It was thought that the gods blew on creative people, who would then inhale the god's breath and have an idea. This is the premise of "inspiration": inhaling divine breath and ideas.

Today is like yesterday… (page 1)

As I walked upto calendar to remind myself what day it was, I heard myself say ‘today is like yesterday’ and ‘yesterday was like the day before’. To overcome consternation, this has been a ritual since a long time, to be precise- one hundred and forty five years. I may look like a thirty five year old youth but the fervor for life has died. Days seem lugubrious now. My family and friends were washed away in the deluge of time. I now wait for time to consume me, to end aberrations…

    "For when you stand in the present moment, you are timeless" - then dont u think its futile to "wait for time to consume me, to end aberrations…"??

    To i7

    Firstly, in this label 'chronicle of an immortal man' I am going to a post a series about the adventures and mis-adventures of an immoratal man. I am confident I will fit into 'his' shoes perfectly.
    secondly, the series of posts start from point A: 'wait for time to consume me, to end aberrations and end at point B- 'for when you stand in the present moment, you are timeless.
    Thirdly, I always write my short stories with the man being the first person.
