Learn from others and self!

Last time I visited her blog I was enchanted by the colour scheme and the logo behind her title........ The next moment I knew I had missed a few things. I did make my blog spot but I didnt make it a lil more enticing. I thought for a moment about using the various templates and getting my blog to look 'uber cool'. But then a different bell rang in my mind. I thought why not make my own background, why not try something that looks good and soothing to the eye while its a part of my identity, a little of my mind's creativity. Then I opened my paintbox and lo behold started my old ritual of painting what nots and coming out with a new fresh idea for my painting, my canvas started changing colours, getting new shapes, placing them here and there. Then as things fell in place I found out I was standing at the right corner with my suitcase behind me, so I put a lil hair on the figure at the right corner of the Title. Then I saw that I was moving out of the small place Port Blair, which was being showcased by the small and lovely box in green and lt blue. Eureka, i had to connect the left to the right to show that i was walking out of the box without a plan of my trip and still made quite a few trips to distant places of India. Most of the time the places were randomly selected hence the title No Itinerary.
If you see closely the incidents I mentioned that too were never planned or thought of, but jus happened out of the blue. People who were never a part in my life came to influence me. Places that were far too away were so close at one time. The places I viewed only in photographs were sighted by my eyes. Things that are planned, that have become routines seem so very farcical, but that is what my actual life is made up of........that is what we have to do all our life just so that when we go out of the way we do see things in a different light.
