Its worth realising the fact that silence can be deafning,and i did realise it tonight.Indeed we are so very much accustomed to noise these days that silence is one abstract phenomenon for most of us.Today i had loads of work,and i had to stay back in the office at night,not that they were urgent but somewhere my pride and self belief was at stake.Not that i had to proove it to anyone,but i needed to proove to myself that i can and thus landed up spending the whole night in my office.
Initially i had loads of work but slowly when i completed most of these tasks i was left alone to wander through the dark passages of my office floor.In the day it is buzzing with enthusiastic crowds of people trying to work their ways though the amazingly complex lines of codes,but at night silence and peace prevailed here.
The whole of the building is silent.Even the A/C have been switched off ..so i guess its pin drop silence.As my office is far from the main city so there is not many high rise buildings here,so my office stands like a ghost in the vast darkness of neverland.As i look out now i can see a faint glow of crimson in the eastern sky,reminding me that another day will begin soon.Another day when all of us will follow the routine to office and back home.But today its different for me.I am where i usually not everday.
Its the first time i had spent a night working in my office.Usually i work late from home as i have the facility to do so.But really laying in the comfort of my bed never make my ideas flow.The comfort becomes a sort of curse in disguise for me.But today its different.I was just working from the same place where i have spent the last 19 hours and will probably spend another 13 hours.The best thing that happened was that my mobile fone had gone out of use today.So i am absolutely cut off from the world.The net result was that i had created a wonderful system that will be a handshake between the old legacy system to the new age SAP system.It feels good when i look back to the result that have been produced over the night.I feel good and happy.
Rightnow i was feeling just a bit worn out...may be thinking for long has made me lighheaded temporarily...But YANNI revived me.I had a whole collection of YANNI in my TP and just as i started listening to it in the lonesome darkness of the cubicles i was taken to a world of symphony..where expressions and speech and emotions are made by a combination of Do,Re,Mi,Fa,So,La,Ti. Amazing music,sheer brilliance.
This was one moment i would have liked to capture with me for a long time.A moment where the wonderful music is making a spectrum in the background ,where a faint light of the moring sun is peeking from the eastern horizon,where the silence and the darness is giving me company.But like all good things this will end soon..and the maddening chaos will begin.But i guess i am ready to take that on too now!!
