Life is so beautiful...

This picture was taken in Kallanai near Trichy. This is a 329 metre dam built in the 2nd century and this dam is still in operational condition. Its an engineering marvel and this does make me proud to see how they have thought and conceived this dam.
But more than all those, we spent more than 2 hours in this dam and I would say that it has been the best moments of my life in the recent past. The smile on the faces would tell you how much we all enjoyed being there close to nature. As I was watching my wife and daughter playing happily in the water, I was just wondering how beautiful life is and setting aside all these, we are actually racing behind an artificial, lifeless world.
As usual, I decided that once I retire I would probably settle down in a place like this. then I smiled on my thought and said to myself, to live the life my heart wants to, I should wait till I become old... Why cannot I shun away the life, which I don't like and do I what I want to do, now itself.????
