We are weirdly created...
When we know some things aren't supposed to work, we still expect.. Its insane!!

Hope that it would all be like before...Unfortunately not!!!!

Encounters...

Its amazing how our daily encounters with different people can teach us so much!!

This pleasant Sunday morning after a bad bad crazy night hangover, I headed towards my pre fixed Spa session to this upmarket, urban place in Indiranagar! As usual I was embarrassed to strip in front of the masseuse. But then after so many Spa sessions, I think one gets so used to it, hardly matters...

Anyway, I am quite particular about the hygiene of my masseuse, so I met her prior. To my surprise there was this 15- 16 year looking fair, pretty girl waiting for me in the room.. I couldn't stop myself from asking her age.. She said 20! N then she began the chore and trust me she was good man she was!

She sort of opened up to me after our initial hello's and began talking ! Asking me about my life, age, etc..I usually like the silence during my spa sessions with the low music in the bg. But this time around I did not mind her talking to me. Probably because I was amused by her innocence. She was so naive!

She was from Coorg and her parents had sent her to Blore to earn money! She told me if I knew any coorgi! On affirming my acquaintanceship with Coorgi's, she popped like, don't marry them , all Coorgi boys are bad people. They cheat. N then she went on to tell her story with a guy she liked and how he molested her. Forced her to have sex.. How he lived off the mere 6k she earns..

However, what intrigued me was not just this but the things she told me post that..

She said, But now I am happy.. I am getting married in 2 months to a guy who lives in Bangalore. They are very nice people. He calls my mother regularly. The other day he got me a rose and teddy bear keychain. I am so lucky. He is rich also. He has a bike and house. His family is also very nice. They will allow me to wear Salwar Kameez.

She went on to say, What else does a girl need, a house, a loving husband who can take care of her, protect her from other bastard men like that other guy (However, the guy she is marrying is also a Coorgi). He also says until a baby I can work. and she went on....


There I was telling myself, how I complicate my life!! This girl 20 years old has no priorities and expectations!And is so happy with the little she is getting... N here I sit, greying my hair at 24 thinking of earning more, doing better at work, investing in a house, buying a car, a wine cabinet, International Holiday, new furniture, new phone, playstation!!! My list wouldn't end.. 

Time to uncomplicate things and enjoy those little joys of life each day!
