i saw a picture of myself today. smiling. looking happy. really happy. strange thing is that i cant remember someone actully taking that picture or even being in it. compounding this sense of disjunture is the fact that i cant seem to recognise myself there. i looked at the girl in the image and asked myself "is this really me?" why does this happen? im sure im not the first peson to think like this. i guess i wont be the last either. but a strange feeling nonetheless. it was a happy day. a very happy day. i miss you, happy me. i miss that smile. like i said, right now all i can do is deal in somedays and somewheres. someday i will meet that smile again. i will see that girl again. i wont need to be reminded to say hello.

Certain Pictures, whether consciously or unconsciously, are blocked out by Us at Times. Life is like a Movie - a compilation of innumerable still photographs. Not all of them need to have distinct and definite meanings. All of them need not be interpreted or torn apart. What matters are photo albums - and how they are kept and preserved. For mostly it so happens that We come across one such photo album accidentally, and then keep turning the pages - trying to relive the past. But what is it that makes You miss Your Happy self? Is it just Your temporary stay at an alien land, or something else...something which Love and Life are locking and blocking out...
