you lighten my world
Hello World,
Its like going back to where it all started.
Wonder if you heard of the power outage in Washington state.This year when I moved in, they got the worst rain,worst snow,and worst storm. First time ever since they can remember there is no power outage.It may take a day or a week for it all to be back to normal.
For me, I got a friday off. A bonus long weekend, whats better then sleep thru it???
I was not sure that there is work today or not, so I drove to work anyways. It did not strike me till I witnessed a 'road closed' sign. To take an alternate road I went via the city. It's so funny to see how slowly and gradually electricity has become a basic need. think of it- how many years ago was it even invented.
Today the whole life stops without power. There was not work today, no internet,no cooking,no phone network, no nothing.
Life has come to a standstill.
The traffic lights were like the bodies without life.Ironically staring down at you.
Amazing, how everything moved back to basix.
honestly - Its like a puzzle I played when I was young. find the route home. where you have have to find a route back home and there are multiple options and of all only one of the road takes u home and rest all run into a deadends.
Well, I thought no work, so I will just call all my friends that I know- deadend- no network
ok - I will just sit and cook - no power so no stove.
hmm intesting, basically nothing to do...so I move to extreme basix
Sleep.
Its so amazing what role that electrict plays in our lives today.
Stores are closed as the credit card wont work.
no food as no stoves.
no gas stations open - so eventually cars wont run.
no phones.
amazing , back home in india, if you are not in the metropolitan city you get power only for 10 hrs a day. but since the the whole development is not so much the dependency is so less. Power outage is a way of life.
Blore may be different as that again is much developed.
Flip side of development. Hard to imagine how somehting can become such an imporant part of life so soon.
Can anyone beat that. :)
lesson learnt: 'I love you' is a passe, when someone says- 'you lighten my world' that means something.
more later.
