Tiredness

We usually speak negatively about being tired. In English, the word «tired» is not only used for temporary fatigue, but refers to people who are tired of life in general (retired – a person who has gone pension, a tired face – the face of someone elderly).

For a long time I did not know tiredness. I became aware of it recently and discovered one of the joys of life. Actually, don`t sportsmen, who exhaust themselves in training and competition, strive for fatigue. Don`t running and dance bring us tiredness? And isn`t that blissful feeling, which flows throughout your body after a long voyage, just ordinary tiredness. You lie down all flushed on the cool drass under a sprawling tree in such a way, so as to see the sky and look at the clouds. Your muscles are not inert, but pulsating. You feel your blood coursing and the fullness of your muscles. The sensation resembles your state after consummating love making. After orgasm, you experience a profound weariness, a sweet bliss, a joyous fatigue. Accept this tiredness as a gift, it means you are alive.

Live as clouds,
That are far away, free, white-winged and light.
And disrupt the circles of eternity…
Go
And burn bridges behind you.
The clouds will fly as birds
from your hand
free, quick-winged and light.
And disrupt the circles of eternity…
