Around the world in 60 seconds!

The mind’s become quite the wanderer. It’s been travelling rapidly, and in an unorderly, non-sequential fashion, around the world!

It sometimes drops in at an Irish pub – loud, live music, funny cackles, clinking of alcohol glasses! Or then it takes a walk along the pretty countryside – pristine and green!

It also hops to Paris and breathes in the romance and enjoys the brightly lit evening sky. It stands at the foothills of the Alps, and looks around with unbelieving awe – ‘I’m actually here’!

It travels through the London streets, and smiles at the undependable weather!

It wades along the canals of Venice, It takes in the beauty of Greece, It surrounds itself with the wonders of Turkey and It lazes in the sun of Bali.

It strolls through the vineyards of Western Australia, the lushness of the Reef.

It admires the beauty of Zealand, and tries fathoming the might of the Mafia in Sicily.

It also sits in darshan lines at Puttaparthi, appreciative of the Divine Grace of seeing its Creator in the physical form, and then it also experiences the sheer love and joy of Pune, coz that’s home.

Oh, it travels wondrously to and fro, here and there, imagining and creating sights as it moves.

And when it settles down, it makes me smile. And I think in the thinking space of my wandering mind, that someday, very soon, we’ll take a trip together :)
