Adventures on wheels and in life.
The fog of time is often absolute. It tends to envelop everything that is past. We learn to live in the present and worry about the future. We forget things beyond yesterday.
And then once in a while, the fog lifts. For that one split second, one sees the path one has taken. A path strewn with laughter and sadness, with friends and fighting, with everything that has brought us where were. Little things. Great things. Precious things.

Fog & clouds hang over the cliffs and nearby river in perpetuity as if in a scene from an Amazon jungle movie. Surrounded by fog on the riverside one evening, I’ve never felt more along when among people. That places is your deepest thoughts etched out in 3D. The extremely lonely, scary and romantic tourist lodge on the other side of the river is the place to be with panning views of the valley.

Ever wondered if that 18 wheeler hurtling towards you has lost control? Or is it just fate playing games with you? Ever wondered how many times you messed up and didn’t tell anyone because no one noticed? Ever wondered how many times someone else did that to you? Take the reins of your life in their hands and steered wherever they liked.

The clock has sped through the hours
Through times of laughter and despair
I open my eyes in a different world
The journey between the old and new, lost.
Leave a CommentThe innocuous looking message popped up on his screen that rainy Sunday afternoon.
“Hey! How are you?”
He would have thought about it for about half a second if it wasn’t for the sender’s name.
“Five years!”, he thought to himself, “Has it really been that long?”
