Tomato, Tomaato

does it really matter?

Queer.

Feels nice to be back on my personal space. Wonder why  I quit blogging anyway. Till date, it has been the only effective remedy, a sort of happy place to my nonsensical whirlwind of a life.

So much has happened. So much to say, so much to do. Not blogging had made me feel claustrophobic. It's like I can finally breathe. What would I ever do without my words?

Its 3:22 am. I had a really bad dream. Actually, I really can't say if it's bad. It was.. strange.
So, I'm walking down the street with a cup of Starbucks coffee in one hand and a German Shepherd tagging along on my other. And it's weird because dogs bigger than the size of a tabby cat, freak me out.
Passers-by are staring at me for reasons I can't understand, just when the most adorable Chinese kid tugs on his mum's skirt and points over at me and says "Ma, why does she have blood on her shirt?" 

The mother walks up to me and gives me a hug. "It'll all be alright", she says and walks off. And I'm standing there, all alone in the middle of the street. The dog has wandered off but I still have my coffee and it tastes damn good.

I really don't know what to make of this. What does the blood even mean. And a huge dog? It's like it was guarding me from something. Like it just saved my life, did its job and trotted off. Very strange.

Anyway. Now that I've come back to this space , I finally feel better. I'm never going away.

"Joy can take care of itself, but to get the full value of grief you must have somebody to divide it with."
In this case, it's something, and it's you. Thank you, blog.

dreams are crazy. dreams are awesome. dreams tell us what could be, what should be, what couldn't be, and what shouldn't be.

are you in grief in real life, or just your dream?

Sigh. I get such dreams too :|. Google said that you get such strange dreams when you're physically tired/ *ahem science* less blood flow to brain, less control over it, thoughts hit random extremities. You never "quit" blogging, thought I would looooove to see jouu post a little more often :)

And did you flip the proverb? It's a Mark twain, Grief will take care of itself, but to get the full value of joy, you must have somebody to divide it with :)

Thanks to you, I'm craving a Starbucks' grande Cinnamon Dolce Latte now.
Keep writingggg.
SON ENNN GREEEES TOTU

Awesome to know you got a domain, that too a .me, just like I do :) Keep writing Noby! And podcasting (if you still do). We love reading and listening to your thoughts :)

Oh and don't worry much about dreams, they're usually random and nonsensically bizarre! Just keep a dream journal to note them all down so you can remember to share them with us later ;)
