There's Something in Nothing

Its the 11th day of January, and as you might just think what's so special? I would say 'Nothing' !
But still I had to write this, because this 'Nothing' will takes you to 'Something'. Some of the finest details of life. Today this? 'Nothing' somehow prodded me to write 'Something'.

Well, it's  quite sunny today, and as we sat in the sun, there were few things I could see with distinct mental  discernment. Guess the luminescence helped me to see things more closely, the only difference was that; this time I just didn't used my eyes. 

I was looking at my parents face as they sat in the sun, sipping on the ginger tea, I had made for them, unaware of the fact that, I was watching them ludicrously, I sat there and kept gazing at them until I heard a soft smiling voice saying Kya ho gaya....kya soch rahi hai  (What happened? What are you thinking?) that's my mother always so alert and quick in asking questions :)
I just smiled back and said 'Nothing' there you go again, this nothing can jump in everywhere, even though It's not required. Why did I say 'Nothing' to her?  Well, the truth is, I was actually thinking. 
Actually I was having an intrapersonal communication, I was looking at the lines the so called 'wrinkles' and I said to myself, boy! they are Ugly! Yet there was something that moved me, 
each of the line was a story in itself.
Each line said 'SOMETHING'! 
The joy they shared when I was born, the unconditional love they have given me each second of my life and I must say I'm surely lucky to get it till date :).
These lines are the joys and the sorrows we shared. These lines are the moments, when I was helpless they were always there. These lines are the vexation, when they wanted the best in me.
These lines are the truth, that speaks the truth, that they'll always will be with me no matter what.
These lines are the hopes and the dreams they have in me. These lines are the journey of all the good and bad times.
But most importantly these lines are more than anything my heart can ever state, I wish I have these lines too no matter how ugly they look because, they are 'something', 'something' of everything in me and to what I am as a person today and will be in future.
Take you time to read the lines of your parents face, may be, who knows, just when you said that Ugly 'NOTHING' you may find that beautiful 'SOMETHING'.
