Thoughts of the Worm

It's been nearly 3 years our friendship came to an end, but believe me, I still remember those moments we spent playing pranks on others, sharing our worries and doubts, calling up each other by names and talking on the phone for hours together and ya also the 'chalk-fight' in college. But you see, 'Green-eyed' monsters are always lurking around. Scared with the thought that some people would bring an end to our friendship, I took some drastic steps which led to a lot of misunderstanding between us, to which you reacted in a shocking manner.

Why do we forget ourselves and dance to the tune of the universe. Why is it that we desperately crave to go ahead of time and once we are there, we long to go back to our past? Though I've never understood life's concepts, I assume, the reason is all because we are humans and so we follow the norm of being unsatisfied with what we have. We dream of living a luxurious life; a life where we want happiness, a life where we can only smile. In an attempt to achieve this 'all' we drain ourselves so much to the core that we finally end up realizing we haven't lived our lives at all. Responsibilities and Expectations weigh us down and we tend to become hackneyed. We try to smile through everything. Now for a change, as they say, Life is not a Bed of Roses, let's be practical and accept the fact; Lif...
