There are those days... sunny ones... The ones when you can
read “happiness” written across the sky in capital letters...The days when you
can see the forget-me-not blue of the sky reflected in your friend’s eyes...The
days when laughter flows as easily as water falling off a mountainside to form
a fall...Those days when you get up late and worry about missing the first
lecture and then find out that it got cancelled...The days when you cross all
limits of craziness and fail to feel embarrassed...The days when the only
stomach aches you have are because you were laughing too hard...Those days that
make you want to conquer the world...Those days when nothing can go wrong...
And then there are the dark, cloudy, rainy days... Not the
type of rain that you can enjoy but the other one which hurts you by the sheer
force of it...Those days when your senses tell you that it is daytime but you
can’t see the sun...Days when the rhythm of the rain matches the rhythm of the saddest
song you have ever heard...Days when you don’t even realize when and how
daylight faded into the absolute darkness of the night....Days when the sound
of thunder repeatedly reminds you of the single blow that made you lose trust
on your dear friend...Days when the sight of the rain remind you of people,
places and faces that would never be the same again...Days when your tears
become one with the rain hitting your face...Days that were never right...
And then there are days like this one...When you can ponder
over everything with the dispassionate observation of a teacher grading the
term papers...When you can smile and be on the verge of crying in the span of a
heartbeat...When you can’t decide whether this day was sunny or shadowed...
