Do you think you can find one story a day for 365 days? asked my friend.
Sure, why not? If I am going to live for 365 days then I can easily tell 365 stories. If I don't find a story to tell on a particular day then that would mean I hadn't lived my life that day.
My friend thought I had gone bonkers and mumbled, "impossible, you can't".
Yesterday, just for a moment I thought my friend's prediction might come true.
That's when I chanced upon a story that would stay with me forever.
It was a beautiful sunset. But then how many sunset-stories can you write. Is my life made of only sunsets and sunrises? (Though I ain't complaining).
As I was standing there thinking about it, the little voice in the head said: All that is here has already been; all that is said has already been; all that is done has already been...the one thing that hasn't `been' is your vision. How you see all that has `been' is new and that is your story....
The sunset was never the same again.
This image is of a sunset viewed through a cotton kerala towel.
And the perspectives changed.
As they say -there is always more than one way. And you write a new story every time you explore a new path.
