Today was a sure forgettable day. Disastrous sounds perfect. Had an argument with her, lost a bet in office, and got wet on the way back home. Back home, i am still thinking about my friend who suddenly seemed so wrong to me today that i couldnt help losing my cool. Does an idle mind stop it at there? I checked on my mobile every two minutes for any I-am-sorry messages from her. With nothing coming along, i switched off my mobile for a no-one-cares-apart-from-me moral victory . And then switched it on after an hour to still find no new messages. Frying pan to fire, i start getting deep and Aristotalean about relationships and the whys, whos and hows of it. Flipped out an old India Today and started reading about rising food prices and its impact in our economy. Suddenly out of no where two ants started parading on the page. One, was trying to ride the other and the other was moving around in circles amidst jungles of letters and paragraphs . My first impulse was to blow them off. But then,i stopped, as the article wasnt getting any better and my idleness fast started generating options about the two.I thought, perhaps they are running away from home, or simply playing chor- police, perhaps it is the tenacity of friendship or the brutalness of a rape, May be they loved each other or damned plain hate.These two fascinated me now,what did they want?What?
It was just then, i sneezed.
I opened my eyes. Saw one of them displaced a few millimetres northwards in the page , lost, and looking for the other. Alone.
I smiled. The futility of relationships!

kya bandhu...."The futility of relationships! " pahle se pata tha par tumhare post ne kuch purane zakhmo ko fir se kured diya. :(
apt and nice...there are some things that can be described by words.. but most of our feelings, relationships and thoughts are such that they cannot be described by mere words.. words can put meaning to those things but they cant emote them.
Nice SP. keep spding(spreading) such thoughts .. It always shows how small we are in this vast universe..
