Read On...(Cont..Part 2 )

“Beep Beep..Beep Beep..”, rang Jim’s phone…The sound interrupted his thoughts…He realized that an hour and a half had passed by since he came to the park…

He removed his phone from his pocket…There were 4 calls that he had missed and 2 messages that he hadn’t read…All from Emma…

‘Idiot…Whr r u??Lec started..’,said the first message..

‘Jim…Whr r u??Pick up my call…R u ok?’,said the second message..

He hit the reply button and wrote back…

‘I am fine..Tlk 2 u later’

Emma was confused, worried and irritated as she read the message….‘He says he is fine..Hmmm…Whatever!!’, she frowned…She had to give him his birthday gift, all his friends were waiting for him…But he had vanished…
Emma was terribly upset…

'As u wish..Am going home…Belated Happy Birthday 2 u!!', she replied!!

LONELY, ALONE OR LONER??

I read this interview of Shah Rukh Khan published in Mumbai Mirror, somewhere around the release date of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi...This question was the last one in the interview...I thought that SRK answered it really nice!!It goes like this...

"Question: How do you see the difference between lonely, alone, loner? Which defines you?"

"Shahrukh Khan : Lonely is nothing but a state of mind. You can feel lonely when you wish to, you can call upon lonely whenever you want to feel sorry for yourself. Lonely is your best friend who does not even need a phone call. It’s the fastest deliverable commodity as an emotion in the world. You can prolong the period, you can shorten it, and you can bring it back. Some people also use lonely as an artistic expression. I think it is really a tool of self pity with a nice word.I don’t know if it’s the right way to put it, some people by nature are aloof and listen to a different drum beat, they dance to a different music and they are happy. Loners are happy people. Lonely can be unhappy because you wish it to be. But loner is a guy who is not dancing to the music that you hear. So loner is nice, and when I want to intellectualise it, I can be an intellectual loner. I call it reclusive.
Alone is a good space. It is not lonely and it is not dancing to a tune. I think alone is something that you should utilise, as meditation, as self-analysis. I like being alone, a couple of hours a day or an hour a day. I do that in my bathroom. And not necessarily doing the things you do in a bathroom. My family knows about it, it’s a joke that Shah Rukh spends lot time in the bathroom. My bathroom is like a living room. My wife has made it like that. She says you are going to sit there hiding from all of us, then you might as well as well sit in a chair. I just relax and read a book. Sometimes I take a telephone, or a video game. I just sit down and I empty my mind which is also known in modern terms as unwinding. Alone is just to be. It is very important for some kind of a creative process also. Its also great to re-energise yourself. Alone is good, lonely is pathetic because it is self-inflicted, and loner is intellectual reclusiveness. Of these three I am mostly ‘alone’. And to turn a phrase around, ‘At the top it’s always like this, not lonely, just alone.’"

Hmmm...Now if I sit to think of it...Which category would i place myself??hmmm...I really don't know...!!:)...But its time that i sit 'ALONE' and find the answer..!!:D
