United in Separation

It is such a strange experience! Feeling happy and at peace with herself even when there is no evident reason...Looking around everything is chaotic and disturbing. Then suddenly why is she smiling all by herself? Life has been harsh very harsh indeed in the last few years. But then why this sudden grin?

Nothing seemed correct. Losing dear ones, some actually others because of their incomprehensible behavior. Blame games, accusations, back stabbing, insults, injuries- both physical and spiritual, nothing left....Life was worse than a nightmare. There seemed to be a big VOID in life that was impossible to be filled.

Hatred, angst, anger, feeling of being cheated, replaced...had all but become a part of her or rather she a part of them. Life was dragging itself, waking up in the morning without a purpose, eating lunch mechanically, smiling because it was easier than explaining tears, working robotically, lying on the bed trying to sleep with open eyes....No path no destiny! Questioning herself what did she do to deserve this and yes sometimes the Almighty.Asking where does she go now?


The question got answered sooner than expected.....You came in like a breath of fresh air from nowhere. She was completely astounded to find you at exactly the same place where she had lost herself. You holding a mirror fearlessly into her soul.Was this a signal from Him? Who were you? Why were you there? From whence you came?

Your words were a balm to her bruised soul. Was this really happening or was it a work of her imagination? Were you there or had she become completely insane? Smiles returned and this time genuine ones.She felt regaining the same self. As if her lost soul had again found way back to her body!


But certain things and people are not meant to be together physically. The period of togetherness was brief and separation looming large. She had no idea that another surprise was waiting to embrace her. Although they parted yet there were no tears this time...

Infact there was smile and a feeling of happiness. Was she happy not to be with you? Or was it something else...? Their togetherness taught her to be Happy, to smile and to love. You changed the way she looked at life! There was no sorrow, no frowns...only love and good wishes for all! Your attitude towards life had transformed her completely. She was a different person. Your love for everyone made her realise how selfless one can be. There is life beyond ones griefs and mundane troubles...Although no more together they are still united. United at a higher plane beyond human understanding and logic. You told her once how you feel good thinking of her which she could not understand then...And today ironically she too feels good thinking of you the same way! Was this destined? Did you know about it from the very beginning?

Separated and yet united in separation...How contradictory this is...You came and with your spiritual touch she is happy even being away from you...But are they really away? Has this separation ultimately united them forever........
