Hello World

Where do I start? What do I say?. I feel like a coy lover , having a lot to say,but not finding the right words. Let me start like a programmer(novice), with "Hello World". ***

It was dark inside. A thunderstorm was raging inside me ... no no beside me... no ALL AROUND me. I was going down a drain, in fits and starts, forward, up, down, I had no sense of direction . I had a rope , I could feel it on me, but oddly, not around me. What was it? - A lifeline, more of an amusement I think , for I was not going very far , considering the long trip TO this place.The channel started rocking violently. But strangely, I felt no need to panic. Infact, I was asleep, undisturbed , almost in a trance. If I had stayed awake - Would I have let it happen to me?

It had been a long journey to the dark chamber. I had started from Terebellum and headed south towards Alpha Centauri. I was by no means a meteor or asteroid and in fact was way too small to be spotted/stopped. Somewhow, I knew the thousand-lighyear-leg was not the most difficult part of the journey . So I glided through, unperturbed. I knew there would be millions of those large rocks, demonstrating their devotion to some unknown GOD at the centre of everything (or were these demons cursed to move in circles till their horned heads burst) , crossing my path. Some unknown force had granted me this invisible cloak which would take me past these heavenly security guards , towards my destination.

There it was , my destination, like a sailor rejoicing the sight of shore, I was ecstatic , there were a thousand chambers open and in waiting. All of them looked similar ( only later would I realise the differences they embodied ). I was however spared the task of choosing , I was pushed into one and SEALED. It was as though someone had decided what chamber I would go into.

When I first came in, I felt so small and this place was more than sufficient. I had been unable to see in the darkness and heard nothing, it was pure bliss , paradoxically , like death. But as time went by things started to change. I started to increase in size, and the chamber grew too. I would hear noises, an elobarate symphony of intestinal music.(oops! did I let it slip?) . Yes , I was in the sacred womb.

In some months I was starting to feel claustrophic and wanted to make a move. I started twisting and turning and kicking. Someone must have felt my presence , for soon I was being pushed out rather unceremoniously. Then I saw light, a lot of it. Too much that I started making noises ( sound waves in the audible range) and was impressed by my ability . Perhaps my way of saying HELLO WORLD.
