growing in relations

long gone are the times, when relating to people meant sharing your lunch in the backdrop of a soccer field.. chasing each other like mad, school bell ringing.. Now that i have grown, in all senses of the word, grown tired of things(life?) , outgrown innocence, i have started relating to people in the "grown" way.. which basically implies, i dont trust anymore.
the uninhibited way of natural trust, which knew no motive, no doubt or suspicion, just couldnt survive my growth, it died a premature death at the hands of our surroundings.. i grieve its loss, more these days than ever.

maybe its sheer joblessness that prompts me to think this through, or maybe its just a phase of time..
i pray for the latter to be true, because the beautiful quality about time is that, good or bad, it passes...

I cannot think of a better way to portray this. Its been running at the back of my head for a long time now; since we also had a discussion about this the other day.

But even then I was still in the process of searching words to portray my feelings. I felt this was a pretty deep topic to broach. Wasn't sure if I could drive the point home. And here you are, saying everything that could be said, simply in 10 lines.

Great work, dude. Keep blogging.

You deserve every bit of it, and more. Very few people could broach such topics and put them so simply.

I second that.
To write on a topic like this in just a few lines and still manage to make an impact..great stuff!

Awful nice of you to drop by, Merin. Atleast now he knows I ain't the only one to blow a trumpet for him.

Yeah, try getting back. We miss the nonsensical stuff in this blog. Nobody writes about beer or night outs anymore.
