Hurry to get back.

Many many times back there was chaos in you, and when I was sitting with you I got repulsed and I wanted to quickly get out. So I opened my eyes.

Many times back, there was fear and apprehension in you, about what we never knew, I was fearful of being with you, so easiest was to blink and get back.

Then sometimes back, I put a timer and sat with you thinking lets see what can happen, you showed me your pains, I cried with you, felt they were mine too, still got back as fast the timer rung. I couldn’t stick around in that pain.

Several times later, you seemed more comfortable sharing your pains and then some joys, but still some thoughts and apprehensions, I sat with you listening and responding and sometimes judging them as well. But getting out wasn’t my agenda then.

Still some more times later, whatever you had for me when I came to you, I saw or listen them all, but never did I wanted to be removed from it nor them to be changed. I realised they were there as they were and I was not in any hurry to get back.

So our journey is on…..
