Cut a long story short

Remember someone you have not talked to in a long while…
Hmmm, enough thinking…
Do you remember why you stopped talking? Why things went so bad that you never really could turn to that person and say “Hey! How are you doing?” Well , forget the reasons. I did! I do remember why I never could get through to that person (who I choose to think about, of late). Sometimes, it just isn’t about you! So if you have tried and got an answering machine, left an offliner that never got a reply. Give yourself a break, sweet human!
What matters is not that you failed… it’s not your fault that people find a million excuses to NOT recognize you or shake hands with you. ( Perhaps, they have been scratching themselves or maybe they sneezed too much!
Ha ha ha )
Life goes on! You try to reach out, if the distance is too great and you get no reassuring hand to hold… know for sure, Mr/Ms.”other person” that it is not enough for one to know/do what is right, sometimes you have to do wrong if you even care. Reaching out is selfish because “you” thought about that person. He/She didn’t… But, reach out anyway! You never know when the other one is going to finally believe their eyes and thank their stars that they have one somebody who so shamelessly asks for a simple HELLO.
Oh! If the world were half as nice as we dream it to be… No, No, not difficult at all. I could have been different, I could have agreed. Or I could have disagreed. But, some people (who have a very important role in our life) make up their mind to disagree, Just because of “some things, Stuff!!!”
Really now, I have been through quite a lot of nonsense in the past few years. If I had to write about it, it would be umm, interesting.. To start with I was in love, long long ago. There is always a “but”… so there is one here too. Then I went into hibernation… Denial, Battle, Acceptance, Self-pity, Regret, Confusion, Quest, Realization and then, Nothing. I should have left it at that. But, hey, I did not want to pine away! I agree I had been naive, I had been childish, I had wanted this, this and that too.. but I was ME!!! Yeah, that’s true love, first love, blah blah for you! Grrrrrrrrrowl….. Years and years later, I finally decided to move on… as luck would have it, I met a couple of jerks (inclusive of a not-so-normal human or some”thing” of the two-legged line. I couldn’t really tell)
So there’s my list of “what the hell was I thinking!!??” choices in life….
I remember all this. Yet, there is one I care to think about and cared to wonder about, even amidst every happy-sad things. One who set a standard that is impossible to meet… Perhaps, it is in vain, but I remember him…
It’s all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now
But it’s all coming back
Life is all about learning or..should I say, unlearning!
If any thing is worth some thing, it’s still worth a lot…
