The Meet

Life is like a movie. Most of the time, the story gets recycled. Its premise is based on the same old idea with some twists here and there. Good vs. evil. Boy meets girl, boy fall in love, some trouble came along the way and a happy ending to wrap up the entire story. Sounds familiar doesn't it?

Metaphorically, I always feel that my life is running on sequels. The same old premise about a girl wondering about life. That is why I had stopped blogging sometime back. Perhaps, I felt that it was no longer interesting to talk about the four letter word, (that is L.I.F.E, mind you; what were you thinking of??)

However, recent incidents has spurred me to blog about this topic again. There are a handful of people that carry a heavy influence in my life. Be it people whom I know from the past or present, these individuals are like 'setpieces' in a movie which form a sequence of scenes for a highpoint in a film. They outlined certain dramatic moments in my life. One of this 'setpiece' species entered my life recently, for reasons that can be rooted from collective actions of his as well as mine which eventually led up to a chance of meeting up with him.

Time has played its part in shaping who we are today. Transgression from our actions has lead to this meet. The person whom I mentally have in my mind might be different from this person, but I'm sure that the similarities will definitely ring a bell or two. Admittedly, I was more at ease talking to him on phone while both of us seem to have some apprehension or the other about our meeting. I knew almost immediately that we see life from different perspectives. But then there were too many revelations, too much criteria, too many evaluations, too much speculation. In the end, I realised that my opinion about him didn't change even by a bit from the time I knew his existence.

I hope, the meet will be more of an educational process for me than igniting flames ;) Some of the questions that have been looming in my mind need to be resolved. In every way, I will be personally glad to see him. Our paths have crossed for a reason. The real big question is where do we go from here?
