If you have been following my blog you would know that I loved my wife the most. She was so lovable ππ But she wasnβt my first love.
My first love was sky π π
I remember one night, just after our marriage, we were strolling hand in hand, after dinner. It was a clear, beautiful night and I started to point out various constellations to Anita. And ever so sweetly she said, β You are supposed to be seeing the stars and the moon in my eyes and not in the sky.β ππ₯°
If there was a time machine and I could go back in time, I would love to go back to the time when we were newly married. Or the first few years of our married life. God willing some day or in some other life time, or in some other dimension ππ

My love affair with the sky started when I was still a student. There were no computers and not even calculators at that time. And I used to calculate the distances between stars and the constellations and galaxies with my own hand in my note books! I used to get so awed with the humongous bigness of the universe. It was incomprehensible, the infinitude of creation, of God.
This was also the beginning of my love affair with spirituality! I used to wonder about the infinitude of creation and my nothingness. I am still awed by the infinitude of creation, itβs beauty and freshness. And I wonder why is bulk of humanity running after money and power? Are they blind or what!!
It is not only that I am insignificant or nothing. If the entire solar system of ours got sucked into a black hole, it wouldnβt even cause a ripple in the scheme of things. Our solar system is so small and insignificant. And I think, so is our Milky Way galaxy π
I love the play of clouds in the sky. I love the games clouds play with the moon and the sun. I love dawn. The beauty and the stillness. I love starry nights. I can spend hours and days looking at the sky.
