When did you last look at the sky above you?

Don't stare at the laptop/desktop screen.

If the answer is ages - Go have a look. Its surreal.

If the answer is yesterday  - Dream less and work more ;)

Thanks Mridul for the spark ;)

  2. On a serious note, this is not my thought, but I have heard great people say. Everyday you must experience 5 minutes
    1. Earth - Walk bare foot
    2. Water - Pour water on your body (not hot water :) )
    3. Sky - Sit in open space, under the sky
    4. Sun - let sunlight fall on you in the morning.
    5. Air - Take deep breath

    Ironically we do not have 5 minutes in our lives.

  3. @Vinita : WOW! Amazing to read those 5 thoughts- and the best was the irony part! I so agree with you on that! Are we all too busy in rat race..always?

  4. Run, run rabbit run
    Dig that hole, forget the sun,
    And when at last the work is done
    Don't sit down it's time to dig another one
    For long you live and high you fly
    But only if you ride the tide
    And balanced on the biggest wave
    You race toward an early grave.

    That's from the song Breathe from the Album "Dark side fo the moon" from PInk Floyd.
    Not the full lyrics though...

    But this is what was running in my mind when I saw the kind of thoughts you are having..

    Well..Checking out the sky outside is not just to take a walk with our dreams but also to share our laughters and tears with it. But yes.. for that to happen.. we should get out of the Office and be away from the traffic which takes all your attention on the road and stop staring at some kind of CRT or LCD screen and stop processing the thoughts which are being generated from the people you usually interact with and stop doing THAT and stop doing THIS and STOP STOP STOP.... We have made this simple life so complicated.

    All we have to do is to just get out of the office all alone and light up a smoke and enjoy the moment staring at the sky !
