I realised very long back, in this short life of mine, that each day.. with every passing moment, each of us learns something new. That is, learns of a new face that people can have. Learns of another level people can drop down to.
'Just when I'd thought, that I'd seen enough to last me till my 18th birthday, which is just about a month away, I get a surprise ; an early christmas gift. To some, calling it a gift might be an understatement ,though. To me, it's the understatement of the century.
Words mean everything. Words mean nothing. I have always wondered how to figure out when a person means what he says and how to know when he doesn't. And then I realised that it really doesn't matter. Because words mean nothing. They are just words. But, then I ask myself, what does? What does mean something? Words can be said in the heat of the moment, they can be carefully planned... but so can actions. So, then where does the truth really lie? Is there a truth?
On one day I hear you say "I hate you" to a person and in less than a month I'll find you and that much-hated friends out on a shopping spree together. On another I hear you tell me that you care for her, and that you'll never leave her side. A few months late I see you telling me the same about another girl. I think to myself, it's OK. People change, it's the way the world goes around. I hear you laugh and I hear you cry. I hear the sighs and I hear the joy. I learn of what emotions are. I learn of how strong they are. I learn. I learn about loving and getting angry. All from you. And then, one day, I also hear you confiding in me that you're blackmailing this girl you supposedly cared for, not so long back.
First, I think, it's one of those emotional things. You know, meet-me-or-i'll-know-you-don't-love-me types. 'Sounded so romantic. Words mean so much. I learn.
And then you tell me.. it's not what I think it is. Words mean nothing. I learn.
I think to myself for a while. I've never heard of this before. It's all new. I've just read of such a word. I checked the dictionary to be sure.
.... how?? Why? I understand that you can hate a person and then fall in love with the very same person a few days/months/years down the line. I understand that people do stop caring for eachother. I understand that people become indifferent. I however, do not understand how you can blackmail a person you not only happened to like but love,care for and adore.
So, you see... I've learnt a new lesson. You taught me. I've seen people crave to hear three simple words, "I love you"... they tell me, those three words can make everything right. They are the most powerful words on this planet. Because when you tell a person you love them, in whatever context, on a very basic level, they tell the other person that you care for them and that you will always be there for them, that's what people tell me. Words mean everything.
Words mean nothing. Nobody says things they mean. Nobody says things that are supposed to mean anything. It's all bullshit. In the end, you just get blackmailed.
Words mean everything. Words mean nothing.
real personal i see.

honey,
remember you'd talked to me bout something similar in my blog?

hmm,
Preetika, there is something I too realised about words.
To keep it short. Let me tell you in a few words.
"Words are constants, Its the people who are variables"
Words mean the same. But men who use it don't.
