We all take our life as single entity (at least I am guilty of doing so). What we do not realize that there are actually so many people who are connected to our life in some way or other. And I am not talking only about the people close to our lives like parents and acquaintances but someone distant as well. Someone we might even not know, for example imagine you came to work today by a rickshaw. It could be that it was his first earning of the day. You didn't even know that or even give a thought that you were responsible. And if I think in the opposite way, think of the person you refused. Who knows, may be he didn't even get a meal!!! By telling all this my intention is neither "blaming" nor "praising" anybody. I am just writing down my thoughts.
This was probably a very direct example. There could be something very indirect.
If you have been to the mechanical lab (I am sorry if you r not an engineer), you must have seen the gears. One is responsible to rotate the other and the process continues as long as there is another gear. May be the whole thing works like that. The influence of one person's action (one gear) on the other person (another gear) depends on the situation (like in case of gear it depends on the no of teeth). Ah!!! what a technical way of speaking ;)
But may be for now I should concentrate on closer things and not on the distant ones because they are actually in my hands. Realization is quite a thing, but what if u realize you are mistaken yet you know you have actually let the whole situation go out of your hands, that just as you think your life as a single entity there may be someone else doing the same thing. And that his/her actions will probably influence your life in a strong way. It is then that I come to know, well life is not so simple either mine or someone else'. That human are social beings. It is all interwoven in a very complex manner and I cannot separate myself from the whole web-like stuff.
But the whole thing is soon forgotten. Until another situation arises or I am given another 'lecture'!!! But then thankfully I have those persons who keep giving me those lectures, whether or not i listen to them.
Thanks to those special persons of my life and if I have ever been a cause of pain. All I can say is I am sorry.

Hi Anki !
Kool ! I mean albeit your views (CHECK UR SPELLING 4 THIS WRD - YOU MOSTLY WRITE VEIW INSTEAD OF VIEW - MAY B TYPO) do contain certain technicalities.. but still all they actually allude is the .. (it is definitely an apt title -) "realisation" that life is not about individuals..or individualistic approach (towards where unfortunately our society is slowly progressin').. it has been always about the group.. the mutual understanding.. no human is complete .. take example of Jig-saw puzzle .. or any assembly line,. where each person makes difft parts..but its their combined effort..which is acknowledged as the product !
Nice to traverse the journey. its just like tht.. :-)..tht YOU think in a particular direction..write abt it.. thn the reader re-lives those moments..he/she traverses the same path.. n in the end. its up to his/her personal experience whether to appreciate or not.. all I can say is - I do :-)
Take care
Bye
P.S. - May be I missed to say this in mail..but I am truly thnkful (now tht i know)..to you to allow me also to have an access to this admirable(so far definitely) collection of cerebral voyages :-).. I hope it grows more n more ...
