Strangers...

In this fast world, with massive population, have you ever wondered that apart from the people you know, rest of the world is a stranger to you!!!

We, throughout the day, consciously, or are forced to do a lot of things. And we are so self involved, that apart from making a pep descent conversation with the people we need, to go through that day's work, we keep this world a stranger to ourselves.
Lets experience something new everyday. And for once not be judgmental!!!! One gets out of home, travels to a destination, notices people around and judges them to the core of Jupiter!!!

WHY, I ASK???

Is it so difficult to keep an open mind about the strangers around you.... that girl standing next to the door of the train, that guy sitting with eyes closed and listening on his ipod??? Throughout the day, our eyes meet with uncountable strangers...we look, we notice, and then embarrassed when that person notices you noticing him/her, look in the other direction. Then starts the peeking!!! Now a new game starts... let me make this very clear, if between any two strangers, be it of the same sex or of the opposite, if the game of peeking has begun, that means a person is finding some quality of the other peculiar enough to give into the temptation of looking twice, thrice...and so on. That quality may range from feeling disgusted, to interested in what the other person is wearing, to curiosity, to attraction, to god knows what!!!!

NOW WHAT???

The reaction within ourselves, knowing the person is looking at you frequently, varies. You can get scandalized, curious to know why the other person is looking at you, happy about the fact that some guy (to a girl), or some girl (to a guy) (or in today's world it may be the other way round, personal choice!!!) is looking at you............ And lets not deny that not one person doesnt do it... Its a world, We are humans and we want to look at other humans!!! Its nature!!!

And this game continues throughout the day, non stop, only the participants change!!!

Now we can sit on our asses at the end of every game and let a stranger be a stranger or act according to our desires and do something about it. Of course, everybody has witnessed the sitting on our asses feeling a lot of times i m sure.... the other person goes, and you wonder.... sometimes you are happy...some times you are relieved....and sometimes you are disappointed and sad... so playing the peeking game with strangers make us emote and get in touch with our inner self, throughout the day....very healthy!!!!

Now lets consider the other possibility... suppose you want take the game from the level of peeking to speaking and you do act accordingly....this opens a whole new window of experiences.... you will experience different things happening to you...the other persons reaction(unlimited range), your nervousness......... But one thing is for sure, it will be a lot of fun. Very Very healthy!!!

So lets make an effort, of making some new acquaintances, of spicing up ours and others life, of experiencing and you will find that so much goodness lies in this otherwise boring, hatred filled, robotic world!!!
