A day that seems not very fruitful !!Maybe it's because I didn't go for my morning jog,succumbing rarely to sloth,maybe its because there wasn't enough of worthwhile things I did today,or maybe it's because I feel something's missing.Anyways,the gravity of the situation is not that grave,just that there seems to be an incompleteness to the day which I am trying to fill somewhat as Pink Floyd is helping me in it by crooning Poles Apart in all it's glory for me!!
Have you felt this incompleteness anytime?That you are not sad but you feel the day was incomplete?Tonight,I am in a rarely thoughtful mood!The smallest and slightest of incidents are bringing up rather deep thoughts in my mind,not necessarily sensible ones though!Picture this,I am scrawling down Facebook,checking out what everyone has to pour out of their hearts today and I see a friend of mine being tagged by some other friend of hers over some friendship poem thing.Ignoring whatever the poem or what it seemed to be like,I started thinking about the person,my long lost friend.Where was she?Pretty much in the same city that I am currently in,probably a 10 minutes ride apart from my home but she hadn't contacted me since what seems like ages now.The world has truly become a busy place,thanks to technology!!People don't seem to have time to 'connect' and 'bond',unless its a Physics or Chemistry practical ofcourse!!Someone had also attributed technology of making the world a 'global village' where people have come closer.Hmmm,I bet he'd have a tough time deciphering out this case,when people of the same village are two worlds apart!!
Another instance which I encountered earlier in the day was this couple sitting in a cafe where I was present with a group of friends,discussing some serious SRP work.Oblivious of everything,they seemed to be in a world of their own.(I guess I shouldn't miss my college too much!)They were all eyes in eyes,pearly smiles,hand in hand and ears tuned to receive only one frequency,that of their beloved!Ah,the 'Ishq Wala Love',I thought!May God bless them both and maintain their love and caring till atleast they walk out of the cafe.In today's world,such love is a discovery!These two can NEVER go wrong,never!!In a generation that says,"Of Course I Love You......Till I find Someone Better"they will be a revelation!!Oh yeah?Says who?Says Me!!Yeah,someone who hasn't even had a sneak peek into what a relationship is says this!!Shut up and do your work!!It is none of your business!!True actually,but you see such small things prompted a rather long and silly train of thoughts!
Leaving aside such stupid thoughts,lets move onto better ones.One thing that I can claim I did worthwhile today was a visit to a home for the disabled,weak and the elderly.The visuals from there brought about so many emotions within me!One was of sheer respect,for the people there who are still managing a smile with a song on their lips when someone comes to see them and give them a little company.Second was of worthlessness,of being fully able physically but not quite performing at peak.The absence of that contention that so brightly reflected from their faces at that moment surely wasn't good.Third was of the divide between them and people who are far better off,physically and financially,the rich brats!They have such access to do so many things of value but such few indulge in it!They'd rather seek pleasure in a Playstation than come play with these people.Really man,its ironic!They are ready to afford such for-the-moment pleasures which are bloody expensive but crib at the idea of gaining invaluable insight,pleasure and catharsis at as simple and inexpensive places as these.
Hmmmm,some train of thoughts I am building!!Let me end this article and day with these last lasting thoughts of those children and the elderly people.I hope I do things much more worthwhile from now on so that I feel better the next time I see such gifted angels!
