Relationships...
Boy meets Girl... and Girl meets Boy
And they...
Well... for the sake of this blog being rated PG-13, I shall not post the rest of that ballad here. Nevertheless I shall write what inspired it. Companionship although quiet fulfilling is perhaps the most scandalous of human endeavours. What's the big deal... you may wonder! But the fact remains that you may be be pretty relaxed about the whole idea of relationships... but folks around you... most of whom you really care about, get all hyper when they hear the Boy meets Girl story!
So... what does the Boy and Girl do when the seemingly innocous world that they live in with its values and codes of morality get hell bent on making them walk the line... much to their ire!
The strong and stupid ones take the fight to the next level... mostly with disastrous results. The weak and meek ones get subdued and forget that they ever met. But the smart ones lobby hard... play the mind game... make it seem like all of this was wished for by everyone... including the Big Brother... who has been watching all this while!
But... thats just half the battle won! The really challenge lies in honesty... not only towards one's significant other... but to oneself. When we get into this adventure... we are always foolishly idealistic... which is a good thing... for thats precisely what keeps us going. It is a life long rally that has to be kept alive stroke for stroke... without loosing a breath or skipping a beat... thats idealism for you! Till Death do us part... as is said by some of us who take the vows... for some others it transcends into their subsequent lives as well!
Having said that... I do believe relationships are really worth all the trouble one needs to go through for merely keeping it alive. It is worth it... every bit of it!
