The distractions of a simple mind

I remember getting caught looking out of the window in the middle of a university lecture. Once dreaming about my upcoming holiday when in the office meeting!   Or worse, I have also been guilty of getting engrossed in the TV soap, in the middle of a serious conversation with my husband! Can’t believe I manage to get into such silly situations very easily. How many of you are guilty of these humanly possible crimes?   I am sure, every one of you must have had your own moment of distraction when you really shouldn’t have! The question is ‘If everyone is guilty of this crime, should this be reconsidered for its title as ‘Guilty act’? The other day, I heard in the news that the groom got distracted by an incoming mobile message while getting married and forgot to say ‘I do’! Now, I am not saying that’s forgivable! It absolutely is not. But the question is, why did his mind chose to attend the incoming information and give up the present moment of focus? The so called

Bright Red Dress

I like wearing bright red dresses, especially with white polka dots on it or a cute little bow in the middle. I also like withered Denim Jackets, ripped jeans or the high heel boots that make the loudest sound when you walk. The only problem with all of the above is, the moment I get closer to these in a shop, I make a very descent U turn and pick up a plain blue jeans instead. You ask why?   Well, isn’t it obvious? The cute little red dress doesn’t suit my age and the ripped jeans “supposedly” does not suit my personality. The high heels are out of question as I am already among the tallest females that live today (Exaggerating a bit, but its true).   So, I choose the medium length decent tops and trousers that redefine my personality to be the same old boring self. I confirm the fact that I am who I have been, I should be or who I am supposed to be. What makes me think that I am a certain personality type?   As a child, all of our looks are designed by our pare

Logic or Love?

I am a very logical person. I believe things can be explained as simple as 1+1= 2. If 1+1 is turning out to be something other than 2 then there is definitely an error. Most of my childhood, I have been believing that it is possible to find logic, explanation and equations to everything in life. Apples fall from trees due to gravity, clouds collide up in the sky and pour down the rains due to atmospheric pressure and electrical charge difference in them, seasons change due to earth’s changing distance from sun, so on and so forth. In fact, science has tried to define equations for the most complex events in our world and galaxies ranging from weather predictions to some far away galaxy explosions. Every beautiful event in nature as well either has a hidden purpose or an explanation ; like flowers bloom to attract insects for pollination, ocean waves are generated due to gravitational forces from Moon and the beautiful white snowflakes patterns are generated due to atmosphe
