I thought if I should write about "this"
incident. It is trivial, petty and does not carry any
significance to anyone. It does not have a moral or a
take-home-lesson but still I decided to write about it. Mainly,
because I want to record those lovely moments, to be able to
come back to them and motivate us to do it more often.
It is one of those evenings when we were
supposed to hit the grocery store and stock up on necessities
like milk. It was one of those rare times when it slips of our
minds. But it does happen and we realize it at 5am. Out of milk,
out of caffeine to start a day is not the best way, as you
probably know.
So we decide to do what every other person in
US does, hit Starbucks for a morning cuppa. Surprisingly we were
ready, 20 minutes early than usual and we headed to the nearest
off-the-main-road Starbucks. Being the time and place it was,
there were few lingering joggers enjoying their drink. A few
minutes later, a few dollars lighter, a chai tea latte and a
mocha cappuccino in hand we sat watching the sun rise on a warm,
humid Texas day.
There is something so mystic and special
about watching the sunrise with a loved one. Something so
exhilarating when you enjoy the morning warmth and share a
friendly banter. Forgetting the day ahead at work, the daily
grind of life, the chores, the bores and what not... makes life
better!
Twenty minutes later, we were in our
respective cars heading to work.
We promised we'll do it again, watch the sun
rise together and smile! Forget the pressures and live and enjoy
the time in hand! We'll do it... soon!
