Time zone

By Mansi Chaturvedi on 5th Jul 2024

So how has the day been so far? Or is it that the day has just begun for you? There would be many who would be fast asleep in one corner of the world , while some may be up or in the middle of the day , with a hectic schedule or for some, a holiday. So how do you manage connecting with someone who is in a different time zone altogether. How often do you speak? How often do you or the other stay awake and wait to hear each other? Difficult is it or easy? Right now , when I share my words with you, I am sure you all might be at different times of the day or night
But anyways, when you do sit down and take out time to do something different than that in your schedule, that is what is important. You could grab a book , or listen to your favourite song, nibble on your favourite snack or just relax in bed. No matter which time zone you are in , we all do unwind and just pause everything that you were busy with. A little scroll on the cell phone. A joke being shared in between work. A small chat or call with a dear one to check on them . A simple thought or an idea that you just came up with. The mind does wander from place to place . It has its own zones that remind you from time to time to connect. It reserves space for those long conversations or relaxations that you need. It gives you hints that you need to move to a different zone from time to time.
Remember the last time you suddenly decided to go and meet a friend or a dear one. Just all of a sudden with no plan before. You surprised them and both of you had a happy meet up. Your mind just wandered to a happy zone and got you connected.
Remember the last time when you just yelled at someone for the most ordinary of things. Leaving them totally clueless of what went wrong. You mind just travelled to a different zone of dissatisfaction.
Remember when you just decided for a short trip or staycation with your dear ones. It just helped you unwind and enjoy and take a break from the hectic schedule. Your mind just wandered to a relaxing zone and carried you with it.
From time to time we change our mind. You never try to figure out. But it is true , our mind is a traveller which needs to fulfill its requirements. Be it of love, of friendship, of hatred, of activity, of boredom or simply unwind. You do have knowledge about different time zones in the world but you hardly understand which zone or state your mind is in. Suddenly you switch to something different as your mind needs its time to break it's monotony. It even travels as dreams when you do sleep. So do keep in touch with it because it does tell you what you need to change from time to time.
