It is a fast world. A very fast world. No time to stop. No time to wait. It keeps moving at a
ricocheting bullet's speed and every day we find ourselves at this odd position of trying to catch that bullet by our teeth, yes metaphorically!! Skeptics would often deem the world we live in today as a "crazy mess" where rules and norms are flouted for the sake of the final attainment and yet are in odd alignment to the organised chaos we all are subjecting ourselves to. But let's take a moment of quiet here and pan and zoom at those specific moments of our lives where the din of the everyday life calmed down a little, and a mellow tune wafted in the air around us. Some moments, whether lasting or fleeting that have registered themselves in our memories and no matter how old the brain gets those remain as new a new film roll, no noise, no disturbance, in contemporary parlance like a 2160p 4k HD video, no buffering. Everyone has those don't we? And often associated with those memories is/are someone/many of our own kind. This is human nature. And humans are social animals. Or have we become so nuclear in our choice of existence that we do not necessarily associate any good memories with anyone of our kind. I bet we haven't. Evolution hasn't caught up with us so fast. And hopefully Darwin's brainchild will not in this front throughout the existence of life as we know it, for if not for nothing, at least for the sake of satiating the most carnal of human needs. However as the current age would have it, our interactions with the likes of our kind have become more unattached than we would like them to be. Baring oneself to another has become a task requiring tremendous amount of conviction and the fathomable knowledge that may be that trust with which we entrust another be just another fodder for gossip. May be we miscalculate our relationships and the projectile motion of emotions fall to the target not intended upon. But it is what it is. Sometimes we fall back to what the human nature is, a solid head and a gooey heart. We cannot contain emotions every time in a lead canister and sometimes we have to take that leap of faith. We cannot decide what another makes of it. If he/she decides to dump that trust down the proverbial gutter or embrace and reciprocate it or may be it just doesn't matter at all. Because we do not control another. We do not dictate the terms of their life. We promised the forever bond, sharing a part of our frail and vulnerable energy with them hoping it will be forever safe, not tampered with, not taken as our weakness, not the other way round. But may be, just may be, in the best case scenario, their exists some fine balance in this universe where faith like a dimension invisible to the naked eye is an energy which can never cease to exist but only passed on from one to another. May be our frailties and fear are taken as nothing but another idiosyncrasy that defines us and not as our formidable weakness.This is an Utopian fantasy, agreed. But who said fables cannot be real? Is it too much to ask for? Or is there some fancy system of justice for those responsible for any disturbance in the fine balance?
I'll not fret over the answer for something tells me that time with all it's theatrics will reveal that unto me.
