THE WAVES OF HAPPINESS

6th January, 2017

The cold waves kept dashing at our feet, each one moving a bit of the soft sand beneath. I held his hand firmly and looked at the infinity ahead. The sky looked surreal as the brightest star started disappearing below the horizon.
“It feels so good here,” I said gleefully. The wind kept gushing around us, as we both stood there silently for a while. Time felt frozen, literally.
I love indulging into simple pleasures of life, where insignificant moments turn into beautiful experiences. Truly, they have the power of contenting your heart with unrivalled happiness.

A SILENT CONVERSATION

1st January, 2017

12.00am

We stood right next to each other, looking up at the sky lit with fireworks. It looked absolutely majestic. The enthusiastic bunch of people around us cheered for the beginning of another new year.

“It’s an important year for us,” I whispered, moving closer to him. “Yeah,” he replied smilingly, without shifting his gaze. Words did not flow, but feelings did. Subtle expressions replaced the ever-powerful speech.

Sometimes, silences are so comforting.
