i want to aplogise to myself for the asphyiating scorn I have reserved for myself for so long. how was it born and why did i nurse it?
random moments unravel threads of a silent wound. no one understands, least of all me myself. no one wants to understand the bitterness of curdled thoughts, of rancid longings.
going through old notebooks i realise i have sinned against myself.
still, i am happy to be me. perhaps loneliness is not about being alone. it is the abyss you fall into when you abandon yourself.

The last two lines say it all Gulnaz - and if we're lucky or smart enough we find this out early in life...
i like to understand the bitterness of curdled thoughts..
'i'm happy to be me' -- its the most satisfying feeling despite all sins, apologies...I share your sentiments...didn't we see a 'kindred soul' in each other before too...
short, but nice afterthought. Reassuring message Gulnaz!

Hi,
We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.
Cheers,
Salil

Hope you would come.
Ignorance is in fact innocence. I think the best we can do is look at ourselves in the mirror and grin sheepishly and say, "doh."
