It was no wonder not just an ordinary day of my extra ordinary life.
Sitting at my friend’s room’s window and enjoying the lovely cool soft breeze over my face. Over and over I tried tucking my hair beind my ears but ahh! This new hairstyle…makes it impossible to have decent well set locks. Some lightening and followed by few growling clouds. Soon it gets so dark in the room and I prefer that somehow. I love the sopping wet view during rainy days and especially the view from this room is just as good as any view of a star from the telescope. I can see it all and to as far as my eyes could find its vision. I believe this is one of the best points to live in a skyscraper apartment at the top floor!
Suddenly it started raining heavily and everybody started running here and there on the street. The water in blotch got accumulated on the road ready to make its mark soon. The traffic turned bad and slow. I was so glad that I was at home and not rushing in the streets. I was here from this window enjoying my rainy muddy flair view and cool gentle wind. My friend soon handed over a cup of coffee in my hands. Hummm…the aroma and the warmth of the coffee was just the most ideal thing in the lucid lazy showery moment. Moreover, anything prepared my friend and me sitting on a slothful cozy couch is the best thing indeed!
Suddenly we saw on the street a group of people walking and dripping wet with the muddy splash of the speedy running vehicle. The vehicle went away in a speed and the people kept shouting for a long. At this I murmured, “Why do fools walk in the rain?”
The statement latter came with an eccentric jiffy instant for me...I could not laugh nor could I ignore my own words!
~ “Did I call them fool…?!” I wondered
~ I could not laugh, as many times it has happened to me too. I have been also splattered with dirt and muddy water by a speedy vehicle walking down on the road and trust me it is the most unlucky and irritating moment of the day.
~ Perhaps, cannot ignore my those random words too, as I do know that there is no point in the outcry and shouting over, what has already happened…and moreover it is the Rain no one to be blamed yet a joy to be claimed!
“Yeah! Those fools…” replied my friend quietly agreeing to my words.
~ Soon she dragged me to her home’s balcony. It was still drizzling…and the moment the raindrops touched my skin...I realized it was a magic all around.
~ The rain had its rhythm and our body swayed and danced to its tune.
Looking up at the sky and tiny raindrops…I said, “I really love rain!”
We had great fun together!
She soon shouted Roger Miller’s beautiful quote that says, “Some people walk in the rain, others just get wet”.
Very true indeed!
~ Two people experienced the same event but reacted in totally different ways? We surely did :)
~ Those people were really fools…who were shouting in desperation to the trifling moment and not caring to realize that life is too short to cry over fleeting moments.
~ We also walked in the rain but were enjoying and shouting in celebration to every dribble of raindrop that enveloped us in happiness.
Yeah fools having fun with fully drenched body!
~ And the Rain definitely follows the fools!
Perhaps, “We are fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance…” I quoted the moment of bliss… and we continued to our semi swings in the revolved dazzling rain!
Guess what, my friend all of a sudden jumped in the gathered water in the corner of the boundary and a huge splash over ME….before I could roar on her…a loud laugh followed listening to my friend’s side, “Only a fool tests the depth of the water with both feet…and that what I did!”
“It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt”…I exclaimed..! No wonder my friend is definitely the biggest fool on this earth and another is ME who gives company to her...and I love that way and all ways!

ReplyDeletenice read!!

What a fool u are....
ReplyDeleteRain.....Mud....walks....and then a fool..... WHAT ELSE?... thats it?.... A foolish post in four words and it touches the right chords in the most simple and human way. So, all it needs is to be a fool to bring out life essence in just one post, that too, in 4 words. I thought it takes books.
Wow...am feeling tender and blossomed. Is foolishness so simple and natural?
Being a deserved fool, it gives immense satiation to read a post on fool from a promising fool and the feeling is awesomely foolish. Very few are lucky to be true fools. I do cherish the innocence of foolishness. It is bliss. The advantage of being a fool is that one can write whatever he wants to irrespective of certain obligations and expectations which is not possible if u r something like genius/intellectual/blah blah....
Very few can spread the purity of foolishness in an aromatic way. Very few can use the word fool in a breezing way and it takes to be a Rachana to handle the word fool, not to fool us, but to mesmerise us(yeah, it has unsaid message tucked in). Yea, i agree , only a fool can celebrate the intricacies of life to the fullest . It is quite easy to write on fool in a wise way, but, it really needs expert and original fools to write in a foolish way. I mean it, Where are the rich flavours and strong aromas if we apply intellectual parameters on a fool post.
Thanks for helping me to realise that am yet to become a rounded fool.
Kudos for painting some colourful foolish colours on the foolish word fool in such an intriguing foolish way for half baked fools like me. Now, am glad enough to know the foolish shades in you. The conduction is working.
Excuse me, foolish madam, is it possible for u to write few more foolish posts so that i can bring out all the undiscovered foolishness in my life and hence drench myself in the rain of foolishness forever in a muddy way.
I am not wise enough to ignore this post. As of now, it is top contender for voting(Do fools vote or enjoy all fool posts? lemmi think? :) )
PS : I am feeling like to write a entire new post on foolishness(am eager and energetic)
PS* : Your post is quite better than mine by miles(sorry for being wise here)
PS** : Is my comment foolish enough?
foolish cheers,
Mahesh Fool Kalaal
Well, well, so someone is enjoying rain. It's pleasure to see that, coz I know how it feels when you take a lazy walk through the watery streets, drenched in rain, and people standing by the shade (trying to save themselves!!!) watching you. They feel you are a fool but envy you at the same time for your carefree nature. Although I envy you right now as the scorching summer hit is burning through Bangalore city. :)
ReplyDeleteFooled again and again!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed reading the nice rainy foolish post! (oops I said that!) Its fun all around when rain involves!
And yes, this post acted as salt in my wounds! Its raining hard in North East these days and here I am waging war with Delhi heat - already done with 20 gallons of iced water, similar amount of coke!
Keep the spark alive....
Cheers Life..

I don't understand why no one has commented on your post yet. well, may be I am lucky enough to be the first one.
ReplyDeleteYour post starts out to describe another mundane day in your life but it gradually turns to the topic and points out the various 'foolish' things that we tend to do in life like the one you pointed out about missing out on the fun only because something bad happened to us temporarily.
Great work, keep writing, you have great potential.

ReplyDeleteWhy Fools comment when someone walks in the rain? :)
The word "obvious" is missing from a fool's dictionary and fools do "lots of experiments" on the way and discover the true essence of life.
They discover the obvious way of doing things and the way world is.
Being a Fool is the ultimate smartness I believe.
~Compliment
"What a foolish post!"
The way I(fool) are...
Mitul
Lemme tell you onething it aint fun to get drenched in the rain when your on your way to college or you work place or an interview.
ReplyDeleteBut it is totally different if you are at home having nothing to do. It would great if we let our hair down.
Everything has its moments. We are fools in each others eyes.
What i think everyone equally foolish and and intelligent in their own way.
Loved it. An excellent read!!
