"know what... I like you"
"hmmm.. but why?"
"hmmm.. well , plainly because you listen to me"
Isn't that what is meant to be done?- listen to someone when they talk? Isnt that why we have the so called 'best' tags attached to a few friends? Because they listen to when we need it the most.. it? silence to rant off our woes and then a huge hug? Isnt that why they have the saying ' marry someone you love talking to, because when you grow old you'll need that the most' ... hmmm , somehow this is the most difficult thing that one sees as a 'deliverable!'... Let me explain..
See ever since childhood i have thought that you know ur best friend is truly one when , you are bursting with rantings and all you want is someone who'd hear you out.. someone who'd listen to every word of what you say and then hug you at the end of it and say ' dont worry you will fing your way'.. that is why Sheetu is my best friend and i am hers... Yes, I am being immodest in saying that i am her best friend because ( GRUMBLERS PLEASE READ CAREFULLY) I may not be there when she is the happiest or or she is on cloud nine, but i know i am there for her when that tear is about to roll down her cheeks.. i have learnt that from her...
Well, coming back to the point... why do fights happen? because we don't listen to the other .. never... no matter how many times we swear by the Heaven up above , we dont listen.... If you do know someone who does listen then please give him/her a hug from me because they are making your day beautiful... you have someone who loves your voice or just you :) ... I guess that is why i am kinda not so lucky cos i dont know someone ( other than sheetu) who just listens... they HAVE to drop their pearls of wisdom right when i am blowing my nose over a worry... hmmm.. happens..
What i am talking about is a very Euthopian world .. i know it is close to impractical but where does the harm lie in trying? Would you rather try listening to losing a loved one?

ReplyDeletehmm., for some reason I prefer the category that gives me a third person opinion on the issue. I have seen that such opinions help me a lot of times. And, people whose opinions are honest, are the ones who i rely on.
ReplyDeleteI guess it works different for everyone.
