Look For Me
The Willow and the Pine
Vibeikho
was unusually pensive today, he and Sailovi had been talking non-stop for 2
days now, they were trying to bring back their love story of years back, they
would stand under a tree in front of the garage every evening and talk while
people passed on the road, and I just sat there listening to their tunes in the garage, as words filtered in through the air,
just a segment here and another there.
One particular, that really interested me was the part where she spoke
to him about how she missed those days when he wouldn’t come and meet her,
said, “He was too busy working,” and trying to get a future in place. He had gone away from Aizawl for a
few days and that’s when she realised how much she loved him.
“I feel like doing those days again,” Vibeikho said
relentlessly, “those were carefree days far from the tension and responsibility of now.”“This one is coming back,” she said as she saw Rose Nang walk past their small property. She was pretty and a darling, though given the right inclination she could turn a man into a putty with her anger. Slowly and surely, and I peeped out of the garage window, Rose had walked up to them, “What you two up to these days, the whole towns talking about you.”
Vibeikho had kept quiet and Rose started talking to Sailovi, as he stared at the garage, Vibeikho had waved back at me and Rose asked, “Who is that man?” Friend of ours from far off land, they had replied playfully and Rose was interested, maybe just a little curious. The town had seen me in their house and knew I kept to myself except for talking to my hosts and Sailovi had mentioned, “You are so tense, maybe you need to fall in love,” and I looked at her quizzically, “Allison was a married woman remember, Rosie is free,” she had replied.
“These Days I Get to See the Dawn of the
Day Every day.”
Sharing a True Story
Work was beckoning slowly and surely every day, I
sat this morning having breakfast alone in this dwelling and thinking to myself
maybe I need to go work a little slow, take my time with this product that I
was dreaming up. So I went back to the
board and stared at the technical drawing I had created for the product, it
looked nice but then what was unique about it ?
I stared a wee bit more and then crushed the papers and threw them into
the dustbin.
I sat down and started to work again, it was time to
stop reminiscing and start looking at the future,
quickly with a pencil in hand, I drew an analogy of a Solar System within a Solar
Energy System on the large drawing sheets.
I wrote down the concepts on the right side, penned down the
specifications and started to draw. Some
of these drawings I will represent further on this blog, needless to say the
analogy was to re-create from nature, the Sun as the epicentre of our existence
with the nine planets revolving around it.
Marketing such a system would face an obstacle in the pricing model, but it
would find people who related to this concept.
It was useful idea to have a project with like minded people since the
whole concept didn’t need to be understood from start. Below I reproduce a drawing for a typical Solar
Power System, this I will modify to get a true understanding of how a Solar
Power System would work within the sphere of the above postulates:
But more on this in my later posts, till when we
will just stick with Sailovi and help her pick more funds for her pig farm.
