I have a home with a decent East-West view, it offers splendid panoramic views of the sunrise as well as the sunset when the sky is splashed with colors. God paints the sky using the clouds as sponges to spread the lovely hue! The West side balcony is lovingly called as The Sunset Point by my family and friends.The East side balcony is my mother's nursery garden and we don't dare disturb her delicate plants.
It has a maple wood flooring and a big platform for Chaitra to play with her friends noisily. The blue swimming pool with the splashing kids and the lush green lawns with the elderly grannies, gossiping about their family and house maids can be seen from my balcony.We can see the small kids playing in the garden sandlot attempting to build castles with their tools. As we see straight ahead,the Yeoor hills stand like a green spectacle. Sometimes, small waterfalls are visualised during the rains.The phenomenal view keeps our eyes pleasingly busy! As the sun dips down the Yeoor hills,the horizon becomes a luminous hazy border of purple-pink and scarlet red. I fail to understand why people pay exorbitant money,travel to faraway lands to see this sight when they can enjoy it without spending a penny from the cool confines of my home.
You could just sit there with hot cups of tea or coffee for hours together without getting bored for a moment.The guys could enjoy a beer or whisky with soft sad ghazals playing in the background on my stereo.The night time arrives with cool hill side breeze ruffling your hair. The sad unused neglected fan has become lethargic and pleads for some exercise but stays calm all the time.
This is the best spot of our home-The Sunset Point!
Mercifully, no building tower has dared to come up and obstruct our magnificent view.
I pray to god that this view prevails for a long time to come.
I believe that this divine place could solve any tussles between lovers without any words being spoken. The view alone, would compel them to forgive each other!
Hold On ! Please Hold On.
I sincerely do not recollect the last time when I saw this view in my wife's company or alone. I must have sat once or twice in the last three years since I bought this place. We are so busy that we never get time to sit and lovingly talk to our own family. Our evenings are busy with the never ending agony of our patients who demand our unfailing attendance and attention. We also need them equally to fill our big hungry bottomless stomachs. Money, a lot of money could only buy such scenic apartments with a view.
Our careers are still in the morning rising phase, yet to attain the noon peak and after many hard years will set down in the evening of our lives!
When we retire, our sunset phase of life will begin.
You will see me and my wife, holding our wrinkled hands together, sipping hot cups of tea at The Sunset Point of my humble scenic home.
