I have always been drawn towards someone who is enigmatic,
who carries the aura of mystery around them. What fun would it be if we know
everything about everyone? We are one strange species on earth who finds it
difficult to change or accede to any changes in our lives but also brevity
brings a restlessness to our lives.We want variety in everything.
That’s why a person claiming
to be an open book somehow brings a turn off in me. Have we ever wondered, the
ever quiet and composed mom was, once-upon-a time-tomboy? The stoic, head-on-shoulders, sensible
dad was, a yesteryear, hopeless romantic? The so called branded atheist sister
has some principles and ideals which will put a theist (wonder if a word
exists) to shame.The moody and arrogant friend has a soft side which they
felt shouldn't be disclosed. When we have a shocking revelations about our dear
ones it changes our entire perceptions on them. We would have considered them
boring and robotic. A great deal of respect will rise in our hearts. Suddenly
we have the urge to know more about the person.
Everyone who are silent and mysterious in their own way
buries a key to their heart which they allow only the right person to explore
and open it. The more and more enigmatic they are, closer they draw the dearies to them. Not to be scared about the
charm disappearing when we know something about someone, for the depth of one’s
soul is yet to be measured and one may not know what and how much is buried in there.
Happy exploring.
P.S: One may wonder the incoherence related to the tile and
the content.
Please don’t tell me your secret. Let me find it :-P
