Silence of the evening

After 6 long years, for the first time we do not have a helper at home. It is just the 4 of us. It is more work, it is more care, it is more thoughtfulness, but it is certainly better. Home feels home.

Arunav not fully fit yet but he made us breakfast :) Aarushi had a long playdate with her age old friend Clarice, Rosie, Kirsty, etc. V guided them to make beautiful gingerbreads with sugar lace decorations which looked out of the world and made the kids rightfully feel very proud. The day swished past.

And now it's me again. I have a little time to sit by my window, by my desk, with my thoughts and my writing....the sun just went down, the mountains look dreamy afar, the lights begin to show up, the trees grow darker, the house is quiet, HK seems quieter - nature and super nature connects to us for a short while when we give them the chance... thoughts, connections, feelings, a few moments, the few stars.... before I go to the kitchen to cook something Arunav termed "...the yummiest because it's cooked by mamma..."

Is there something more powerful - the mountains seem to say yes.
Are there feelings beyond our consciousness - the stars seem to say yes.
Where is the creator of the painting, we do not search till intense pain forces us to.... but these few moments of silence shows glimpses of the creator omnipresent all around us, all within us - if only we take the time to look, push all away in a tremendous will to connect to that which is above us all and a love so overhwhelming covers us ... you can hear the omnipresent speak in the silence that surrounds us. Just a few moments, just a few minutes, you need no more.
