120 Seconds....







People, oh god they will always be people. In the words they will create a heaven for you, so that you can rejoice in their mind's garden, and when it comes to actions, man they suck! When it comes to actual doing for you, even if its just a phone call or message, they hesitate. For what? Is it too much in this busy world to share a few words with someone with genuine interest? I think not.. So below is the post that I wrote 6 years ago on this subject, just personalized experience worth sharing on this Old dead blog of mine, for recapturing the essence..😄




How about bothering me? Calling me and asking me "How am I doing?" And about my health, my life, my schedules, my whereabouts, ANYTHING about ME. Just for 120 seconds?
  
The time then when we were connected, the threads of our hearts were tightly entwined. And the time that is now, we don't even know what's in each other's mind?


Lost touch. How is not important. We lost touch, that's that. Its awful. Not because of what we share now, but what we shared before.


You made me believe Promise is mere a word. You might demand that deep down you CARE. I want you to show me that. It's simple.


You might opine or excuse 'You have been busy' 'You didn't have access to me' 'You missed me'. I would say it's 2014. You can always find a way if its a priority to you.


Why get in touch? If not interested. Fine. But why get closer to heart? If not sure for future. Fine. But why leave a bad taste in someone's mind after taking them to heaven ? Not Fine.


120 seconds to say 'You're sorry' or 'You missed me' or 'Criticize me for not being in touch' 'Anything about our past times' Or reminding me that I'm not forgotten yet.


A fleeting conversation but straight from heart, having the finest quality. Having the power to change minds, change the decisions and most importantly a pleasant Surprise to heart.


120 seconds is not much time, if you really long to connect to your old friend. It would be the most productive time of your life, Even if all you say on phone is  Hello Jay!


Is it too much to ask for? Given we chatted for hours, met for months. And lest you think I'm being over-emotional. Because I'm not. I am a creature of logic, just not as rapid as you.



Do it if you feel like doing it. There has never been a compulsion and never it will be. It's matter of your choice, as it has been always. All I am asking for is 120 seconds. Just that much. There is no stopping, if I am 'Important' or so as you once said.
