There are times when I wish I had carried a SLR to capture the sight of the panorama in all its clarity! One such occasion was when Sanjeeth and Thomas took me to the new garden that is being got ready adjacent to the Men's hostel in the CMC Bhagayam campus.
As I was taken back by the sight of a lawn, waterbody, fluttering birds, and the serene ambience in a place which was a dump yard until recently, what held my attention was the view that this Robin perched on the dry trunk of had of the horizon from a vantage position! On a misty morning, the sight of the distant was not clear and yet the bird seemed to be engaged in seeing into the horizon!
I returned from the garden, dwelling on the significance of the horizon in one's pilgrim journey!
The horizon is our destiny! Each of us has a journey of inner exploration to make of the life we lived and the life that is still left before us! It is only through the optic of the horizon we can make the inner journey of making sense of the life events which have occupied our lives! The horizon is a symbol of the fullness of life we are about to be blessed with!
What comforts us during difficult times is the sight of the horizon, because the horizon is a promise of possibilities and promise of hope!
