Relation-ships

Well, I'm awake at 3 a.m. and not feeling sleepy. Do what? Listening to Shreya's "Munbe Vaa" and Rahman's "NY Nagaram" from J.O.K. Some of Rahman's best works in recent past exhibited. And thought of writing about the ship that sails through in our lives, the all complex and simple, the all oblivious and blatant, the all too conspicuous and perplexing one.. (can sound all that cliche'd but thats what being said it is the way it is)

So what makes this 'MAZE' never cease to amaze me? Personalities unlimited! Just being cognizant of these characters in others and then introspecting characteristic in oneself.

The way relationships are interwound among people with totally different idealogies or very similar traits is just worthwhile to note. How we all go for that one thing that eludes us, sometimes for a life time and sometimes for just seconds.. when what we wanted sits/stands/waves/jumps at us but we being totally oblivious to it. Some do take note of it and embrace with both arms. Some are just caught up too much into past and pain that TIME cannot erase...

So why do we get lost in the ship with directions to no-where thinking its now-here? I think its just human nature and perception of things. Some get too far lost, some take note of it before its too late and revert back and for some its just a way of "learn, check and proceed". This learning is where I believe most people are. Its upto what we do with what we learn that matters. get lost again? dude! Life is not too sweet to give us a second chance always! Sometimes to even get a single chance should be considered blessed enough.

So why do certain relationships elude us for ever? Maybe it wasnt meant to be there in the first place. If it were to be a sealing one, nothing can stop it. Of course, one cannot afford to think that things fall in place by itself and stay idle. But at the sametime a wild goose chase behind the ever eluding relationship is just futile most times.

I've heard that each of our life is a story that interweaves with another on acquaintance and becomes a new story by itself and so forth. You want to take it beyond a story? Its a choice. But remember, it needs to be a conscious choice. No room for "cross a bridge when one comes to it" attitude. If one falls for it, well its the all too familiar lost route..

I read this in one of my friend's profile and I coudn't agree more. For a qn which asks on what he learnt from past relationships, he mentions that if the Relationship was really worthwhile, there would be nothing "Past" about it and he would keep it "Present".

A judicious judgement on what needs to be "present (present within us)" and what needs to be "past (push past us)" is something one needs to Master. Well, life is so simple to figure it out.. yah right!
