What do we know about life? I have always asked myself and others this question again and again. But I couldn't get a concrete answer. I didn't stop though, I kept on asking myself this question day in and day out and there was this Eureka moment. But then, what did I know? Whether I was right or whether I was wrong. So what that Eureka moment didn't come from me, it came from someone who probably thought about life looking at someone. So ultimately we are all related by a million invisible threads I thought and those were true. Very true indeed. We tend to think our imaginations are our own, but how? Whatever you got, you got it from here. Those imaginations, those discoveries, those inventions. So nothing in this world is someone's personal property, isn't it? Same was with me, my eureka moment came from someone else, shall I call it someone related by invisible thread? Well maybe he was related.
Each and everyone of us have friends, I didn't have the luck to know the true meaning of friendship and didn't have any friends. But there was this guy whom I met on a journey. I cannot recall the details of the journey. Where was I going to? What purpose was that journey meant for? He didn't even know the fact that he was the answer to all my curiosity, to all my unattended questions. I recall his quote, "Dear, If I were to die tomorrow, I wouldn't have qualms about my life because what if we didn't have a tommorow, we had our today." Then a question sprang up in my Mind, What better a definition could one get about life? It was just a two line quote but probably was made of a zillion words. "But from where did the inspiration come from?" I asked him. Again the answer was so depressing. It was about a girl and then it was yet another teenage love story which brought out a man out of that college kid. There I was laughing inside looking at him and was thinking at the same time what a mockery he is making of himself. Love? Hell, there is no such thing as love in this material world. But who could have explained this to him? I could have but I chose to be selfish, for I had already got what I wanted, the definition of life.
At the same time I had the urge to know his story. His love story which made him say such a quote about life. It definitely wasn't a pessimistic one, but wasn't that optimistic either. What was he referring to when he said "We had our today?" Even if he had his today then why was he sad? Did she leave him? Did things turn ugly between them? But he believed a lot in destiny. He said, " You will know the story when the oppurtune moment arrives, till then I hope we will bump into each other once in a while, or probably atleast once in this lifetime."
But "What if we Didn't?", I asked. Then say to yourself that we had our today came the reply.
Well, I had to wait for probably 4 years to bump into him again. In between I was trying to deduce a theory of my own. The theory which I got from, looking into the eyes of the nature.
I had found myself but lost my dear friend, though he wasn't actually my friend but then he had taught me a lot about life and how could I have forgotten him so easily? We definitely were related.
Some Journey's are worth taking isn't??
