Being back to the humdrum of the mundane life in Mumbai somehow restores the balance in my life: last weekend, I was living it up in Manila, without a care in the world. Few days later, here I am, back to my ritual of emails, phone calls, MS Office, not to mention cleaning, grocery shopping and selling old newspapers!
The fact that JB and PR spent almost the entire weekend at my place, cooking the most awesome chicken, while Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Pujara treated the country to graceful centuries, making my return to commonplace reality a little less disheartening.
But the fact remains that I am desperately restless, never quite satisfied, always looking out for change, wanting to do something different, craving for a fresh start, longing to turn my life upside down, for better or for worse…
More than any external circumstances, it’s my inner self which is at war with itself, trying to find that elusive piece of the jigsaw which would make the puzzle complete…
And I continue to play hide and seek with myself, I continue to look for the intangible pleasures of life and in the process, I continue to delude myself that someday, it’s going to find me…
Someday, the puzzle would make sense…

Puzzles always make sense, it just that onlooker need to see it from right point of view.
and that definitely does not happen if one is playing hide and seek with it.
Happy playing to you...!
Dr Phil would say that your search for the final piece of the puzzle is an existential and restless pursuit of that someone. But hey what do I know?
@makk
on that note, let the games continue
@neil
you are right. you know nothing!
A puzzle is not worth it if it makes sense.
@sb

Too confused, small brain be damned!
@SH
