Some Daily dialogues we hear

A very interesting aspect of human life is relationship. Now I am not talking about a man and woman only. Neither am I limiting it to any social context.

For instance the relation between the check out clerk and the grumpy old woman or grumpy conductor and equally grumpy passenger.

A simple thing like smile has disappeared from human life. This has a direct impact on relations. Now some may call it as daily interaction but I call it relation.

The old man at the newsstand, the pretty girl at the coffee shop, senior citizen volunteering at road crossing, the cab driver and many other people around you in your daily life has one thing in common. They have a smile. That is the reason one does not feel any awkwardness about them. They are almost transparent to us. We simply assume that they are there, always, with that smile, never realizing that one needs to reciprocate it.

Today will write some typical conversation that takes place in our lives almost everyday. Definitely it has happened once in all of our lives.

“Good morning Hemant”
“Good morning Jane”
“How are you today?” and Jane walks on without waiting for the answer.
“I am not too well, thanks for asking and I will fine soon” but this genuine answer was not heard.

“Darling, tell me honestly how do I look in this dress?” Claire asked.
“That dress suites you well dear.” Bob replies honestly.
“No I think it’s too tight” Claire says.
“Well then why ask me?’ Bob thinks.

“Sweetheart, do you love me?” Brenda
“What’s the purpose of this question?” Timothy
Doh! Can’t you simply say Yes or No?

“Oh man I don’t know if she is happy with me or not?” Jack
“Did you ever ask her?” Hemant
“Ask what?” Jack
Idiot! What do you mean by ask what?

“Moonlight, walking hands in hand on the beach, cool breeze, twinkling skies, oooh So romantic” Priya
“Damn these mosquitoes are killing and all that sand in my feet. Romantic my foot.” mental comments, Mahesh.
Hey come on Mahesh, you said “up to you sweetie” when it was decision time to select venue.

Don’t know why I am writing the above. Maybe because I am sick and tired of hearing this meaningless words everyday. With so much of meaningless conversation, do you think we can ever have relationship?
