These are the times when one gapes at the heights of ignorance. One wonders how a person can possibly be so not aware of the causes of the simplest of things happening around her. The ‘her’ in question being the ignoramus in the sketch above. Or could it be that she is just playing clueless? .. or is it plain modesty? .. I know not

The dodo keeps asking me “You are ‘beautiful’…how can anyone stay so ‘beautiful’?” … and me being not so modest a bloke, keeps accepting every compliment thatz coming my way. Though it was with a pinch o salt at first, eventually I took the above compliment too, to my credit, not taking into account the ‘sissy-ness’ of the word. Then it came as a sudden realization-like that 1000 watt bulb that just pops up inside the dark alleys of your mind throwing light at all those minor details you have been missing out on.
I decided to pack my backpack with all the supplies I would need for ma lil expedition, travel through one and all of those neglected alleys, and get to the bottom of the mystery – The root cause of my..ahem!..’beauty’. Every road I explored took me to the same thing. I realized all of a sudden that despite all the thousands of hours of my life that the mean clock has ruthlessly ticked away there were actually 17,520 hours which the meanie could do nothing about… I haven’t missed out on even a single second that passed during the last two years of my life. Topped with a 20 tonne inborn reluctance, I admit that the credit for this does not go to me.

When you keep something that is beautiful beyond description so close to your heart, atleast some of the beauty is bound to rub off on you. Sometimes the ‘beautiful being’ can be dumb enough not to realize that the beauty reflecting off the one so close to her is her own. ..Or, as I said earlier, she could be being blatantly modest. Either way, I gotta tell you guys that ever since she contaminated my life with her presence, every moment ……….has been worth living…every moment seemed to make me grow younger. My dreams seem to be growing every day… and I believe life is all about dreaming… and since my dreams are never gonna cease to exist, they make me immortal. Looks like I’ve found ma fountain of youth, and I got no intention of letting anyone else drink from it. But however, u can always get one of your own… Good luck ;) ..and happy second anniversary to us !!
