Another stretch of the loop; 



Missing you, I am missing you,

Song of the day ---
I don't know why I dreamed of you.

Love was not at the first sight, rather more of a first shyness.
It is ironic how time saving technology has converted us to zombies gluing ourselves to the screens of all sort. Technology has boomed since the Internet era --- every year we have new gadget to play around with. Technology suppose to save time and suppose to simplify our lives but people have abuse them in different ways.
I couldn't sleep the whole Friday night. I was sitting in front of TV news with the laptop on the side while being very very sick from cold and flu. It was just too painful to see the disaster. Japan is one of the model develop countries with fascinating culture and traditions. I have always envied their unity, pride, and work ethics. Not only the devastating earth quake, the destruction of the Tsunami, followed by nuclear threat, Japan is trying to withheld triple threat. Their government is trying their best saving the lives of people in need. They are most prepared, calm and enduring --- yet when nature shows their indifferent cold side, when nature shows how powerful it can impose on human creativity, my heart just become too painful. 


When are you going to call me? I thought about it every single day --- now and then whenever my mind wonder around the memory game. I called you so many times --- but I guess your mind is buried in the load of daily life. I cannot blame you. I would have been too.
Cherry Blossoms were very beautiful just a week or two ago. Pink blossoms were shinning brightly against the bright blue sky in a nice cold breeze. It was just a week ago. Now that cherry blossoms are lying on the green grass drenched in the soaked rain. The sky is dark gray --- rain clouds seems almost coming down on the earth, and embracing the top of the mountain. The storm has arrived. It might even snow in two days. The temperature is record low since 1976. One can hear the heavy rain spluttering over the window pane. The sound of the rain falling through the gutter could be a constant faint background music of the time being. While reading a sad book, drinking over a cup of coffee, and thinking over the fact that the combination will not be able to let one sleep effortlessly. The sky is crying. The earth is embracing the painful tears. Cherry blossom petals are lying helplessly. The rain will eventually wash away the dust. Tears will carry away the burden of pain. And when the storm is over, when the sun comes out --- everything will be looking afresh new --- just like a new born baby. And when the sadness is over, when the tears dried over --- happiness will be boundless laughing amusingly --- just like innocently being in love for the very first time.
Days passing by
In the land of hazy dreams, --- I dream of you for the first time. It was vivid, it was so clear, it was as crispy as a fresh rice cake. Even having conversations calmly across the big dinning table, you are beaming with a big smile. I am happy to feel your joy. I saw you draw a picture for a display room --- it was undone --- it looks so darkly themed. I criticized on how dark the presentation is and talking aimlessly on how you should lighten up the theme. Then, again I was in the dinning room looking at the indoor fish pond pod puzzling why I am here. I saw your phone bill on the table $300 on your account --- and I was wondering why it is such an expensive bill. Your love one came and told me about the things that are told about me --- I was speechless. I wish I could evaporate right there --- and wonder again why I am here like this. Your home is painted in green mostly -- I would just paint off white instead of green. I went to the restroom to freshen up and saw the drawing room on the way. I saw a new drawing on the table. It is changed now as I have suggested. Somehow, I had a feeling of satisfaction --- accomplishment ---may be I was there for that purpose. I drew a Jasmine flower very recklessly on an empty paper and I left --- just like that --- without any goodbyes.
