Differences Are Negated

Differences Are Negated
A thousand cymbals of music resonated in our hearts even as I counted the threads of silence spread over my eyes in the form of a curtain that filtered light reflected by her presence before me. The incumbent situation predicated a conversation that was to be conducted in silence. It was quite a tough proposition because there were such intense emotions in our hearts gurgling through our beings for a long time that wanted an instant output, and typically, there was nothing to stop them from coming out of our hearts now except for the deafening silence around us.

It propelled in us an urge to synchronise our conversation with itself. Silence has been one of the many antagonists bent on changing the course of my life for a long time, but it has kept me away from many negative forces in life; thankfully, it has built walls around me strong enough to deter many forces of civilization that threatened to destroy me once upon a time. I came out of the ordeal safe and sound, but sometimes I wish I was a part of the crowd that is crushed in the stampede that follows the ordinary vagaries of civilisation.

There has been a typical joy associated with being different, but the difference has been pronounced in quite a loud and typical format in the recent past. In some ways, it has been so vociferous that it has managed to damage my eardrums in such a way that they have become insensitive to all decibels of sound. The damage has been so strong that it has made me drift away from my peers and contemporaries in a negative manner with the difference being heard only by me for it has been articulated in a typical manner.

I should consider this to be a blessing in disguise for differences are not appreciated in the world we live in unless they are pronounced in a typically different way, but certainly not in the different way they have been pronounced in my case. I have to do my best to modify the difference to suit the way the world likes it to be in, and  it should collate with my preferences too. There have been strong pointers in the difference being articulated in this manner, but I shall have to wait for some more time before the difference becomes exactly what I want it to be. It might never become what I want it to be, I never know.

I badly wish it was possible to rectify the path of the rivulet that diverged from the main river at a certain point of time. It has collected a lot of alluvium soil, but the                point of contention is that it diverged from the main river. It shouldn’t have done so. It was sure to have collected a lot more alluvium if it had been a part of the main river, but its separation was inscribed in its fate.

The time of divergence was extremely crucial for my healthy sustenance; moreover, it is very difficult to identify the point where I parted ways with my peers. It is more important to identify the angle of divergence rather than the point of tangent.

Thankfully, the angle of divergence has been reduced to a minimum in my case. This has been in my favour in many ways, while it has worked out to be against me in some esoteric ways. The acute angle has pushed an element of positivity into my life that is quite difficult to find in case of a similar situation where an identical divergent angle dominates and the difference being quite loud when pronounced in its typical manner.

The arduous task before me is to diminish the difference to zero. With her a part of my life now, I didn’t feel anything to be a tough job. Life was going to be a bit easier for me now, at least this was what I believed our interaction to signify. A simplified format of life was about to unfurl itself like a red carpet over the track before us.

There were already a lot of colourful flowers along the way that were to signify all the different colours of life we were to be exposed to over the time we were to spend together. There are to be several sequels of sunrise and sunset in the days to come. A perfect harmony between the two celestial events can never be guaranteed, but we are going to do our best to ensure a healthy and comfortable symbiosis between the two.

There is a sun rising high after its nocturnal dip in the world outside the room we are in today. A typical radiance is emanating from its rays; it is going to reduce the gap between us every time it showed itself in the horizon with its typical warmth and tenor, we felt sure, and it was welcome to do it every single day of our lives.

I hope we have a long life.
