Transient Thoughts

Monday, June 23, 2003

Went to a trip to a Waterfall this weekend.
The road got really interesting when we branched off the highway onto some general road.
It was an ideal time to be on the road. The Weather was fundoo, clouds, breeze et al., the kind of weather romantic movies get shot in. Looking out the window was a lot of fun. The colours were all mellow and soft like in a matted photograph. They didnt hurt the eye. The earth looked a lot of shades from dull yellow to the deep red of freshly tilled earth.
A thought occured to me that looking out the window in a speeding Sumo, oops sorry, Qualis (caught that one in the preview) is like looking very fast through a photo album. Everything outside looks like a still picture. Especially in the countryside where people are not too much in a hurry anyway. And the pictures are nice ones - lot of black sheep in a field, a group of people thatching their hut, kids playing on a construction-sand mound, and ofcourse the standard picture of lots of old guys sitting in front of a shop staring after you.
