We all have all kinds of people in our lives. Everyone is there for a purpose and you share something different with each and every one of them. Even though "purpose" sounds very crude, that's what it is at the end of the day. But how do you know if you're talking to that person because you're just plain used to him/her or because you genuinely can't afford losing that person and that he/she is actually irreplaceable. So, where do you exactly draw the line?
As ironic at it sounds, I think the only way you realize is when the person leaves for a while. Leaving to return? Maybe yes or maybe that's just the end of it.
Very random and convoluted thought. I know. I guess I just ace the "skill" of ruining things by dissecting every emotion and every thought that crosses my mind.
I know how that feels.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, absence does make hearts profound with rich love.
At times, sure.
DeleteNo, dissection sometimes heightens the beauty of the sentiment. You realise how complex, or simple, it is, and both extremes have a certain allure to them. Random thought, off the top of my head, hence the flooziness.
ReplyDeleteWow. I like the way you put it. Don't feel all that bad anymore :P
DeleteYour blogposts start with a theme I'd like to read but then you preempt them! Would love to read longer ones :)
ReplyDeleteOh! Thanks for that Atrisa :)
DeleteMore often than not it's addiction. We get habituated to the person. While it is said that distance makes the heart grow fonder, it is also said that out of sight is out of mind. And none of the statements is always true or always false.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the dissecting every emotion bit.
That again is an addiction for many of us :)
Yes it's possible to get habituated to that person and sometimes we think it's a big deal (in our mind) and make it larger than what it is only to realize later that it was just us jumping to conclusions.
DeleteDissection is cool.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of which, going a step further, you don't need to be very insecure and/or cynical to sometimes that think that a prolonged absence may lead to a complete substitution or removal of someone? YOu learn, often rather easily, to move on in life. without them.
Yes, when they step out, you either learn to move on without them or you realize their importance even more ..or sometimes their exits just go unnoticed.
DeleteDissection is cool? Ya? :D
