I feel at times we don’t love to explore opportunities. Most of us live in the Blind Arena, when there is a sudden flash we end up getting reversed or we completely open up. The fact is that we need to remove complexities in life and enjoy the life as it is very precious and we get very few moments to spend too.

Its not too bad an experience for two people to catch up. The conversation can be steered in and out of nostalgia and old-days.
When a bunch of people get together….that’s when its painful! Then we talk of nothing except ‘remember that day when…’
