MY NEEDS, AND MY WANTS

My needs keep me going, free; my wants keep me enchained, imprisoned. I woke up, this morning at 5.00. A light, hot cup of tea took care of my well-being till 9.30. I had a bowl of salad, made of boiled peas, tomatoes and onion. I am really done. For the lunch, I have packed for me two chapatis and a cauliflower dish. That would sustain my appetite till 5.00 in the evening. I will have a hot cup of coffee, and some toasts. I need not worry till 9.00 in the night. Some rice, daal and a vegetable dish ... the supper is over. A good sleep of six to seven hours, till it is another morning. What else is required to keep my zest for life on? I read a lot. I write a lot. I talk to my friends, well-wishers and family members a lot. I go out with my family to watch good movies, occasionally. I walk some distance, every day. I do some light exercises, including the breathing ones, every morning. I like to enter the kitchen to cook, sometimes ... to clean up the mess that piles up. I go to church...
