the journey has begun......
it is a rainmaker's quest for eternal knowledge,emancipation from the drudgeries of routines,a search for the inner meaning of life,love and things like that....
it takes him to the deepest corners of the globe, from the highest of the high to the lowest of the low, from the crevasses to the peaks, from the darkened alleys to the sunshine boulevards. the ensconce of a sojourn don't tempt him any more,the lure of rest does not stop him any more, the chill of the night doesn't sing lullabies any more.....
for there lays a path which needs to be traversed, a mountain which needs to be climbed, a hunger that needs to be appeased-the hunger to seek the eternal truth of life,to understand the guilty feelings of a sinned soul or the ecstasies of a humble saint.the road takes him to the paths on water where the mermaids dance the sacred dance of life,to the depths of hell where the devil waits in the darkness with a weapon to cut some stranger down...
the rainmaker has long retired, he doesn't sing any more,maybe has forgotten the sacred rain dance-it has been along time since he has danced last-people don't need him any more. the clouds don't obey him any more-maybe they have got some better still,the raindrops doesn't slash the earth at his command any more.he has got nothing- nothing really to boast of , all the powers he shared has long been given back to the soul of the earth-where it actually belonged on the first place.
so he is free, for the first time in his life to exercise his will, to laugh when he wishes to, dance at his own will and hum a tune of his own,for no one pays him anymore to stir up the clouds,to bring the rain down-to do something miraculous,magic of some sorts......
but, as we say- once a man of thoughts always a a man of thoughts-what had been his jinx has become the mother of new curiosities.that's why he never rests,moving from one town to another, one big city to another, one faith to another, in search of the one who gave him the powers he had(and the curse) and suddenly took it away from him.
he is on a quest and he will not rest,he will not stop and he will not quit-ever until he finds the answers that he seeks.
