THE IMPONDERABILIA OF EVERYDAY EXISTENCE

August 9, 2012

Meet and greet

I have always been one of those people who would do anything to change a negative opinion that someone may have of me. I have friends who wouldn’t give a damn but I do. I have and I thought I always would. Then one fine day maturity happened and I realized that try as much as I may it is impossible to please everyone all the time. And I seem to be doing better than expected at this now. You see I know a certain cluster who despise me beyond belief. The feelings are not exactly mutual at this end. I think the term indifferent is more appropriate for me. It is not that we haven’t tried to step forward for the occasional handshake but somehow the overall vibe remains negative. I don’t say I am right, or that I am wrong either. Maybe it is our upbringing or how we’ve been exposed to different experiences which ensure that our worlds can never meet. Today I met them and I couldn’t even get myself to greet the person in front of me. What is the point of playing a diplomatic game when both parties know how the other feels? I’ve accepted this relationship now. We were born to dislike each other. Somehow I think we are better off this way.
