Catharsis

If I could do anything in the world..

If I could do anything in the world, the first thing I�d do would be to leave it. Then perhaps I would buy myself a huge chocolate fudge sundae, crawl into bed with a book, switch on TV and do absolutely nothing.

On the other hand I could be an optimistic fighter- looking for meaning everywhere, contributing to the world and generally going through life believing that my existence mattered.

And having done both at one point of time or the other, I wish there were a third, more exciting alternative.

There is a crisis of love and companionship. It�s easy to understand why people fall out of love- and that too for no apparent reason. A boredom that grips and a quest for excitement that leads one asunder. The need to know and fall in love with someone new, someone different and someone who holds a promise and a mystery. The joy of discovering. And after the sex has lost its novelty, nothing remains � maybe just a guilt of having been immoral - premarital sex with someone with whom you�ve fallen out of love. And of course one shall no longer dream about the �one true love� coz one has grown up and one has had one �true love� too many. So that�s another avenue of hope and reason closed.

Take refuge in comedy.
