The '19th Floor' Dream

I have been wanting to write about '19th Floor' from a long time, finally sitting down alone in my balcony with the ear phones, with my fav music and a perfect setting to write my heart out about my little nest . Unlike many others, I did not fear heights from my childhood days, I dreamt of living in a high rise apartment with a balcony overlooking the sea..I have not yet reached that stage to afford a luxury apartment facing the sea, but I am very happy about where I have reached today.. From a small house in madikeri that hardly had any fancy stuff and with hardly any money to decorate it..life has come a long way..I think I am slowly turning upto be an atheist but definitely grateful to the supernatural power that exists between us. Well, till now haven't mentioned about my husband without whom I don't think I could ever live my dream..I can decorate it, put my life into it, but he needs to finance it all :) Just to get this apartment ready I have let go of many other things, don't know if I have done full justice to this place, but have tried to make it look simple yet classy, Though I love bright colours, for some strong reason, tried to keep it very neutral, may be its the sign of growing old and its changing moods, probably light colour would after all suit all the mood swings ;) I can go on writing about the house, the struggle to put things together, to follow up with people, or the enthusiasm to browse through many interior websites, or roam every corner of Bangalore just to find all the items exactly as visualised, chat for hours with Archana to finalise on the designs and the fond memories that are created in this house, but more importantly, after so many months of moving in here, finally feels as though I am settling down here with an appreciation for life, for our efforts and a strong urge to stay happy and at peace with myself. Thank you life, amidst all the tricks that you throw on us, glad that you can still spare us some happiness and at least make some dreams come true..:)
