Life as Lollipop- Part 2

'I love to cry in the rain so that no one can see my tears' - Charlie Chaplin

With a heavy and dismal heart, I pen down the final part. Lot of people have expressed their feelings about part1. Mixed reactions of readers- Too realistic; Boring, Philosophical. Yet some of them told me that they were desperately waiting for second part. I respect the feedback from these individuals who come from all walks of life.

However, thats what precisely is my conviction. Being adamant, I write whatever I feel like, say, talk or think whatever I feel I should. Call it being courageous or going against conviction. In life, courage and conviction are two different entities and give a very unusual way of interpretation. Very uncommon sight, just like a fully clothed Pamela Anderson!

Like I have said, we all are born in this world for a purpose, when the purpose is achieved, we leave heavenly abode. period. I often think of people who are no longer a part of this world and ask myself, what are these guys doing wherever they are? watching us from heaven? Its idiotic to think on these lines, but exciting too!


This may give you a sign of relief or an expression of dismay about the fact that I am not going to write anything more about this Life. The hard candy of the lollipop is the life and gets over post sucking and licking. Only the stick which had the candy mounted on it remains. Thats our life!


Take a look at your life now and then. Your childhood: The day when you peed in your nappies( if you remember that). The day when you knew nothing about money, sex and power. Times when you watched Doordarshan and waited for Chitrahaar or one movie a week( Sunday or Saturday)

Your present: Bombarded with technology, too many channels to choose from. Too busy to laugh-smile over little things of life! Thinking about the next that that you will do after reading this article or worried about a stupid meeting at office. The list goes on. Of course some of you may be thinking "why the fuck did we grew up?"

Before I rest my essay I leave some questions for the reader to ponder. Pause for a moment, think about YOURSELF.Your name and your breath,Your mind and then read on:

Who are you?
What makes you to live?
Why are you scared about death( most of us)?
Ever realized how you will be 10 years from now? ( No, this is not a HR question)

Think! It helps!

Have a great Life ahead!
