You meet someone. Sometimes you like the person, sometimes you don't.

Sometimes you give the person (and yourself) a second chance, sometimes you don't.

You talk, you listen, you smile, you get angry,

you know a little, you share/give a little,

when she says that something, it always tickles you;

when he does that gesture, you always (secretly) smile fondly,

and before you know it,

you have a soft spot for that person already.

"be with someone with makes you laugh.

you would live a long and fruitful life together."

Is it true?

i seem cold and indifferent,

cool and aloof,

but i am actually bursting with words,

and burning with passion inside.

sometimes in the morning on the train it takes immense amount of effort to refrain myself from wanting to rest my head on the back of the person standing in front of me.

Received a mailer, reminding me that it's near that time of the year again, it primed me to think back to 4? (has it been? already?) years ago when i rather thoughtlessly (in my humble opinion) just went ahead to do it without so much care for consequences or consideration of aftermath of any sort. I still remember the response my mother gave to my father's alarm- 'your daughter's always doing things like this'. Truth is, i never thought i would have gone through such a whirlwind of experiences/emotions; i never thought it would have changed the way i perceive things/people, the way people perceived me; i never thought it would have shaped me (however little/much) to become who/how i am today.

now,

living in 2011,

i seriously wonder, if i would have done it? had i know the cost of things and how much it would have changed me-

Maybe i would have still done it anyway.
