Its a different day!

...........................................................................................................
Veronica Decides to die, the novel by Paulo Coelho I read long time back.Lately I haven't had anything to write here hence felt like sharing this creation.

These are the opening lines of the book review I wrote for a friend of mine.

Getting up in a pleasant morning, on the streets of Ljubljana, people going to and from work, whole day working as a librarian, frequenting the same bars and nightclubs, going to movie, roaming around, walking besides sea shore, talking to friends about the unfair world, injustice, corruption, relishing guys attention, having boyfriends, making love with them, at home, in car, in woods to have the pleasure that lasts with orgasm!!! Reverting back the feeling of acute emptiness, no further exchange of words other than ...Its late! Getting back to the rented flat, listen to FM, watch TV, read a novel, set the alarm clock simply to wake up at exactly the same time and repeating the same tasks ignoring the fact that the date has changed… It’s a different day!!!

After writing this I rediscovered many philosophies :) I had missed while reading the book and further very much enjoyed writing the whole review:)

In short I would like to say as you flip over the pages, the book delivers a great sense of tranquility, you see your own questions being raised, and you confront the strongest of all your feelings that is probably buried deep down in your heart that you always fear to express only to avoid its acrimony till the time it’s too late to make any amendment. Ultimately you feel that it’s not life that stops offering us changes; it’s what we decide for our self!

Not a must read but a good to read novel... :)
