Sometimes (thanks to a friend Abhijit Panicker, who's clicked some good profile pics for me "thats his photographik magik")i get such scraps on my dying orkut profile.

This got me thinking... - if im friends with myself first...?? ... i dont think so...

1) Friends spend time with each other - well i dont ( or atleast i dint till 5 months back). When not working (most of the times that is) im reading, watching TV, gossiping (on gtalk or phone) or listening to music and thinking how vast the universe is and how im just a tiny little spec in the universe. (good music transcends me into a different world)

2)Yes, we can be friends with ourselves because we still not have become one with our innerselves. My heart and mind almost always want to do exactly opposite/contradictory things :) While my heart would want to hop, skip and jump to the next door marwari chaat wala (called Gangor) and have a plate of 'thandi thandi colorful bundi wali' pani puri and pav bhaji, my mind would think of that Reminka evening gown that i want to be able to wear for a friend's bachelor's party in november, for which i will need to shed a THOUSAND kilos (: 1 kilo in my stubborn built equals to 100 kilos worth to be lost)

anyway, coming back to the point... we are not yet one with ourselves and hence two different entities and hence its important to be friends with oneself first.

I have come across this, in conversations, in books, on TV, zillions of times...that this generation (thats me) is not at peace with itself.

And true, as much as I would love to write more on this topic (after giving some thought to it and bringing the flesh out (as my x-boss used to say), i am.... as restless as ever... as impatient as always... and as lazy as a sloth... i leave it at this and get back to some gossiping on gchat :)

Thanks Prerna (my colleague from Baroda Times)...for truly being a prerna :) and nudging me to write this new post :)
