Meaningless Conversation
A very interesting aspect of human life is relationship. Now I am not talking about a man and woman only. Neither am I limiting it to any social context. For instance the relation between the checkout clerk and the grumpy old woman; or sulking conductor and equally sulking passenger; is what I am talking about.

“Will you shave your moustache when we get married” These were the exact words, that broke the silence in a taxi moving through Mumbai city. Year 1997. One of those moments in my life, when I felt completely numb. Stuck for words. Senses were jammed and could not respond.

I think they are talking about a euphoric emotion that makes them oblivious to reality. They are the happiest they have ever...

I don’t know the answer but one thing I have definitely observed is that as one gets older, the need and desperation to have a companion gains a fanatic proportions. This is especially important to observe since the younger generation is also, in more than one way, is desperately trying to find a companion.
