chewing gum OR lollipop



long time huh.....
it is just another blog entry that's being written after a lot of soul searching and reflection of about 1 months of living in oblivion.
So my question is....what would you rather choose -
"A Love Marriage" or "An Arrange Marriage"
I know i would get a number of really varied answers to that. But i have a rather hilarious but meaningful metaphor for these two institutions or rather i would say school of thoughts.

"Lollipop"
A love marriage is like a lollipop where we can keep enjoying the juicy taste slowly. Cherish the way it melts on your tongue. You can celebrate each day with a new lot of "having fun". Its when your love lasts, grows and expands over the time. and the lollipop tastes so damn good until the end....the end of life. You have the assurance that it would always taste the same no matter what...whether you eat it or throw it. i know some lollipops...i mean love marriages end up badly or never last, but thats just because we loose interest in the flavor after some time...or may be we choose the wrong one and realize later.

"Chewing Gum"
An Arrange Marriage is like a chewing gum where after sometime, after some chewing, you loose the juice, the tenderness and the fresh flavor.It just becomes a plane rubber to keep chewing on till you need to....or else if you are over with it, you cant wait to get it out of your mouth.No matter how carefully you choose the flavor, its always, ultimately the rubber that stretches till the end.

I am not categorizing anything, i have seen amazing exceptions on both the sides right in my own family.and so i would also point out that....there is always a very probable possibility that your lollipop might have a chewing gum at the core.
And you know you can have a lot of fun with chewing gum too, i prefer blowing a lots of noisy bubbles out of chewing gums. and though some chewing gums might loose the juice but the tenderness is there....the freshness is there.
i don't intend to give any good/bad label to both the thoughts....but i guess the metaphors are quite close to what i think about them....neither am i in opposition of chewing gums or in favor of lollipops...
i just want you (the one who is reading this) to choose your flavor...your type (chewy or lolli)and your life thoughtfully.

P.S. - just another amusingly boring reflection of my stupid brain....enjoy if you can....i don't promise any regularity here....again it has take n a lot of effort to get this out on paper....so i just avoid it nowadays....please don't get mad at me...just read and forget it ;) by the way living in oblivion is my ground state now....[;)]

seeya later alligator :)
