" You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. "
- Mae West
Salman Rushdie writes in one of his novels, that time does stop, magnify when the you're in a dreadful situation and goes fast forward when you're having fun. Indeed you see, time stretches and contracts. When you do something you like, it goes like a slow motion scene in a movie. When you're doing something that you don't like or have taken for granted then the time goes by unnoticed. Imagine if we'd have more slow motion moments, wouldn't it be just like a movie? Complete in itself, beautiful to watch? More beautiful to be a part of?
May be the slow motion happenes when you're with your loved ones, or when you finally realise that you have a blessed life, or when you do something that makes you grateful of being alive. Paint, sing, write if you must. Let you life be more about living. Let the means be means and not objective of life. And when life will be more magnified, you'll see how wonderful it is and then one life, even a small one would be enough.
