Yes, like many of us, I too need a leave from my daily routine. Fed up with waking up, getting ready, the office commute, the competition, and office gossip, which I too am a part of many times, and the fake ‘air-hostess’ smiles.
No, I am not planning any tour or visiting family back at home, nor do I need this to explore something in life.
I also don’t need this leave to finish any incomplete tasks or finish that long-pending book on my reading list.
I need this leave to just sit and do nothing, literally.
I want to just breathe and be there with myself… if possible, I don’t need any thoughts of mine to accompany me at that time.
I would like to be a still body with just the bodily functions going on.
Don’t want to look at the street from my balcony, don’t want to talk to anyone or open up, nothing…
A day to live, which, if possible, I should forget that day happened in my life, that sort of aloofness from everything I need this leave for.
Would that be possible? Maybe physically I can distance myself, but the issue is I can’t run from myself, and that’s where I will fall, again.
