myself to do something worthwhile…. ..to find the purpose of my life and create something meaningful…
How about you?
