You wrote it beautifully. I have been to similar situation, although the beauty transformed into different shapes. It is fascinating that i find beauty in so many different places. What looked ugly in past, seems beautiful now. Sometimes, i enjoy sitting on the bench at the bus stop aimlessly, and missing my bus. Just watching people around you at the Punjab University old campus bus stop is also very enjoyable, when i go back there. Gazing at people who are full of hopes, dreams and romance.

Regards.

Short but effective! It was a pleasure reading this short story. Beauty is inexplicable and is found in various forms, and perhaps that is the very ``beauty`` of it. :) However, some things are unique and ant attempt to touch or tarnish them is an insult to the former.

It was a nice read. It reminded me of a music video i saw a long time back of the song, ``Nothing at All`` by Ronan Kieting which focuses on a building of a friendship/ relationship amongst two strangers sitting on a bench. :)

Keep writing!

FM,

The supreme form of love is to surrender oneself wholly, without reservation, without pride to the will of that which is loved.

More often than not when love is discussed or felt it is hard to create a division between man`s love for a woman and a human`s love for God. For passion in its various forms is exuberantly ecstatically felt. And this is also that instance when one faces extreme difficulty knowing where reverence ends and divinity begins.

Peace!

It was very well written,short but thought provoking.I enjoyed the way you have
inter-woven words with picturesque beauty of the passage.Way of unleashing beloveds beauty is commentable.No wonder it can only be felt by those who have experienced this emotion called love.your description of deity`s(beloved`s)authority and of desciples(lover) sense of nothingness infront of beloveds presence is inexplicable.
Looking forward to see more stuff from you
