Delicate: Delicate could be the tracings of frost on a window, a child’s tiny fingers and toes, the intricate pattern of a tree’s canopy, or something yet-to-be-discovered. So much of this challenge depends on your interpretation of “delicate,” and we look forward to seeing the range of images you capture.– Michelle
Here’s my interpretation of delicate: easily broken or damaged, fragile, susceptible to illness or adverse conditions.
You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book, or you take a trip, or you talk with someone, and you discover that you are not living, you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom: absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony, boredom, death. Millions live like this(or die like this) without knowing it.

Very well expressed & loved the photo too!
Thank you so much!
That was a good few lines about hibernating.. especially that bit about restlessness. And the picture is lovely… reminds me of a beautiful romantic song that was picturised in this kind of location. Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving your kind comments. TC!!
Oh great! Which song if I may know?
Yes I found you through the BlogAdda contest. Liked your style of writing!
It’s a telugu song.. from the movie “Varsham” (which means rain) – the song is of the same title.
Rain.. That sounds romantic!

Hibernation is usually a necessary and practical thing.
Really ??
