“That most awaited Pause”

Years together I have waited, for this pause!

Pause to reflect, rejuvenate and recreate a whole new me!

Pause to hide & hibernate!

Pause of silence!

Pause to get in me and find my real self!

Pause to double check the traversed path! And see whether that journey could take me to my desired place?

Pause to escape the game of offense and defense to reach what makes pure sense!

Pause to stop worrying about what people will say!

Pause to define and decide what I really want?

Pause to feel the immense gratitude of what life has given me rather what it hasn’t!

This pause is good! Yes, it is.. Amidst a horrific casualty!

Yet, this pause has given me what I have always wanted!!
