Ever ??

Ever checked your previous mails in leisure? 


Ever reread your chats, some years later?




Ever opened the memories you treasure in your closet? 


A movie ticket. A doodle in the copy. A chit that was passed in the class.


An incomplete sketch. A plan that was never executed.


The list of schedules that were never followed.


Some gifts special to the heart. The images collection.




-Recreate the charisma that the memory beholds. 
Vivid Video that follows.
They never change, even when the people associated do.






Some smiles. Some laughs. 


Some attitudes. Some habits.


Some rights which you feel have been snatched from you.


Some phrases. Some voices which you long to listen to.


Some back-slaps you miss getting.


Some rides that were fun, once.


Some own-ness that was outrightly evident. 


Some gossip sessions. Some talks. Some Silences....




Are now Big Silences ! 


Ignorance/ Attitude/ Indifference/ Detached/ Ego-hassles !!


Do the 'Times' change or 'People' ? 




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Why do we grow up? Why can't all relations be like the kid-parent one? Always there. Unaffected by even the biggest of a fight. 

Why do we learn to control ourselves, and not share what our heart truly feels? 
Why did we learn to manipulate our emotions? 
Why can't we be as spontaneous as a baby?
Why condition us? 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

try being what you are and saying whats on your heart. most of the times it will end up making you feel like a stupid arse. :)

the only thing that changes is the idea of who we are. the idea of who we want to be and the idea of being liked for who we are even if its just a bloody manipulation. :)

Happy to say I actually have done all those things mentioned earlier in the post at some point of time (heck! i keep doing them every now and then!!)..
Love to read old mails and chats.. and then laugh over the crazy conversations, look at old pictures and then wonder if that was really us!, open old notebooks and read the scribbles and and notes on the last pages!!
I love doing all of these things.. :)
