first vs. second
I guess its easy for one to go through a second loss... when they have already faced the first big one. Probably, one knows all the stages, symptoms and results that come as a package.
Second time around.. Even if one chooses the loss, they are familiar with the process and how it works..i guess. In a way, that should be a good thing, i think. Will it really help you handle it better ??

further away..
the feelings of indifference
kept the world far away.
Now, little steps closer
to what was once my world.
i realise
everything n' everyone,
is further away..

Silent-joyous-bounce
To my amazement, even through the many months..... A sudden stumble upon a word, still sends echo's into the mind and lingers on with a silent - joyous - bounce ! I pass a sigh coz the words can't be shouted out, as its hidden deep within the silence..
Nothing much to do, but add some more silence to the silence..

What are Memories ? - by Sarada Prasad
I recently chanced upon a blog by CSP, as she had left a comment on another blog of mine. Loved a few words she had typed in there. Its so well written. Hope she doesn't mind me tagging it here. http://sharadaprasad.blogspot.com/
WHAT ARE MEMORIES ?
A very scientific way of defining memory would be - a network of neurons wired in a specific manner to generate the same kind of feeling (may be a very abstract way to relive the moment) that is recorded in the brain. Wikipedia defines memory as the ability of the brain to store, retain, and subsequently recall information.
It may be anything - but for us - life is not only living the current moment but relishing and savouring all the good times you had previously. Few people live their life in past - they relive their memories. They sit at one place - but their brain takes them to all those places, takes near all those people (to a different realm)
Certain incidents and few people get wired to such an extent that those memories become indelible. Memories are like doubled edged razors. We not only remember good things but also certain bad incidents. Memories are capable of inflicting same amount of pain or equal amount of happiness.
Worst part of the memories is - Harder you try to forget someone - deeper will be the impression created - her presence becomes more vivid. Weird is the concept of memories - so is the concept of life.
Learn to live with memories. Don't try hard to remember someone or forget others. Our brain is wired - you cannot help much. But our thought process might be controlled. We can get engaged in different activities - we should keep our brain distracted - then it can, momentarily atleast, rewire and you will be reprieved. When all contrived thoughts ebb and when the brain returns to its normal state - there - at the bottom of the ocean of your memories - you will see those faces again. They just remind you the fact that even time cannot erode certain things in life - some impressions are permanent.
