My thinking has got corrupt; just as a virus that can hit a computer application and corrupt it. And then it acts bizarre. Reasons which seem convincing and justifiable no more make sense to many around me. Are they not seeing the logic or am I being too realistic to outcast from the general norms?
Marriage is not about love between two people; it is a contract two people sign with each other’s families and the couple struggles to make the so called ‘love factor’ work. Pause! Readers have all the right to reject this thought – as much I want to do the same, unfortunately, I do not anymore think goodie goodie about it.
Love? I would not even be the last person to come up with a definition of love; forget about feeling it. What it seemed like a feeling closer to love was raped so many times that even the doctor within has given up. Sometime’s the person is a jerk and you learn it the hard way and the poor next person becomes a victim of your bitter experiences. Worse is when God acts like a jerk and just for fun, takes the most important person away from this life.
Making people happy, making others around you smile and seeing to it there is no fight, argument, ensuring no misunderstanding and all this to ensure happiness for yourself in a married life. Cut to scene 2 – People with different backgrounds, varied cultural set up, different set of experiences, coming together under one roof and ensuring none of the above happens. Whoever said it is difficult to find a good job was perhaps wrong. It is far more difficult to maintain a relationship and make it work positively. Two most frequently used words “Adjust & compromise” – Phew!
Born in Mumbai, India – one of the busiest cities of the country – a city which is recognized for not knowing their neighbors. Cut to scene three – Whoever has this notion has surely seen and experienced just the tip of the iceberg. Every neighbor is interested in their neighbor – for good or bad, let us not get there, but let us assume, mostly for the latter. They may pretend they do not know you, but boy they know so much about you which you perhaps would take one more day to figure your forthcoming action.
Living life? Highly overrated. Is anyone of us living life even closer to living life the way we want to? Yes? You are either fortunate or too adjusting in nature. Life is fun? Everything costs money! To see a scenic place, to eat good food, to sit by a sea face, but for that you commute and spend. Commutation is money and even if you decide for a walking trip –time is money.
To get all of it, you work like crazy and make some money. Cut to climax – scene 4 – Monday to Friday, you work for 9-10 hours, commute to home in utmost annoying traffic, come back home tired, drained out, eat some food (which you are then least interested in) and sleep. Alas! You know it while sleeping; you have the same routine to start with the next day. Weekends? Sleep, rest, go clubbing, read and sleep for the same day.
Life is really beautiful, isn’t it?
