1 Stream Of Consciousness

Every time I wake up in the morning, I always think about the reasons why we need to wake up again and again. And while walking my way to school, I think of reasons why I tread the same path every day going always to the same direction. While walking, the sun light hits my skin reminding me the same question. Why does the sun always rise? Why does it keep on exchanging the role with the moon on lightning a side of the Earth? Why does everything seem to happen again and again?

While nearing the gate of our school, I noticed the street sweeper. He is always there every morning doing the same thing, clearing the fallen dry leaves from the large tree which always have dry leaves to give away. Recurrence, isn't it? It seems like it has no ending. And while becoming nearer to the gate, I can't really neglect the security guard. How many days had he repeatedly stood on the same post? Would he ever get tired of it? And as I enter the school, the sight of those having the flag ceremony welcome me. Isn't it that they always raise the flag? Really, it seems like everything is repeated over and over again. And accept it or not, we never get used to it.

And I continue my way to our classroom. I do these five days a week; every day entering the school, every day listening to the teachers, every day talking. What a non ending every day! After each day, I go home, grab a meal, have a review, sleep and wake up again tomorrow. And these goes another replication of yesterday's work. It should be boring and tiresome but I know it's not!

The street sweeper, the security guard and even the tricycle driver; all of them wake up doing the same thing every day like all of us do. And we didn't get tired of it.

Maybe there's a mystery behind it; on why we continue even if we know that the sun rotates around the same Axis and revolves around the same orbit Maybe even if it's seems like we cannot identify. Or maybe this is what they call " hope". Or either we deny it or not, certainly this is strong belief to a higher being than us...to GOD.

Perhaps after all these recurrences and continuations of the flow of the stream of life, we all hope for that one day, in a time that we cannot tell, in a place that we cannot yet perceive, there is happy ending reserved for all of us.
