Temporary Relationships ...


Temporary relationships are like rented apartments. One moves in with a lot of hope, anticipation, anxiety, zeal and vigour. A feeling of starting afresh replicates the monotony of life. New beginnings paint a new picture on the canvass of life. The colorful hue is a mix of ambivalence n optimism. The investment of emotions is pragmatic with a tinge of senstivity.A sense of familiarity, belonging and bonding finds its roots. Its like giving a conscious facelift to the sore wounds. Fresh experiences, memories, milestones head towards newer destinations. Just that as soon as the lease comes to an end, one has to vacate and leave with no strings attached. Its like putting a muzzle on things which once held some importance in our lives. Gradually the ritualistic scheme of things chalks a new path of indifference which regurgitates the soul with nostalgia time n again.

An afterthought ...


God loves the colorful rainbow as much as the labouring seas. So why is it , the people born with a silver spoon are coveted by the society. For some, its a constant struggle and for the priveledged few, its a life of luxury and lifestyle. The inheritance of such a lineage is darted with a monologue - ' What has one achieved on one's own merit and name ?' Ain't being a bearer of good character an achievement in itself ? How many of us can boast of a life sans dishonesty, contempt, manipulation when in a corporate life ? Politics doing rounds in the official periphery maligns the soul. The nouveau rich eke out and tempt the jealous entities. Is there any end to such trivialities and speculation ?
