 MYSTERIOUSLY INTERESTING


There are two things in the world that have the ability to draw a person to them unconsciously.

Subconsciously you will find your thoughts and focus being directed to them. Though you can’t explain, you find yourself fascinated by them.

You find them mysteriously interesting.
       
       A.  FIRE

Why it is mysterious yet interesting?

You are sitting on a tree stump around a fire in a dimly lit cottage on the edge of a forest; silence is your companion except for a few chirps of crickets here and there. It is a moonless night with lots of stars in the night sky. You watch intently the hearth fire as it dances in the darkness.

The flame of the hearth flickers as it burns silently yet is untamed consuming everything on its way. It steadily yet passionately eats into the wood turning it into ashes.
It is warmth that moves with delight trapping your eyes and thoughts in its rhythmical dance.

It is a light that rises up with enthusiasm sparking desire and a passion to reach to your deepest desires and wishes. It dances happily with the passion of youth, its glow casting shadows around the room.
It provides the much needed light at night chasing away the darkness and fear that comes with it and aids your eyes to see in the absence of sunlight.

It exudes warmth that seeps through the empty space to you engulfing your body comfortingly like an embrace.It captures your subconscious and brings out your innermost desires, fantasies to the surface.
        
       B.  RAIN

Now picture this, you are visiting with your beloved granny in the country side. She is reclining on an old sofa seat while you are perched on the bay window looking out toward the field that is usually lush green but because of the dry season its now dusty brown the grass barely surviving. 

As you are chatting and reminiscing on the old times, the rain starts falling quietly on this calm afternoon and the musky earthy scent from dry soil as the water makes contact hits your nostrils. You breathe in deeply and slowly exhale, it is refreshing! Conversation forgotten, granny and her voice fade into the background as you become magnetized with the thump of every drop.

There is something interesting about watching the rain drops fall from the sky silently, it’s the mystery.

The rain is water that is pure, uncontaminated by the dirt of the earth. It represents the purity of the heavens.  It is water that soaks the dry ground and quenches the bareness of the land.

With each drop bringing hope of new life, revival, growth of plants and the promise of seeing green fields and beautiful gardens once again. Rain restores lost hope and brings optimism in our hearts. It represents the hope of new life and a fresh start.

The rain drops fall one after another hitting the ground slowly but steadily over and over until they make holes. This gentle rain erodes and cuts deep into the earth making galleys. It represents the slow but sure determination to reach a goal.

The gentle torrent forms small rivers and streams, the water flowing over the land, sweeping and washing the soil and sand away. It shapes and changes the landscape in its wake.

In the same way rain washes away the tears we cry and drowns the sorrows of the heart. When sad walk through the rain or take a shower and allow the emotions to flow freely. You will feel the water soaking all the sadness and washing it away bringing you calmness to that once troubled heart.
