It's ephemeral, they say
will not last long
How long is long?
Truth varies, so does time.
Is yesterday part of this long?
Maybe for once their sapience is wrong.

First, Last and everything in between
Is there a right age to fall in love? Is experience required to love somebody? It seems, so what is the right age – 12, no should be 13, teens is the right time.
At least one fling during the school years, in college no number restriction, one has to gain as much experience as possible. That’s the only way one can have an impressive love resume once out of college. You like somebody in the real world, just forward your resume. Efforts should be made to make a good love profile, after all the 1st impression matters. Maybe one can add points like –been a top performer in all my relationships or, was consistently awarded best GF/BF award for the last 5 years.
Looking at the resume the object of your interest is bound to ask – Your performance is good you are being appreciated too, then why looking for a change. Simple answer, looking for better opportunity. It was always my aim to love you, now that you are single and available I couldn’t let such a great opportunity pass. There you go you have won over the opportunity.
Points to be noted
1 - Your first love cannot be the last love. Unless you get more experience in between.
2 - Try to start as young as possible.
3 - When moving from one relationship to another, make a smooth transition.
4 - Sometimes bitterness is unavoidable be prepared for it.
5 - You can stop looking for new opportunities and settle down with the current one but for that ensure you are well settled in your career.
6 - The most important point never be sure, always leave room for doubt (doubt your feelings silly, not the other person)
7 – There is always someone better so keep looking.
And if you are the kind to be sure and can do without the trials & errors, then God help you, without experience don’t expect to be taken seriously. So if you have already lost precious years get into the game now, it’s better late than never.

She hasn’t changed
A girl who never in her life studied of her own will. Who studied enough to be able to pass, as she could not bear to repeat a class and face her parents if she failed.
She took optimum advantage of the fact that she was always the last among the girls roll calls thanks to her surname. She prepared for the orals while the 20 odd girls went through their tests before her.
When her peers were busy with their 3rd revision she would come to her senses and go through the portion and come up with a strategy to study the minimum and clear the exams.
What made this girl believe that this time she will study? that too two months before the exams. Now when passing an exam is not even a matter of saving face. How her good friend Dim had tried to dissuade her from enrolling for the PG degree. Sir why do you want to do MA, you only say degrees are of no use. But the foolish girl her head full of future glory went ahead with her plan.
Hey Bhagvan iss ladki ki nayya paar lagao.

Why a hit?
Why Rang de Basanti is a hit? Will any of one of the millions or such numbers who have been instrumental in making this movie a success actually follow the example of its protagonist, the answer clearly is No. Forget going against the law or joining the police or politics to clean the system we will continue to bribe our way through regulations because honestly it is very inconvenient to be righteous. Then why was this movie that goes so against our ‘Chalta Hai’ attitude become a hit? Why did the masses lap it up? Like this was an elixir they have been waiting for and didn’t want to miss out on the experience even if short lived.
The reason could be that at some point each one of us has gone through similar angst when we wanted to shoot the perpetrators of our angst. This is the angst that a Jessica lal, a Yunus Khan or a Satyendra dubey’s family and friends must have felt. But they did not take to arms and go on a killing spree and that is the reason why this movie is a hit. Because a bunch of fictional characters did what none of us will ever do. They avenged the wrong done to millions of commoners who don’t stand a chance of ever getting justice through the right way. They fulfilled a wish. A wish different from the regular dreams of visiting the Swiss Alps or snorkelling in the clean waters of Mauritius. Of the innumerable movies made on the subject of individuals taking on the corrupt system and coming out victors, this is the only movie that comes closer to reality in the end with the perishing of the naive heroes who for once dismiss the ‘Chalta Hai’ attitude and pay with their dear lives. I believe it was this conclusion that was the clincher for the movie and not the well-shot and presented patriotic colours of Rang de Basanti. The common man was allowed though briefly to believe that things could change if he wishes to but the end reassured him that it was just a fictional dream, we are allowed to let things be.
I am back. Well Almost.
