Diaries-ii

...contd

Of many things a smile can possibly mark, often it marks the beginning, of events that may o may not be as pleasant as those that bring the first smile, but nevertheless it is where things start. An innocuous smile, may forever alter the course of things to be.

Things begin there... with the smile that followed the “hello…”

What is it that makes your heart tingle? (the smile in the hello? the one reciprocated back? Or that tiny stolen moment when ur eyes meet for a splitsecond?)

What is it that runs through your body and it makes it respond in novel ways?

When jus a gaze can tickle you within and without and a light brush of skin can arouse all ur senses together?

Is this “IT”? the thing that everyone talks about—that glorified, sacred word?

Less said, more felt
Less lived, more left
A boxful of dreams!
(Or a Pandora’s disguised?)

The Damsel in Distress Syndrome

Many years ago, a male friend quoted, “a girl/woman in a relationship is somehow more attractive to other guys”.  I didn’t really give a thought to it then, it could have been well merely his opinion. But what with guys liking girls who are already with someone else (and vice versa) I thought it wasn’t as simple as that. At a broader, abstract level, we as social creatures, seek conformity in our actions, a kind of acceptance. We are more willing to conform to something that has been already accepted. More than often we conform to social codes, rules, without questioning them because they already have some acceptance for them. We tend to believe that anything that has been accepted should be worth accepting. The other way of looking at it, and this one’s a personal favourite, is the Damsel-in-Distress Syndrome. Okay, there’s no such syndrome really, and I came up with the name, but it fits. So a couple of years ago, I had this friend who thought a girl was driving him nut...
अजुन माझे चुकले - माकले शब्द तुला टोचत असतील सावलीमध्ये कधी चुकून क्षण ओले भिजवत असतील पाउस म्हणून , वेड्या मनाची समजूत ही , तू घालत असशील मी नसले तरी कधी , चोरून, स्वप्न माझी पाहत असशील नसेन मी , पण हरवलेली प्रीत माझी खरी आहे एक डाव फसला , म्हणून आयुष्यभराची दूरी आहे

Its been some time since my last post…..but I was preoccupied with other matters… Back to ma writin What is the difference between addiction n habit…if any!! The first thing that I turned to for an answer was a dictionary! In the GREAT DICTIONARY (no adjective, the dictionary I refer is itself called the GREAT DICTIONARY…nt oxford, m a bit unorthodox) i found this: ADDICTED is defined as being physically dependant on a certain thing, or, being devoted to a particular interest or activity HABIT was defined as a settled or regular tendency or practice!! This may sound drab, n my reader may wonder what I am heading to, but I have a point to make, n I hope you bear up wid me The definitions above are not complete, what about mental dependence? I come to the crux of the matter now!! SMOKING: is it an addiction or a habit? its not supposed to make u mentally dependent...but then ppl do behave lyk they r aft some tym...lyk i need a cig to think, to relieve ma tension!!...
