The world looks different at 5am and how. You can actually hear the silence in the city. It occurs to me that its been so long since I have actually heard Birds chirping in the city. Everytime I wake up early is either because I am travelling or I have to finish some work and both the reasons have stress unlined to them and I have never been able to stand in the middle of my room and enjoy the clarity of my thoughts.

we all spend so much money and effort to get out of the city at regular intervals to enjoy nature and space, i just realized there are so many getaways tucked at the corners of the city that so many of us are not aware. Yesterday i went to a ayurvedic wellness center at whitefeild, and it took me 2 hours to travel from my work place to reach the place for dinner. As soon as i reached the place I knew it was all worth it, all the pollution I inhaled, the grime and the noise my body experienced was totally marred by The absolute beauty of the landscaped garden and traditional kerala architecture. It was like time stood still and is not in a hurry to catch up with the scene outside.

It was such joy to hear the geese in the background instead of the lorry honks and the branches swishing in the wind while I was enjoying my carrot soup and the rest of the vegetarian wholesome meal with absolute pleasure.

the entire trip was an absolute pleasure but I personally cant imagine spending a week out there just doing yoga and massage. Knowing myself, By the end of seven days I will propbably dreaming about is KFC chicken, what's happening at grey's anatomy and spend all my time on the phone wth freinds telling them how bored I am.
