Getting to know people is like reading literature. It’s not the obvious that matters but subtle, hidden or even buried stuff.

Hmm...but why ?

Buried stuff dont matter..

If someone is choosing to bury it , that means he/she is trying to forget..

Why should it matter ?

Can we just bury things? Sometimes we think that we have buried it all. Then we feel at times the buried things come to the fore. It’s a probability that’s why I said ‘even buried stuff’. Thanks a lot for dropping by.

I have noticed that only when we start looking at ourselves do we begin to see and know those around us. The subconscious and inconscious layers of our mind hold complete sway over the surface layer of our mind, only the working of which we are usually aware of. The subtle and the buried layers totally dictate the movement of the surface mind. It is interesting to watch the process closely. And it is great to see a young person like you getting into it.

Venu Chettan: “The subtle and the buried layers totally dictate the movement of the surface mind.”

That’s exactly what I had meant. “Am I young, am I young?”

Now that I look at it, I can see grey streaks in your beard. My beard started turning grey only after the age of 50. So there is a tendency for me to take that as the standard. Yours will be snow white at my age!

u r into advertising na? what do u think about the new ad for micromax mobile showing a boy engrossed on the phone using FB and then getting hit by a car! i mean there is a lesson but the apology at the end sounds more like a triumphant proclamation! i think they shud ban the ad!

i second! this is something that forever intrigues me. i mean, look at it, we all r of the same species, and oh my, how varied we are and in what all way. i often doubt where and how does it happen, some streaks to differentiate every one from other. this a very interesting topic of mine. PEOPLE!

In books the hidden or subtle lines stimulates the mind, in people they exasperate after the first few encounters!!

May be. But what i was trying to say was, it's the hidden stuff that matters rather than the projected ones. Isn't it?
