Random II

This is a complete random piece of work with just one outlying message. It will be conveyed while you read

Thousands of thought are generated by the normal human mind in a single day(About 60,000 of which about 56,400 are about our own needs, wants ans concerns). Out of these thoughts, some are related to an individual or a group of individuals. These individuals are in someway influencing your lives. Some due to recent interactions and some due to your constant exposure to them(it sounds like some reaction) 

Now what i want you to do is just start your day with the following thought in mind - Keep a count of how many times a person(S)(lets call him/her a person , individual sounds too formal) comes to your mind and try to relate the recent events in your life with that person. This way you can figure out why you are having thoughts about that person. It may be because of separation , infatuation , admiration or just pure friendship. Whatever be the reason these individuals are there in your mind,fiddling with it, your dreams so why not figure out why they are there( i am pretty sure many of you have it all figured out , but just try doing this...you will get some certainty in this otherwise uncertain life)

Coming to why i wrote this post
The following lucid dream made me think and whatever you see is the result of the following 

Scene I 

It was a rainy day and she was all drenched. Her wet long locks were brushing her back and the almost white color of her skin contrasted with the navy blue colored top of hers. I could see her trying to dry herself and she saw me peeping through. As she caught a glimpse of me trying to catch a glimpse of her she jumped to reach me and then she would kiss my face over and over again, with her silky wet hair, moistening it with the perfume of an inexplicable fragrance.( line courtesy- Abhinav Mathur). 

This is the small dream i had and it explains multiple things

First of all the female character , newly found friend , 

Rain - All because of the rains in Mumbai 

Perfume- the lady is fond of perfumes

All i want to say is that there is some hidden meaning in our thoughts , try to observe them , try to correlate and fit them into the bigger picture.

Poke

Note to the reader: I am not a Facebook promoter so after reading this don't change your mind.

From the very beginning of our life , we have been doing IT and will continue to do it in the future as well. As kids we did it physically maybe in the classroom , while playing or even while bullying another kid(poke in the eyes ; if u were a bully). It might hurt people(eg. Raina Kaur; yea u can now kill me :P)
That was physical poking , coming to the other kind (the more severe kind) the non-physical.Poking your nose(whatsoever size and shape) in others business. Yes reader you have been doing it whether you admit it or not.Some people find it irritating.This was all about the classic poke thing. Now coming to what this post is about.

Zuckerberg in 2004 started something which is now a part of every modern human being's life, Facebook and with it the Poke. Its the most subtle form of virtual contact known to mankind(i just made that up). For me its the one thing that keeps me from not leaving Facebook(just exaggerating :P).
Poke does all the things which a Classic Poke does(except the physical thing).
Its a subtle way of reaching out a person(if u are afraid to send a friend request; though i don't believe in this)
For new friendships it is a conversation starter.
You can't always keep in touch with everyone , not even your closest one's but you will log on to FB for sure , and with that single poke it's like a modern way of showing that you are there. A poke from someone is a sign of the above and the best part of it is , it's just a click away(for you lazy ass's out there)


Poke from someone is something which reminds you that yea that person is as Vella as you are,you haven't been forgotten and you will never be(if in a poke war). Sometimes pokes are lost , like friendships in real life are but this is where you re-poke and forget the past and move on. Yes all this with a single poke.

At one point of time poke will be the only point of 'contact' between you and your friend.
Its a pressure reliever and its engaging ,trust me it kills boredom ,it makes your boring meetings(when in office ,in a conference call) interesting and it is simple(a click away).
I am not sales pitching here , just sharing what i feel about Poke and Poke Wars. If you could relate to anything , you are probably ready to poke someone.
Go for it and with time you will realize i was right.
Let the War begin......

True That

Well we often learn most of the things the hard way , this is the way life is and it might seem unfair but i am pretty sure what goes comes around. The world after all is a small place.

This post might offend people i know and it's a short one

Friend is like a brother from another mother with whom u share almost every aspect of life but lately the concept has changed , this concept holds true only till the friend whom u call a friend doesn't have a love interest. When she/he comes into the picture the whole scenario changes (EXCEPT for a few in my case).
You become the second priority and you are being referred to only when you are needed much like Amitabh's character in the movie Baghbhan , a heart touching story but it holds true here

You are like the cast of a fractured bone , if the friend is hurt or needs you , you support him/her but once the job is complete the cast is thrown away so are you . This cycle is endless, one friend to other and to other. Coming to the good part of it , it acts as a filter to distinguish good friend from a friend.
