Born to be...

Rain has finally receded to make my plans work for the last weekend (23rd and 24th Jan 2010). Destination Sea World. It was fun watching dolphins and killer whales, sea lions and walrus and their acts and shows. A couple of fun rides and lots of seagulls. It was hard to have lunch with seagulls gawking for my fries..nevertheless it was a fine Saturday... One the way back I was thinking to my self what to do the next day (Sunday) which was a special day to my mom as I was born that day abt 27 years ago. I would say special to me mom because she was the one who borne me for months and brought me to this world. To me it is another day to be thankful. So I thought for a long time looked online to go out to any place to get a good pictures..may be zoo or park or the light house....
So the next day I got up around 8AM with my phone ringing in a hotel room in San Diego. One of my friends wished me and then around me I see my laptop, my camera, a TV and remote and rental car keys. I switched on the TV and watched a complete replay of Australian open 4th round match Roddick vs Gonzales, then continued to watch NFL Live football game Colts vs Jets and by the end, it was already 3 PM..
I took a nice shower and by 4.30 PM was on the road with no plans to go by moving west for the beach to get to the sunset. I watch the sun go down while driving along the coast (couldn't get a parking spot) and then stopped to get some nice snaps. Then I went to a temple to be thankful to a power beyond my understanding. Had a decent Peserattu in Madras Cafe for dinner and retiring myself back to the hotel room and slept early watching some random episode of CSI or criminal minds.

Everyone is born for a reason, to be someone someday or may be not. Just like this photo there is a sunset and then there is a sunrise. The matters of the day is the business of living, sometime a purpose for the next day. I guess the whole day I kept hearing that I may have been born to be me.. a calm yet an adventurous person. This day has given me a chance to relish myself, relive a life long forgotten. Many at times I let myself out of my way to be someone else. But I guess I am born to be myself.. what is it.. a loner?? I am confused now!!
