"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" asks Neo.
"I'm thinking this elevator is too damn slow," replies Trinity.
But before long they are interrupted by the elevator doors opening and are recieved by a crowd of people. They carry offerings, asking Neo to look over their sick children etc. Neo thanks them for their gifts and and says he'll try.
Trinity lowers her head in dissappointment and starts to walk away.
Neo asks her not to go, but Trinity answers, "It's okey. They need you."
"I need you," he pleads.
"I know, there's time," she assures him and walks away.
Was it right for Trinity to get dissappointed?
Was she correct in being understanding that, at that moment, others needed Neo more than her and she should move on to do stuff she wants?
Should she have stayed and remained a spectator... watching him work coz he would feel a lot better with her around?
Is it considered to be expecting "too much" when one seeks undivided attention?
When someone seems to need your presence, but you have nothing to do except be physically present there ... is it wrong...... to walk away???
Seize the day, be aware that every moment in this lifetime makes a difference...

It wasn't, for me......
R U Free now? When u get time call me. I need 2 talk to you about something personal.
If someone thought this was funny and cute... Then let me get loud and clear.. IT WAS NOT.
Coz when i received this sms from a dear friend... i tried to put some time aside and call back a couple of times.. get asked, hey whats happend, why are you trying to call me.... and bluntly informed that i had to scroll to the end of this SMS FORWARD and read......
"Arabian sea is 4 Sale
Shall we both BUY it?"
So did i waste my time... - "Yes, absolutely", i was told
Now i guess i am supposed to laugh it off.... but honestly i didnt find it funny...
Coz i totally agree with someone who said that "It is a sin to waste someone else's time..."
When i read the first line of the sms... i took THE effort to be there for my friend... why should i consider it an effort, when i so proudly claim to myself that one of goals i am tying to reach is effortlessness... The other person should not even get a hint of the efforts and troubles i take to be there for them , to make their moments with me memorable and worthwhile... it shouldnt be a "burden", a "task" or an "attempt" to try and make them like me, please me or be nice, becoz i am nice... I want it to be so a part of me, like my second skin... it should never hurt like it did once, i should not feel i wasted my time on something that didnt deserve the attention i gave... I wanna be unconditional, but please dont make me "waste" it for no reason.. i am putting in a certain amout of thoughtful effort in trying to be what i wanna be..... To be blind even when i see, coz ideally it shouldnt matter.... and to focus my capabilties, where there is a need.... So for heaven's sake, dont take me and my time for granted.... You can use it, dont abuse it.....
In the recent past , i have realised the power of humour and wit.. coz i have seen it work amazingly than anything else. atleast in my life.... Humour even saved me from trying to kill myself once.. coz even when the vey thought entered my mind.. i laughed it off.. and thats WHY i THINK i am alive right now.....
So why am i angry..... the point being.. it would have been effortless when there was a purpose.. i dont mind giving all that i can, when i understand the reason.. or atleast i even if my friend told me that they missed me and wanted some attention and time from me.. i can so understand that feeling too....
But here there seemed to be no reason or feeling... jus a forward... or should i call it backward...
I dont want to tolerate it anymore.... i dont wanna be indifferent to this waste of time...
Its MY time.. aint i already wasting it enough.. that you too are trying to waste it now.....
I didnt have a hundred things in life to accomplish in the few moments that i spent on my friend... But when you are slapped with the fact that someone just wasted your time, for no particular reason, it isnt fair....
Maybe you dont think so.. Big deal, you say.... Woman, couldnt you jus scroll down, instead of crying out loud for a forward...
I didnt, my mistake.... i should have seen that this msg is from YOU and therefore ignored it... or i should be SENSIBLE enough to always scroll below even when you ask me to give you a call...
You say, it was funny...
Well honey, it wasn't, for me.....

Looking good...
Feel good about yourself. When you feel good, you look good. People are attracted to and feel comfortable with people who respect themselves. Liking yourself and respecting yourself doesn't mean you are conceited, it just shows others that you care about your body. A fun, light personality makes everyone comfortable. Be yourself, be warm to others, and feel great. Soon enough, others are bound to notice.

Dear void....
Kathleen Kathy (Movie : You've got mail) - Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So good night, dear void.
