Who shot the shooting star...

Met Dad yesterday as he's in town for a DRDO conference. Well, what should I say. He has grown a bit old now. Not that old but yeah, hair turned a lil more grey than I last noticed. We talked for a while after dinner, while having some tea. Talked about Mom, kiddo and how things are going. He went to bed and I got back to work but couldn't coz there were things in my head that wanted me to sit idle for a while...think about things that are capable of sneaking out slowly in a way that you can hardly notice them and then one day you realize that they are gone, forever....silly things, cute things...things that made you happy... in a sad way!

It took me few math classes to understand the Time equations, to understand that time is a continuous function...but there are many things that we have to figure out ourselves to believe in it. Time equations, Dream equations...Love equations. Somehow i had to unlearn most of them to get them right. May be I'm still too far from getting them right. Well, Time is not continuous, its a series of flashes...beautiful moments, painful moments, happy moments, melting moments...all captured in postcards in a time album called Life. Sometimes I wonder if chasing your dreams take away a lot from you. A lot of those snaps go missing from that Time Album. Some people are lucky to see their parents grow old, some are lucky to have sisters, some go to Venice and some, well some get to understand Love. Love...hmmm as if Life wasnt weird enough already.

A friend, well not exactly but yeah someone who I feel I connect to in a strange way, said recently, "People will only do to you what you allow them to do...".....kept me smiling for a while...in a sad way. We do allow people to come near, share things...but that is because we believed in something, because we saw something magical in them or may be in ourselves, once...but things change, people change and what seemed to be true once is never true again...so honey, may be its not our fault.

They said, the last solar eclipse happened a hundred years ago. Stupid people. I had one early this year. Another eight years ago and many more. We all have Solar eclipse in our life, dont we?...those three minutes of darkness threatens to take away everything from you. But when the sun is out again, things are back as they were before...Is it :)? Dont you think, some things never get to be the same again, ever. Who's fault is it...the Sun's, the Moon's or Where we ended to be when it happened? May be all, may be none...As I say, few questions are not meant to have an answer...the rest seem to be unimportant !!! If it did not make any sense to you then probably I am happy for you :)...
