Where should I lose myself...

I find this song to be soulful, deep, melodious with devotional correlations.
Of course, in context with the movie OK Kanmani, this was meant to be a romantic number describing how one lover reminisces about the other and yearns to unite forever with their counterpart.
I relate the lyrics (which are mesmerizing and pull at all the right heart strings) with the Universe, which for me has done exactly what the lover has done for their counterpart in this song.
I had and have asked for what I thought was the best for me and I ended up receiving much more than I could even imagine, in comparison to which my initial desire seemed feeble.
I had and have asked for a few moments of peace to help me regain my strength to deal with chaos and I ended up receiving liberation from the chaos.
I have so much to thank the Universe for and my long term yearning is to merge with It that has given me so much abundance.... When will this union happen? When will I finally rest in peace merged inside my Universe?
I know not...yet I yearn for it, with quiet expectation and complete trust that the Universe itself is guiding me in my journey to unite with it like a mother guides her crawling baby from a distance to finally merge inside her warm bosom...Protecting me at all times yet allowing me to learn my lessons on my own, waiting patiently for me to reach It.

Today marks the beginning of the 20th year of my earthly existence, although I feel like a 10 year old kid with 10 years of work experience with life. I generally wouldn't really like celebrating my birthday (which would usually consist of wishes from my loved ones, a new dress gifted by my parents and a surprise cake from my sister). I felt I had to achieve something worthy enough to call for a "celebration", so to speak. But this year though, is so radically different. Obviously, the year 2020 or infamously known as The Year That Must Not Be Named (Voldemort reference), has turned all birthdays from the month of March into "Quarantine Birthdays", because literally, the birthday humans were either in self isolation or in lock down. Yet for me, this is such a beautiful birthday that I take pride in celebrating. This day is definitely a cornerstone and a turning point in my life. It marks the culmination of my inner journey of soul searching, life purpose findin...
This is the first part in a 6 part fictional story series. Everything in this story is purely imaginary with inspirations from real life. Any resemblances to any person or occasion in real life is completely coincidental. 1. Conversations Tired out by the activities of the day, Miraa changed into her loose yellow t shirt and black pants, turned on the AC, curled up in her bed, comforter carelessly strewn over her feet, nose hooked inside a book, eyes and mind engrossed in its contents. She was a 20 year old college goer, with small, brown eyes, a rather flat nose, a set of imperfect, yellowish, crooked teeth and with wavy, shoulder-length, black hair now tied in a characteristic bun, with a milky complexion. As she continued reading, a chill went down her spine. The chill had nothing to do with the atmosphere provided by the air conditioner nor with the gripping story of the book. A feeling of being watched, almost that of being quietly examined, suddenly made her feel vulne...
