A lesson

Life is full of surprise. I mean you never know what you are gonna learn, when and how. The lesson might hit you bad on your face, or just come by as a sweet melody..

I learnt a lesson today. Learnt it by getting slapped by it (ie the bad way)... I learnt, however much you care about a person, sometimes its best not to show it.. naa on second thoughts, most of the times its best not to show it.. Sometimes its best to just let it be. Its best to wait for them to speak their heart out when they feel like. Its best in a situation like this to be quiet. To be a quiet company, to talk when they feel like. Just be quiet and make your presence felt, make them feel that you'r there no matter what. A feeling which has to be felt by them, given by you. Else you'll end up getting insulted by them, even when they wont mean to hurt you.

Its called as frustration baby.. But then who likes getting insulted and then go through that ritual of "'m sorry" and "I didn't mean to blah blah" and waste n number of money by messaging all this... I mean so much of time and emotions can be saved. So much of time can be saved by being normal. Just one small "I need your quiet company" would do wonders. The other person, if a good friend, will understand and give you your space, and walk quietly. Its as simple as that.

So this is what I learnt. And as my chemistry ma'm used to tell in class "Only fools repeat a mistake twice". I got her message loud and clear. What learnt is etched. No repeatation entertained. ;)
