“It is the quiet of the night that I adore the most.

It makes me wander in paths and times that seem so distinct, so distant in the light of a bright chirpy day.

Oh, I love to talk and I love to hear, form connections, live the passion of Life throbbing with the fervour of colours and stories. But the dark, the stillness of the night makes me see the rivulets of light that walk in my soul. As if they talk to me, like an unsung melody, a poem scattered in bits and pieces, holding my breath to a dawn. They walk through my soul and ask me to keep my senses open as I inhale the peace of night where only the murmur of the stars dance in a serenade of a lover's dream, as if to paint a shadow of colours woven in the misty echo of an infinite lullaby. I love the night air so cold yet so crisp clutching us in a passionate embrace where we give way to all that a heart desires, some make poems some heal wounds and some sleep in the arms of love, while every soul wears its real and most vulnerable yet most whole self. And there as I watch my soul bathed in the halo of stillness, I see how the silence of the night gives in to the chirping of the birds, while the stars walk into their cocoon to let the Sun smile through the breathing dawn.
Only a moment, when the night holds us in a mirror for a second or for a fraction of a second and when the morn seeps in to let Life jump in with a thousand voices. Only a moment. And yet that moment is so pure so beautiful to let us soak and even hold on to that stillness of night as much as we can through our heart, and every bit of our soul.

I sit in awe, not only to behold the glory of the Morn but also to absorb the depth of the Night, for it is the quiet of the night that I adore the most.”

“I found it strange how people could sit in an airplane flying miles high at hundreds of speeds and not think about it. We got used to magnificent things. I wanted to think it’s cool every time I fly. I wouldn’t want to act overdramatic but just sit there and look out the window for a moment and process what I’m doing. Really process it. Maybe before turning on a movie or going back to normal life, I would begin the flight with a moment like that.”
J. Aleong, A Most Important Year

“The crisis is there. The crisis is not in the world, it is not the nuclear war, it is not the terrible divisions and the brutality that is
going on. The crisis is in our consciousness, the crisis is what we are, what we have become.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti, The Real Crisis

“There was something about nighttime that made time feel slow and our thoughts feel large. Daytime was a beauty to the eyes, and nighttime was a beauty to the soul. I decided that they were equally beautiful in different ways and couldn’t be compared.”
J. Aleong, A Most Important Year

“I realized that you could appreciate something without wanting it back. Everything had its own purpose and time.”

“In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.’

Chaos has definitely been a part of Rosie’s life, Neemai brooded, and more than her share. But by that logic, he would also have to believe in an order of things.

Philosophically, he knew things happen for a reason, including misfortune, but that was not the problem. He felt that things take a strange twist when we try to integrate real life into philosophy. There is a persisting truth and a gnawing cynicism lingering on the opposite ends of a seesaw, each trying to put more weight and express its existence.

The seesaw is rarely in balance – it comes parallel to the ground briefly – and that is the rare moment we are truly happy and at peace. These moments of balance were like a rare phenomenon and he could almost remember those few days in his life. Recently, those days were ones spent wondering about Rosie.”
Ajanta Sengupta, Unlettered
