A frantic outing while feeling hopeless in life

When life is completely a mess and you feel hopeless, you can take the medicine of random travelling. Nature has amazing beauties to engrossed with. You can get immersed in nature's surprising acts and wonder. You might be unaware of how and when all your irritations, worries, tension and hatred has disappeared. Instead of that, you are feeling relaxed and charmed with new enthusiasm. 

I have gone through a similar experience recently. Being a working woman on a private farm, I have to deal with a hectic schedule in the office. Apart from that, I have to deal with many other aspects of life single-handed. When I was going through a lot, I was bullied by my company that is going through the recession. I felt that I am completely good for nothing at the moment. Suddenly, I felt to roam the streets hopelessly. 

According to this eagerness to step-out for an unknown and uncertain destination in a completely unbearable humid temperature, I left my hostel room and took a bus that is going towards Howrah station. On my way, I get down from the bus at B.B.D Bag rail station to get a train towards Princep Ghaat. Unfortunately, I reached the wrong time and there was no train at the moment. So, I had to take a launch towards Howrah. While waiting for the launch, I was able to manage for clicking some diving pictures of the local boys while they took a bath in the Ganges. It was amazing to see them dive from such heights without any formal training. 

  

From Howrah station, I took another bus, that dropped me in front of Princep Ghaat. It was round about 2 PM. The hot summer and the scorching sun did not make me restrain from reaching there. The only thought that I had at that time was that I am a hopeless fellow with no job and nothing to do. 
I sat on the bank of the river Ganges without any thought, no excitement, no feelings as like I am empty. Sometimes, sudden thoughts were coming for some moment and then vanishing the next time. People were coming, taking photographs, selfies, group selfies, etc. and conversing with each other. 

Each group was waiting for some time and then leaving the place after few minutes. Couples were spending romantic moments, taking photographs of each other and leaving. In order to explore more of nature's beauty,  some of them, booked the boats.      



  
Soon after, the sun reappeared with its scorching rays after hiding behind the cloud. The rays of the sun were adorning water waves of the Ganges and the scenic beauty is enough to take away all your frustrations for the moment. 


With the passing of the day, the sun was going to set with all its charm and the last rays of hope of a new beginning, the next day. Types of people and their activities were changing, while I was standing and watching everyone without any specific intention. Whenever I was wondering with the charm of the sunlight engrossed river water, I was trying to capture them with my mobile lens to enjoy them in the future days. 









 


Slowly, the sun vanished beyond the bridge and I left for the day. The whole outing is marvelous and while returning home, I was not the same person who started a frantic outing.
