I like rocks more than sand.. i like sunsets more than sunrises (maybe because to see a sun rise one needs to get up painfully early.. and i am not a believer in effort making :D) and for these reasons only (and i stress on ONLY) i like Mumbai bandstand.
Sitting there in the evenings, with the cool breeze and the vast expanse of the sea has a calming effect on me. I prefer sitting there alone because people have this annoying habit of trying to make conversation just when one is mulling over the questions of life (or watching a movie).
It's been a long time since i went there.. the busy schedules, traffic, money and pure laziness... I think it's time to make another trip.. like a pilgrimage.
I like the salty taste of the breeze there, and the rush of the waves, the eager enthusiasm as the waves rush to the rocks and the zest with which they crash on them only to be broken into pieces, and then come rushing again... this is soooooooooo much like what they call the circle of life.. the same thing over and over again.. with renewed enthusiasm and energy every time, the feeling that this time it'll be something different. Now i don't want to go into the karmic level of how everyone-who-is-born-has-to-die and so on.. but even at the individual level i feel that we end up running around in circles :D
Here i can also see the difference between me and the sea, the sea has so much turbulence near the shore and such calm in the center, and i have apparent calm on the surface and turbulence inside.. so maybe sitting there has a destructive interference, where the opposites cancel each other out…. Wait a minute.. what am I doing writing it here… Bandstand; here I come…
