Obsessed

Focusing on one thing or person robs you of the simple pleasures that life has to offer. The feel of the wind caressing your hair, seeing a sunset and moonrise in one evening, catching up with girlfriends and unwinding. Just being! I'm leaving for Bangalore in two days and I have spent the entire week catching up with friends I have not seen in ages. It has been the most beautiful week ever! Let's see... I have met 5 friends in five days. Hanging with the boys was great fun. We drove though the rain, water pounding against the windshield, making funky patterns on the windows and waving at us. A chilled beer, roohafza, water, pizza and a smoke. Cool breeze, perfect weather and relaxed company. Next visit, runaway train. A cozy evening...CNN-IBN, NDTV, MTV...a host of channels, a bundle of laughs and inside jokes on the television industry. A chilled out convo, a perfect con job (I'm soon gonna be a professional con artist at this rate :) Itika Sharma after dat was sooooo relaxing. A stroll through Janpath, a string of flowers, tasty gulab jamuns and a surprise gift! Den a home cooked meal, face peel, a luxurious bath and our very own home disco! Finally we snuggled up and went to sleep with the AC on high! Now I'm at another friend's place...Subuhi. We had the most amazing day. We met at JNU and wandered like adventurers through the campus. We got lost but that was fun too. We walked through a construction site, wandered through a veritable jungle, and finally reached PSR rock! We sat there and watched the sun sink and the moon rise. Distraught lovers destined to meet twice and embrace but never to be with each other. Thus started our philosophical debate on relationships, Murray's theory of Self Actualisation, the essence of happiness and a variety of interesting topics. We just cooked dinner and are chilling in our nighties preparing to watch 'Obsessed'. Looking forward to a brirthday party and a nice long holiday. The obsession is fading and is fragmented over a wide range of areas. This is how I like it. Wide focus not narrow focus! Obsessed with life!
