There
is a pleasure and warmth in the hustle bustle of airport environments, check in,
luggage drop especially when you have to board a flight. For me, the most
exciting processes is departure scenario. The excitement, warmth, and richness
felt is so adrenaline prone. Once you board the plane,
the monotonous environment, takes overs. For years, I have heard,
creativity flows while you have the right guidance.
That
was the case for me, however, lately, over the last two years. Flying back and
forth, I have realized, creativity flows while I am in the plane, sitting. I
think I figured out the reason behind it as well.
In
this so called connected world, there is so much noise and distortion around
us, we forget our life's purpose by getting lost in its hustle n bustle. Don't
wait to pause and ponder on our life and its purpose. I am so thankful,
there is no regular phone service available in the planes, even when Wi-Fi is
available, I am glad I don’t opt the option to use one for monetary reasons.
For
men, the primary purpose to achieve in life is to fulfill their goals. If goals
are not reached, we take a cave break, lock the doors and go in hibernation to
figure out, what is going on and how to figure it out.
There
is so much going in a normal metropolitan young professional lifestyle, you
don’t get time to figure out where your life is headed.
Is
it really worth, for all the effort???? .
A
sane mind would say, Yes it is, because this is way to get Uncle Sam’s currency
and make a living.
Funny
thing, I stopped getting these creative thoughts even under right guidance.
Flights are the only way I can exercises my brain to feel better.
Nostalgia
does rarely happen in urban life. To experience nostalgia I have to board some
8+ hours flight and spend some heavy $$$ to get this feel.
But
still at the end of the day it’s worth It.!!!!
The
other day, my good friend was so right, when he mentioned how nostalgia is a
source of inspiration and to bring back good feelings. It keeps you going as
well.
Personally,
good for me to take a break from Mr. Instructor and ponder to gain some life
experiences.
For
readers out there, I would recommend, try something, which cuts you off from
this social media, virtual and noisy revolution, where Google does
not guide you, where tweeter does not tell how your friends are doing and where
text messages don't greet you as replacement for real humans.
Try
something else, when you and your past memories make you nostalgic and you
realize, this is the place you always wanted to be in.That's the feeling
you always longed for?
If
no to any / all of the above description keep the faith, and Trust
HIM.
If
you say yes, to all the above, then what’s next??? ,
Get your adrenaline pumping , until they drain you out , and land up sitting in a place, surrounded by strangers , not talking to you or you are not interested in talking back. A momentary world free of Google. It would be a perfect time to let your brain exercise on it own. To enjoy being nostalgic, don't forget to listen to some Qawali soundtracks.
