It doesn't matter. I wonder what does. If I had to make a list of the things that would matter to me, trust me, the list will contain a number of things but mostly stricken off. We live life forward but strangely we learn it only backward. There had been a numerous incidents which I always thought would matter. It probably did... I am not sure. Seriously. Because in the end, I am still standing here glad that I had a life of the kind I had and that certain things did not matter. Although may be standing at that point of time I migth have just thought "why me!" or for the matter "why not me!"
There are so many on the other hand that did matter while I had actually thought, they would never. When I was younger, I used to have a list of things that I will not do. With time that list faded as I actually did some of them. It did not matter. As I grew up, that list was replaced by a list of things I would do. It is easier to focus on what to do than what not to do. Like they say it is hard not to imagine a blue elephant when you are asked 'not to' do so. Lots of things do matter. Who am I to question that. 'Cause life is a series of incidents one actuated from another. If I told you that those incidents do not matter, you do not need an IQ above 100 to disbelief me.
What I meant all this while is that in the long run it probably is not the incident that mattered but the way I took from there, the direction I went.
Made sense? How does it matter anyway!
So many things are told without words being phrased.
Can you not know what silence hath expressed?
In the quiet emptiness of mere silence,
There is much more than what words can make sense...

why r u so confused?
@ aditya.
Welcome to my blog.
I dont think the word "confused" fits here exactly. Whatever the term may, had I not been tht, you wudnt be reading it. :)
Hi Anki ! :)
True, it depends purely on our will, wish or whim as to what we choose as sth that 'matters' (or sm1)... and this thing can be as narrow as the tiniest of blot on a paper to as vast as our whole life and its seemingly grand decisions (Money,career,family)! ...
Also, If we r too conscious about reminding, elaborating to ourselves or others tht "smthings" dont matter ... perhaps we are shouting that they actually do(deep inside) ...
What matters? ... incidents ? their perceptions ? ... or our decisions to make these 2 seem as if they matter ....
Many a times, in the moments of utmost hurry n utmost leisure.. I feel.. as if all that matters is an honest smile full of self-esteem(a feeling sans guilt - generating contentment n passion simultaneously) ... a company of genuine people (the bliss) ... and nothing elsse....
Keep smiling Moon ! :)
Tc !
some of it definitely did!
things that seem all important now lose their significance with time, or a change in circumstances...
