I sit down to explore my mood on paper. A mood that’s hooked on to my thoughts. Thoughts young and old. Playing hide and seek. Lying somewhere in my mind – unseen, unheard. And then one vague thought grows. It grows till it reaches a limit. But strangely, when it gets there, it doesn’t blow up and burst. It doesn’t subside either. It moves quietly through the last inch of nerve. The last millimetre of aura. And then nothing seems worthwhile. I give up thinking.

Dear faultless wanderer,

I’ve quit that kinda exercise and Mr Daniels is a lil expensive for a single woman like me.

Do you have any more advice to offer?

Faultless Wanderer: Actually it isn't that obvious. I'm smart.

You want him to get lost in a kumbh mela? Let's conspire!

Wisdom of men has taught us that Thinking Is Fatal.

It must be amnesia or maybe I’m ageing quicker… because now when I read it, I can’t figure out the post or the comments! I guess if I don't understand half the things half the people half mean to say half the time, then I’m in luck, because they didn't say them to begin with. Lucky me!
