Some random thoughts...

As the years pass on and we grow up ...people say we are maturing and as we mature so should our senses but what i feel is that our sense of feeling and appreciating the beauty and intricacies of nature becomes weaker and this is the great tragedy that most of us don't seem to notice, it deprives us of many moments of absolute and pure joy... 
 Reading all this  you would be thinking what am i talking about, what are you missing out on......have you ever taken a moment to think that the aroma of the soil that spread all over the place with the first summer rain , where has it gone missing now?? In the burning June heat that distant 'Amaltas" tree with its blooming yellow flowers seemed to say to you ....nothing can be achieved without hardships my dear friend.....why that tree has turned silent all of a sudden?? or is it still whispering.. may its just our "maturing" that has led us to believe trees don't speak...not anymore!!
Do you miss the feeling that the dancing flame of a candle brought on a chilly December night?? Have you ever counted the shining stars on a dark winter night .....Do you miss the feeling of joy that just the announcement of summer holidays brought.....have you lately felt that you are not enjoying Eids as you used to do??.......these and many more examples make me believe that as the curtains fall on the age of innocence ...the small moments of happiness and joys get lost in the crowd of thoughts going through your head.....we strive for so much yet we let this amazing ability ....this magical gift slip through our fingers.....
Sit alone for a while and think and trust me you would come up with your own list...and may be you will finally realize what you are missing out on
