The forwarded mails

It is true that the forwarded mails lack any personal touch. But surprisingly the world still stretches beyond this. Sometimes even other’s thought have some resonance with our mindset. Then these ‘forwarded’ pieces , though composed by somebody else, become a representative of own mind too. Sometimes they pave way for something common — evoke identical thoughts — between the two people. So even with all the ‘impersonal’ thing about the forwarded mails, they serve a lot in building a relationship.
It’s much like enjoying a common movie or a song. We don’t create the song or the movie, but a together- viewing still makes us like it. We undergo the same range of emotions and thought processes; eventually the minds begin to resonate.

Singular partner’s past affair

This sensitive issue has been broaching in my mind for quite sometime. Many of my pals use this as an excuse to get me also involved in their ‘playboy fun activities’, which just doesn’t convince me, ever, to get indulged. The issue of ‘fun’, notwithstanding all the open views i have about it, (and with due respect to taboo-ic rejection of the thoughts of free love for all) a beloved's past affair is a psychological upheaval. I think there probably still exist a positive answer to handling the case of one the partners' past afair when the other is innocent.
I often think that if sociology and social psychology ever were a subject for the IIT entrance test, the JEE, then this question of handling singular partner’s past affair would have aptly judged people’s mettle. Not all people can dare to think of this situation and worse enough, try solving it in a constructive way. Self-annihilation seems to be most tempting solution. Of late I have started feeling that there still exist some good solutions to it, because life definitely has solutions of such cases. Therefore, all that the people need to do is not to get bookish and watch this world with an open mind.
To get my possible hints to the solution , I turn back to my favourite place, the movies, which deal with such topics. One of the flicks I recall is one slower one ‘Dil kya kare’ and another one, “Mrs and Mr Iyer”.

on nostalgia

Nostalgia is a cosy feeling. Thinking about good old days makes you feel good. But there is definitely a hitch with thing also. Too much of past makes the future obscure and makes the present look unhappy. You become a victim of the past where u my even stop moving ahead in life. Seldom look-backs help in checking up and realigning your future but heavy doses of nostalgia are dangerous.
