First impressions… say nothing. Not even second impressions. As you delve into different universes you unravel many more stars, asteroids, baby universes forming and outright destroying black holes in each of those universes. Guided by some rules (don’t know who formed them) you form opinions about everything in life. You see the world in black, white, whitish gray, blackish gray or simply gray. You do your calculations and come to decisions on this color coding and just as you are happily sailing through it all, your doctor tells you “you are colorblind!” .May be all this while you were looking at the negatives instead of the positives of the film. Perceptions change… Change is what drives our lives. And this perplexity of not being able to see the right from the wrong, the not-so-right from the not-so-wrong leads to the ever-prevailing state of “Confusion Suprême”. Certainty is an endangered species these days. Anchors have long been obsolete. No doubt that the human mind has evolved so highly so as to tackle the entanglement. But what about fellow mortals who still have many knots in their lives…
What about those marooned shipmen who still swim in the whirlpools of confusion… May be they just live with their beloved Confusion like you do with a stray cockroach in your kitchen…

Join TCS, There motto is "Experience Certainty".
Waise Einstein was pretty annoyed when he came to knew there is no certainty in the world. "god doesnt play dice".
Jokes apart, moments define life, nothings certain.
hey...i beg to differ on ur last words in tht comment. In relationships...certainty is coveted, and in this context i say, its a rarity. anyways thanks for ur comment.
Beautifully written..you are turning out to be quite a philosopher..do i see a lady Paulo Coelho in the making?
Btw , i think uncertainty is what makes our lives bearable..if everyhting was certain we would live the life of a cow.I get paranoid with the idea of stability, ny motto is "if the waters are still i will rock my own boat!"
