After the dust settles

What’s gonna happen, after the dust settles?

Welcome another day, after the dust settles?

Overlook the burnt corners, after the dust settles?

Clear the charred remains, after the dust settles?

Look past the teary-eyed, after the dust settles?

Pass the buck onto the next one, after the dust settles?

Dutifully follow the law, after the dust settles?

Wait for answers long due, after the dust settles?

Forget the bad dream, after the dust settles?

Lie in anticipation, after the dust settles?

The rush

Every life needs a particular rush to move along. An adrenalin rush.

The source could be your work, your fitness regime, your girlfriend, your philanthropy - anything. It should challenge you every living moment, pushing you ahead, to the next minute, to the next day....

And on any given day or for a string of few days or weeks, if you manage to stay away from this challenge, it starts affecting you subconsciously. You feel thrown off your regular course of activities. You might turn cranky or less interested in your daily activities. Your whole outlook towards witnesses a paradigm shift.

Conflict of emotions is indispensable to human life. Every emotion has its purpose of existence. This clash is necessary for every person to realize the roller-coaster ride that lies ahead.

But,most of all, the rush gives you a sense of existence - the reason that extends the meaning of life beyond mere survival.

The sleep is still in my eyes
The dream is still in my head
I heave a sigh and sadly smile
And lie a while in bed
I wish that it might come to pass
Not fade like all my dreams...

Stupor.Haze. Beckoned by the voices that didn't reach me.

Logic for the masses - pretty futile.

A nighter 'tis.
