The more greys on my head, the more grey I see in my attributes. All that idea of black & white is fading...
So am I a home bird or a vagbond?! I thought I wanted to break free & roam to my heart's content... but whenever I broke free I wondered if I wanted to stay at home & just be... and when lockdown finally enabled just that, turns out I'm longing to go out.
Today - after ages of immobility, I finally had to step out of home. I almost couldnt remember what it felt like to go 'OUT'! Moment of truth - was whether i would fit into my jeans!! That was the first hurrah. Atleast it fit.. irrespective of how! There was this meme that read 'my shoes must think I've died'. Well I guess so does my lipstick. It felt like heaven to see some color on my face. Got into the car & the husband rained down on my short-lived lipstick party - hands me the newly mandated travel companion - the mask! I guess I'll just have to acquire a new life-skill aka art of using eye-liner/maskara!
As we headed out, I couldnt believe what a relief it was to hit the road. I was ecstatic & the husband said 'so little to make you happy! Why did you have to wait for me to do this??'
Life's little pleasures can never be over-exaggerated - ever! If anything, thats what lockdown teaches us.
