A 'time'less world...

I got up today morning and tried to find out the time - but wait! where's the time? There's no watch. I turned on my lappy to appease my tension for knowing time, and No! there's no display of time in it either!!!I tried to ask my friends, all of them have no idea of time. For a moment,my tension levels increased, at a speed I never experienced before. Suddenly everything seemed so confusing, I felt I am lost with no idea of when to brush my teeth, when to have bath, breakfast, college, assignments - oh no!!! what's happening to me?

Slowly, with despair, I got my self refreshed. And as the day cleared, a strange feeling started to creep within me. Was it shock? or tension? or fear? NO! it was something else - it was joy,happyness,freedom,hope - all mixed up together - giving me a feeling so amazing, I started loving it. But why this strange feeling at such a strange point of time? I tried to think over and voila! I think I got the answer - yes! It was due to 'time'. I dont have 'time' anymore...Yippie!!! So no more deadlines, no more haunting dates, times of submissions!!! Oh God! Is this true? Am I really relieved of 'time'? can't believe it.I dont need to rush my self through my daily chores, I do not need to worry about other's timelines. All of a sudden, the whole world seemed to be so beautiful - I feel I am liberated from the chains of 'time'.

Now that I got my answer, I started doing things at my own pace, with all the time I ever needed. I tried to read newspaper, then I went into my garden and watered the plans - oh! how peaceful it is to be with nature! I watched my favorite movies, went to the market and on the way back I saw kids playing on the street happily, college students competing among themselves
to impress a local beauty, the busy businessmen aah! where was I all these days? Was I lost in 'time'? Yes may be!!! I had my lunch, slept to the pleasure of my eye got up and went for a walk...beautiful evening. Lost in myself I had my dinner and was watching my favorite movie...

"Get up you lazy fellow!!!" yelled my friend,"Did you submit the assignment due today?"

"OOh!! I...I just dozed off finishing that!"

'what a beautiful dream'. I got up and started to fight myself against 'Time'
