रात्री ... Nocturnal Mysticisms

Different times of the day make us behave and experience a different feel to life. This struck me when I was having a casual conversation with a friend at the date crossover time, aka midnight. I have noticed that as the night progresses, our usual pragmatic and surface talks turn into philosophical discussions.

I have always had a strange fascination for the night, and the wee hours of the morning. It's at this time I usually identify with myself more and see the finer points to my purpose of existence. I think that these are the best times for two people to gel. Even traditionally, sunset and moonlight are supposed to be cliches for romanticisms, bolstering this hypothesis.I have made some of the best connections in my life owing to nocturnal interactions.

As the sun dispels the 'darkness' of the night, we become more practical and worry about the problems of a real life, like daily survival, food, transport, and the like. I am awed at the mysticisms of the night which makes a person suddenly change from the non-dreamer, over practical person to the philosophical, utopia thirsty, thoughtful person...

Also, most of my the 1000+ MATLAB files I might have written towards my Ratatouille happen to be around or closely at the date crossover period ! Incidentally this is blogged at 00:10 too !!
