Finally its raining ,its raining heavily outside while writing this blog ,yet possibilities of less mansoon this yer are not totally wiped out but this shower ,no doubt ,cooling my mind and heart and definately same is the feeling of every mumbaikar ,hoping this will continue all over india.
Last few days i was thinking over and over to write something on rain but it seem that hot endless summer wasn't allowing me.i remember school days when there was sureshot essey has to be written on topic,my favourite season, when school starts in june and to the utter surprise everybody picks up the season :rainy season.I too remember writing so many things from umbrella,paper boats,frogs,raincoats,new classrooms to the poems like
Sang Sang bholanath ,pauus padel kay,
shalebhovati tale sachun sutti milel kay!!!!!
i really would like to write on spring in school days but never did that but now i really like this season....no doubt in my mind...so what happened its mud everywhere,blocked nallahs or stopped or slow trains or disturbed traffic.Rain has ultimate power in it to overcome all this drawbacks and still lead in least of seasons for me .
First of all its a need to live after all but above that its the season which complete the cycle ,meets the need of food,water in short its a nature amazing cycle that keep city going and me too.as of now my endless wait for rain has been stopped this year.
When sitting calm ,reminding words of marathi writer sha. na. navare.....in one of his story he says dont just count ur age by rainy season....if possible try to remember ur age by remembering the rainy seasons that u can remember ...by all means ,by incidences,by changes in ur life at that time...this is really intresting excersie....i bet u cannot remember all the rainy seasons in ur life by distints rememberences in ur mind !!! to list where do i reach...i still remember my raincoat,army style hat in school days.....season when i was part of dahi handi......season when i went to rainy picnic first and so many times.....season when its heavily rained and i was out of home first time for days......season when i went trekking and about to stuck there...season of my first year diploma.....season when i first go out wid my wife in rain .....season when i travelled dharavi to chembur walking ...ohhhhhh i am just short of words here .... wet clay fragnance is still around me ...refreshing my soul.
rain is life for everybody as well its heck when it turns into disasterous mood , but thats the way nature works!!! and as far as me concerned the green face of nature is anytime close to my heart which rain bring up to us.going out on trekk is an amazing experience in these days which everyone should experience or for families there are verious hot destinations like bushi dam etc even water park in these days in not bad idea.i also like swimming in a pool while its raining.taking water drops on ur body while in water is not comparable to any finest experiences in life.
i just dont find strong reason to write all these but penning down my feeling abt rain make me feel relaxed now so its started raining...plan ur rainy season ..plan ur rainy picnics....schedules....urgent home repairs.....enjoy d moment ..enjoy d life....happy mansoon...!!!!
