Dated:12.08.2005

Today I had an amazing conversation with my friend.So you(my diary) are supposed to listen to it all , before I call it a day.........Sindhu(name changed) and I were enjoying the day at the college as we usually do......as always we didnt have any idea of listening to the lecture,so with our own way of whiling away the time ,started with a topic.As usual it was about the glamour industry!But what was new was the way the topic took a turn.We were generally discussing heroines and beauty,when my friend made an impeccable comment "This beauty doesnt't last long suma".We all know this fact but never take time to understand it I thought.When I abruptly replied "But it speaks a lot about you in today's scenario".The reply was especially meant to develop the conversation,I wanted to know her view and on top enjoy the fruit of not listening to the lecture.And as expected Sindhu continued "Why the hell would somebody look at your skin which will sag with age".I continued my argument "Then why is the cosmetic industry having a boom like never before".With her deadly smile she made a clear point telling it was not the mistake of the business but the customers,we all want to look like ash and he makes money out of our lust.I defended her saying that "If you don't look good nobody respects you dear.So atleast if we were not born looking good,we could mend it with these cosmetics".With her never ending deadly smile she continued,"To tell the fact nobody can change the God gifted color and features dear.And even if you try and succeed it will not last long.And on top of it they might only risk your skin's pattern.There is no meaning in fighting the fact that we were born with a set of features.If you want to become a doctor you got to have a good memory power,a researcher then you should love experimenting and the same if you want to become an actor you got have good looks.Its just another profession Suma.Everyone is gifted with a set of assets and we got groom our own best asset to succeed.There is no use sitting all day and praying that I become gorgeous all of sudden when you got better jobs to do.And wasteing money and time on it.When we start acting according to other's view forgetting what makes us happy, at that moment we die.We should first understand what makes us happy.Just because somebody makes a bad comment on your looks you cannot spend your life wasting all your resources mending it.And this might only increase the feeling of "we not being we".If you got few extra pounds added to your weight,no problem that is how you are.You sit and diet like crazy,then finally you'll lose your happiness of being yourself,missing your lovely and yummy food.So we need to do what makes us happy Suma,not what makes us sad!"before she wanted to continue I interrupted her"So you dont like being complimented as Ms.perfect!wierd!actually we all know the fact that when somebody compliments us that we look good,happiness grows like a tree.So why fight the truth Sindhu?"Sindhu replied keeping her smile intact "See the happiness that you think is happiness is just a extension of your emotions for a moment.If you have a feeling that happiness comes when people compliment you,then you will die being happy at occasions.That happiness tree is one without roots that would fall down with the first rain.If you know that happiness is your extended emotion always,then you would be happy for what you are and not how you are.That would be the perfect,strong tree that would keep growing with the rains , bigger and bigger after every shower.Your attitude makes you happy not your amplitude.So if you really want to be happy run behind your passion,have the warmth nature of accepting people for what they are(character)and not how the are(looks).Because we all know that - with age we wrinkle and with time we learn".I liked her ideas,they were this perfect ten on ten thoughts for people who looked bad but I still had doubts ,wasn't looking good all about being liked at the first impression.Sometimes there have been harsh days where we would have lost the race just because we didnt have that superb look.But my mind responded to my thoughts," losing that race would be better than winning" at the end of the day you are what you love to be,that is YOURSELF.Before I could talk more, mam called out Sindhu to stand up knowing that we were busy chit-chatting.I couldn't avoid but smile.Sindhu at her new posture reminded me"Your smile is cute especially because of the fact that you made me talk and stand too!Ms.Selfish cute smiley.........Suma"These words are making me laugh again.With this smile I would call it a day.
