I can't live without I
Dont start correcting my language...The second "I" is intentional...
Having said so let me share how this great idea of writing this piece came to my mind... [Some clarification, its not one of those typical self bragging things you think it is… I have no such high thoughts / notion bout myself…]
This thought process was triggered by a comment (testimonial written for me by my very good friend – Melwyn)… He wrote that the middle initial of this person (me) is a BIG "I"…. I thought over it, and found that’s very true… I myself say that I can leave without everything but not ME…
Don’t start cursing me (in which ever language you are doing right now). I still assure its not self bragging article…
Don’t answer it, but ask yourself - what is it without which you cant live (something similar to Dil Chahta Hai scene where in you can close your eyes while thinking if you wish, and see which is the first person coming in front of you – hey I aint kidding it works, try it out man !!!)…
For all those who said / thought anything besides I or ME, I have a suggestion – dude, be practical and less philosophical… Tomorrow, if which ever person you saw, no longer exists (am extremely sorry for being so blunt, but accept the fact, life moves on), you will still live…
Ok, this philosophy has a backing… After seen the best of lovers, and the worst of enemies (these are the only two cases when u real strongly think bout someone), surviving the perishing (not dyeing but just not being there yaar)… of the other one, I feel and can say that the theory works…
So when someone says (like a lover, son/daughter, friend, or enemy too) that you are the most important thing in my life and I cant live without you, I will suggest don’t start filling in gas with pride... with all probability, tomorrow if you are no more (arre baba, I am not killing you)… the life will still continue and that person would still have some good moments in life… Yeah we do miss people, anyone in fact whom we come close to… and probably that’s what makes us different from animals (they are far superior in communication then us, which I will try to pen down in another blog sometime). But that missing someone doesn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves…
At this point if time, there are at least half of you who would like to hit me with what ever object u get hands on…. So let me make it soften it slightly… getting close to people is very good thing, giving them everything is even better… but what I understand is to accept the continuity of life… coz that’s the reason why the nature is what it is… it wants us to accept its mighty and surrender to it humbly… it wants us to love our surroundings (people included) but realize the person’s importance… you have an independent existence… you are a complete identity… the moment you try to associate / depend yourself on others, your identity starts getting diluted…
Well, that’s my views, am strong in them, as you would say, coz for me - I can't leave without I...

I quite agree with you and find the closing lines the best of the piece .. "you have an independent existence… you are a complete identity… the moment you try to associate / depend yourself on others, your identity starts getting diluted"
It's important to realize this esp. when it's likely to get carried away in a very intimate relationship. To keep things interesting for a longer time, it's best for the individuals to keep their independent identity!
All of your articles are nice and i would really love reading them again and again but if you try to change yourself for someone or or you feel you cant live with out it , its all because of love that you feel for that person. No one can be a 100% practical person after all we are human beings and we have emotions .... kabhi na kabhi kahi na kahi you will get emotional.
