You see this amazing movie. You feel. You’re not sure what exactly but you do.
You feel like writing again.
About?
About the woman you’ve been seeing for last three months?
About what you’ve been thinking all these days?
About what you see around you? And what you don’t?
And then. Snap. You come out of it.
May be I'll have another smoke.
What do I write about? It’s been long! Do I write about the fact that I’ve my Fridays free for next three months…but then, facts don’t interest the readers…emotions do…so, am I writing this for someone? Or is this just to check whether I can still write or not? Well, I have another question – is it good enough to just keep asking the questions or should one seek the answers too? And there I have my next question – what is good enough? Who decides it? If it’s me, then honestly, I don’t know coz it’s the same me in the first place who is asking the question. So, question is – if someone raises a question, can he answer it himself or is that a task meant for some other person? I guess, this one is simple enough…he can answer it himself too…but hey…what if we have two answers? Which one do you take as the right one? Now you can very well figure out the next question – what’s a right answer? Who ascertains the criteria, you, who had asked the question or the other person who has come up with an answer for you?
Ok…I agree it’s all subjective…so suppose if I randomly or by means of a weird algorithm make a choice…now I resolve the rest of my questions similarly…what if at some point I realize that something is wrong? Do I have the freedom to change my choice? Now if you say no, does that mean in case I’m pissed off with something in my life presently that’s because of some choice I made randomly (or through an algo) that I shouldn’t have made? I guess, that’s a fair conclusion! So voila…we have an answer!!! But then, what was the question…am I writing this for someone to read or just to pass time? No…or just to check if I can write anymore or not? By the way…why do people write? coz…
a) they have nothing else to do
b) they like playing with words
c) they have something to say which they want to express
d) they get paid for it!
Or all of the above???
