A dose of ecstasy

How do you define your "dose of ecstasy"? well, I just experienced one.. 


Today, I woke up with a melancholy feeling. A feeling of being stuck at home all the time, as none of my friends were willing to go out because of the weather since so many days..! I switched on the television, and there they were, the news channels, babbling about the weather crossing 63 year records and stuff. I switched off the idiot box. I know, that's what they are paid for-- exaggerating things to intolerable extents. Till afternoon, the heat was at its worst. So was my mood. I was in the lousiest and the most irritated mood. 


The temperature outside was on a high, and so was the temperature inside my head. I desperately needed a break. Which, somehow I wasn't getting. Out of boredome, I slept in the afternoon, and when I woke up... The weather was amazing.. it was raining. . I felt ecstatic as the cool breeze touched my face, and the little drops seeped deep into me, filling my heart with sanctity. Everything seemed so wonderful, the trees brighter, the birds happier. The feeling was amazing. It was exhilarating..I went out to get some jalebis (nothing is better than munching into hot jalebis in a pleasant weather). What an evening it was. 


I wonder how, sometimes the smallest of things cause the biggest of changes. Happiness lies in such little things. We lament for being unable to make it to the hill stations in summer holidays. Why not experience the happiness in your own balcony? You just need to experience the happiness hidden in small things. Just keep your senses open. :) :)
