Comfortably numb

Maybe you hate history, but retracing your steps back to the beginning is something totally different. It's not always pleasant but still you take comfort in the assumption that thinks could've been worse.
A day spent re-reading old smses, playing back old recordings, hungrily taking in the content of old mails sticking onto each and every word as if you just received it... snapping back to reality, giggling and laughing while sighing at the same time, reframing old deals, extending expired promises... reliving the past, surviving the present and contemplating the future, all in one breath!
Next day... spending time together, lost in a crowd. Ironical? Isn't life one helluva big irony?
Day after that... another of the mock tests (have lost count of how many of those I've written till date:O) but no longer does the sitting affect my senses; I was actually laughing after the screwing! Losing grip.

How wonderfully lyrics can capture the essence of different situations. PF, for instance, in their song Coming back to life left nothing to be said:

Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life

Everyone everywhere is in some way suffering with, or at least affected by, this thing called love. No names here... you're free to generalize :p
And that's not all. People are influenced by other's moods, habits, behavior, etc.
When you think of it, there are so many things in this world to indulge in... there's no end to the list!
I've become incoherent, random, loquacious, and my posts resemble some moron's gospel (:D), is it?! Certain people are to be blamed for that, but I hardly have any doubts that they'd not register any complaints!

Luckily it has started to rain like crazy here. Getting wet almost daily in the downpour! Which reminds me I need to escape the showers today... See you all! Love ya guys heaps :D
