It’s a loss...


"Love brings the best and the worst in a person. It gives you the most beautiful and the most ugly.. all in one go. It would have been so right if we were given a choice - whether to fall for someone or not. While all such noise making thoughts were banging my head, a sudden thought popped up - The fact that I fell for my best friend (a beautiful feeling...) and in the process lost a great friend (a painful eventuality...). This lingering thought of the beautiful feeling vs. painful eventuality went on to pestering heights. The thought was very disturbing as I suddenly felt that there are so many instances when on one hand good happens while on the other hand, as one transcends beyond the subtler elements of the same good, one finds that there is so much of loss too that's happening at the end of the tunnel. In this mind struggle, several instances started to get into action in my mind as if they were being played on a theatre stage right in front of my eyes. Some of such instances where on one hand good and loss coexists...Written on June 6th, 2010"

The early riser sun is up… It’s a loss…loss of the graceful moon…
The little boy was caught stealing… It’s a loss… loss of a future…
The innocent was acquitted after 14years… It’s a loss… loss of 14years…
The war has become victory…It’s a loss… loss of a million lives…
The fruit has just fallen… It’s a loss… loss of a part…                             
The beautiful honeymoon night has passed… It’s a loss… loss of virginity…
The boy has started behaving like mature… It’s a loss… loss of innocence…
The lady is becoming old and wise… It’s a loss… loss of beauty…
The failure is making you tough and strong… It’s a loss… loss of hope…
The 8-year old found a job… It’s a loss… loss of childhood…
The mother discovers her daughter lying… It’s a loss… loss of trust…
The rich get richer… the poor poorer… It’s a loss… loss of justice…
The rose was plucked for a sacred destination… It’s a loss… loss of fragrance…
The rain is so heavy…beautiful all day round… It’s a loss… loss of some grain…
The master got his new dog… to play and enjoy… It’s a loss… loss of freedom…
The damsel won the pageant… It’s a loss… loss of all words…
The patient on all-life support just chose heaven... It’s a loss… loss of purpose…
The stupid fell for her best friend…It’s a loss…loss of friend…

Cheers,
