Recently, I saw a play “The Blue Mug” (btw, its an awesome play, do watch it, if it comes to your town). Well, the play was not about any Blue Mug, but about memories – small, big, funny, emotional, sad, happy, awkward – all kinds of memories.
Memories are such an entertainer for all of us, a game which every individual loves to play. You live more in your memories than you would have lived those memories. And memories are far more vivid than the actual event. Sometimes you spice up the memory on purpose, sometimes its just that you remember it in a spicier way than what actually had happened. And its so much fun to share your memories. Its the best thing you can do on a rainy evening and a power cut-out
.
Memories are the most integral part of you, what will you do if you did not have memories, much like one of the character played by Ranvir Shourie in “The Blue Mug“, or much like the guy in “Memento“. You are lost, you actually loose your identity. We never realize that the importance of memories in our life is so astronomical – its your identity, its you!
So lets keep making memories and keep sharing them!

Just a few days back I was thinking on the same line. A friend-couple had traveled with us on our trip to NYC. The whole trip they were fighting over trivial things – the guy was grumpy and the girl was crying most of the time. Now that we talk about that trip, they both talk in a oh-that-was-some-trip tone ‘coz all they have now of that trip are modifiable memories and some photographs in which they both were wearing a fake smile!

Wow! That’s a perfect example of what I am referring to
Actually, I think its a human tendency to remember mostly good things, and in that hidden urge, we unconsciously make our memories happy, which is good right! Think, instead of making only the memories happy, if the humans started to actually live like their happy memories, most of the problems might get solved

some happy memories make us sad and some sad memories make us smile…
Irony!!
