The Final Hour
'Eyes Scanning across.... its difficult..... But then you came here for nothing'. The man in spectacles thought.
'The last one was sad. It put me to sleep everytimes i took it up.' The Lady in the blue saree reasoned .
'How the hell could he stand here in between these dusty racks..but i love him...i have to be here or else he will be disappointed. 'The foriegn lady with bare minimum clothes looked back at her boy friend.
Just one hour left. And it will get closed for the day.
Just one more hour to choose the 2 books for coming 2 weeks.
Just one hour to decide whether it would make me wide awake or make me sleep as soon as i pick it up.
Just one hour to decide what somebody unknown has to say to me about someone in the coming 2 weeks.
Just one hour to decide the future that would sometimes make my strange smile come back on my lips when i flip the last page.
Life is never fair , isnt it ?

Life has to be bad sometime in order to feel the good things...

You are right in your observation but at times the bad phase runs so long that good time seem like a distant memory (at times even an illusion). It is in those times you start thinking that life is not good at all. And when like everything else, bad phase also ends, u realize that life isn’t so bad after all:)
Watsay?

Hmmm....for sec I thought you are saying about me, but tell you the truth ...the best thing about that kind of life is that you stop expecting. And once you stop expecting there is nothing called bad and good coming in your way ...it’s all the same. You just do things because you feel like doing.... you are not worried about the repercussions or being wrong.... you just move ahead. And that is a great feeling. You sense the true feeling of being independent.

There are two ways to reach that stage of no-expectations:
1. You understand that expectations lead to unnecessary burden n even disappointments at times
2. You have lost hope. You just don’t give a damn
What you are taking about is the 2nd case n that isn’t good. You loose your jest for life and now there is absolutely nothing that you hold dear or care for.

Bingo! You are smart...! Nice inference. But may I object please...
Hope being a quintessential necessity, there is no possible life afterwards.... so your 2nd point become invalid as the subject of that matter would possibly have passed away.
Coming to your first one.... you are correct. Though partially. You can also stop expecting if everything comes your way without any hiccups...and that is the worst of all.

I don’t agree to any of this Bakfire.
I have actually seen people without any hope for anything they do. they move without destination, they eat without bothering what they are eating. They are just not bothered and they have no hope of life. They are living because they are breathing and somehow they dont know how to stop that breathing... jaisa chal raha hai chalta rahe...I have actually met at least one such person. Even though it was like talking to a zombie, the guy was nevertheless breathing n living.
As for everything coming your way, well that in indeed the worst of all coz then your expectations go on an all time high. They are not mere expectations anymore. you take the expected result to be a natural obvious one..ye toh hona hi hai. You take it for granted without a slightest doubt of failure. Its indeed the worst of all coz in such a mind frame when you fall, most often den not, You are not able to rise again.

Well how to put it.... you got a nice way of analyzing things around. But Let me give you another ball to juggle with. What if the person you say is confused. He is having a hope but he is confused. Go thru a term called Quarter Life crisis. Sometimes in people it extends for long period. And that should not be taken for loosing hope. Because loosing hope is THE END.
About high expectation class.... you don’t fall, even after you try so hard. It’s like a curse, a devilish encroachment of your destiny to deny all twists. You rarely come across this .yes may be one day there is fall. But as i said in the beginning life has to be bad sometime in order to feel the good things... :)
