Visions !!!!!

            People spare a huge amount of in buying cameras, camcorders, SLRs etc. Why do we do so? Is it to capture the  moments we are spending, to reminisce them. Perhaps it may be so. But which one would you support: visions or SLRs.
            Visions are the scenes that virtually play in front of your closed eyes. Just close your eyes, imagine yourself  in a field, full of greenery around. A range of mountains in front of you, though far away. Above these mountains you can see the transparent clouds kissing the peaks of the mountains, passing by with its snail's pace. A cool breeze around you, softly touching your arms, your body, blowing your hair. The leaves and the branches of the trees around you, dancing with the wind as if she's dancing with the love of her life on the romantic sound( the hustle of the wind). You open your footwear, feel the soft grass below your feet, which is still wet because of the early morning dew. You raise hands horizontally, feel the breeze fragrance, go a few steps forward, start humming a soft romantic song... How would you feel? You actually feel elated.  
              There lies the difference between your camcorders and the visions. You prefer watching your past videos and snaps in a 52 " T.V set, but will you be having the same feeling as the vision I stated above? Not at all. When you see these scenes in those gadgets, you simply watch it, but when you are actually visualize it, you start feeling the situation, enjoying it, reminiscing it. 
                Even if you are thinking about future, you see snaps of some tourist places, you wish to go there. But what if you start imagining the places. For example, you think of Bora Bora. You must have heard many things about the place. The lagoons, the long stretched ocean, the romantic suites located just above the water body, cliff on one side etc. You start imagining yourself landing on the Tahiti Islands, a view from the 30000 feet height. You start feeling the clouds below you slowly disappearing, and the faint borders of the Pacific being gradually visible, from faint to deep, with the bluish green color of the vast ocean getting prominent. You start feeling excited. Slowly the wheels of your flight touch the runway and you start departing the airport, eagerly waiting to get a view of the coastline, which you have been imagining so far. Slowly you progress towards the coastline. You can now see the silent water body, feel the fragrance of it.You are taken to the reception of the resort, hosts over there take you to the cottage. You hold the hands of your partner, feel every steps of your walk over the wooden bridge, the light blue water below you above the silky white sand. You enter the cottage, located over the water body, with an exquisite decoration. The balcony outside your cottage has a pair of chair with a tea table, and most importantly a flight of stairs down to the water. You stand in the balcony with the water beneath you, a clear sky above you and a cliff in front of you, holding your partner's hands. WOW!!! An awestruck feeling!!! I have never been to Bora Bora, but this vision of mine not only wishes but urges me to give a visit to the place.
                  Thus whichever recordings you see of a place, or a situation, or a occasion, you can enjoy it to the fullest only when you have the "VISION"....
