Until a
couple of months back, i was a happy man, content with myself and my
indulgences. Life was a piece of cake that I was eating happily and
lazily. 
But this was until I was forced to look beyond myself and some jealous types creatures 
who
started filling my mind with words of worldly desires, pointing out the
meaningless of my life and challenging my notion of individuality and
upright existence (like living alone and for myself was a sin 
...surely
these guys deserved a copy of Ayn Rand's Fountainhead. I however doubt
it would have made any difference to the deep rooted notion of social
existence...). In other words, you can understand that i was hardly
convinced by their logic and their endeavors had little effect on me:

The
change of status of friends on Facebook, their happy faces on their
reception/wedding ceremonies, the effervescent smile on the honeymoon
pictures used to amuse me to no end (Yes Mt Einstein...man's stupidity
has indeed no limit).
But then
she came in my life, suddenly and unexpectedly. She was a formidable
opponent but I too was a valiant knight. I was confident that my weapons
of logic, laid-backness and my mastery on human psychology (oh
ye..) are more than a match for her. And I’ll make her bite the dust in
time less than what Rohit Sharma takes to return to pavilion. 
Now, when
I look back, I think this confidence cost me dearly. Guys, I was
defeated and was made to surrender. It was a bloody and treacherous
battle and - if it gives some consolation to my friends- I had fought
bravely. 
Today, I am defeated and fallen. Strangely though, I don't look for resurrection. I am happier.
