November 3rd, 2006

Hiya there folks, it’s ‘me’ once again. I hope everyone is doing fine.
Life is such a bundle of surprises. You hardly know how to make sense of anything erstwhile. Things that make sense to you today, could be as far apart as the two poles on earth. Why? This is a million dollar question. If any of you have this million dollars, then I’d be glad to answer it for you.A person once went live on television and preached that he had discovered a way that could make everyone a millionaire. He asked for just one lousy buck (one dollar) from the followers in this program and in two weeks he would return and divulge this big, gigantic secret.; “How to become a millionaire in 14 days!”
Well, as the saying goes, he returned on the tele in exactly fourteen days, and after thanking his millionth participant for his/her derisory contribution of that measly one dollar, he went on to say that he had just counted the final contribution to his success story, and that stood at one million dollar.
What am I deriving from all this. Well, the question is one’s perception. As to how you perceive things, which can make sense or non-sense. Your perception- a loss of one dollar. His perception- a gain of one dollar. Adding to it a million participant, and you could go on and on and on. Richard Bach once commented, and I just love this quote, “What the world knows as beauty in the shape of a butterfly, to the caterpillar, it is the end of the world”.
My question is, why do we forget good things for small inconsequential and frivolous petty things. We may have lots of fun one day, enjoy yourselves to the brim, and then the next day, a small trivial matter can appear, almost nonchalantly, put a block and generate a partial amnesia to what were the most important and beneficial things in life.
Like I have previously mentioned:
“There are many instance in our existence where we tend to do things because it made sense then. However, through the passage of time, and the changes that come to pass, when we try to perceive matters again, we are amazed that they do not have the same significance anymore. We even lose the perception of what we did and why we did it.”
A while back, someone asked me to describe, true love, sentimental love, and first time love. And, whether such phenomenon’s really existed or were just figments of ones imagination.
I think that relationships such as love, hate, infatuation, dislike have all got to do with energy levels a body transmits or receives from one other. A friendship goes as far as the amount of energy that is exchanged.I believe that every action that we take in our life time makes us gain or lose energy. Positive energy when things happen that in our perception are good, and negative energy when it is the other way around.
Take an example of a mother-child relationship (by the way I have embarked on this topic in my second book, A Magical Moment). If we consider the energy in physical terms or tangible terms, and take it as a ‘one’ something for rhetoric sake and give it a value of one ‘bobs’ which we will relate as the least amount of negative or positive energy one is able to transmit or receive.
Then going back and applying it to the above example, let’s assume that when a baby will smile, the positive energy received by the mother would be, say 5 bobs, and when the child is sick and crying, it will drain her of 25 bobs each time.
Then, we can measure our lives, and our day to day activities as receiving and giving away, ‘bobs’, day in and day out. Are you all with me?
Satisfied with the food we ate: 20 bobs. The Tea or coffee was too sweet : -2 Bobs. A nice movie: 5 Bobs. Watching crappy soap serials on TV, 5 for some and –5 for some. For you guys, when a beautiful lady smiles at you : a whopping 10 bobs.
Taking it more seriously. What has this got to do with relationship or love. Well, I guess, love is when the exchange of energy reaches an extraordinary level, and where the flutter of eyelids, each warm smile, tender touch, warm lips can convert bizarre levels of energy within one. True love, I think, is when an extraordinary level of negative energy from a partner will also not be enough to drain the humungous and monstrous level of positive energy gained through the relationship. That is where the word ‘sacrifice’ comes into the picture.
Only when a lot of negative energy is exchanged between partners or friends, can good friendship be relegated or destroyed. If you give out negative energy all the time, then you will find, even good friends wanting to keep away from you. Make sense?
Well, enough of this energy business. If you need to learn more, then please do not hesitate to write to me.
So, what about me. Well, these days, my positive energy level is at its lowest, and I need to do something about it. I have had a series of setbacks in the last few weeks that has drained me totally, and I really need to get my groove back. And this could be one of the reason that I am being so tardy in writing my blog these days. But, then this is what life is supposed to be.So, keep you chin up, kiddo and look at the bright side of life. It is November now, and soon the year will pass. If anyone should ask where 2006 vanished, then probably I would quote Margaret Mitchell’s book title and say “Gone with the Wind”. One day we all shall have the same fate, too.
Until then, I am alive and kicking, and I shall be back, and this, only time will tell.
Ciou for now.
