302.* I miss depth in a world obsessed with speed*

I miss depth in a world obsessed with speed*


What do we instantly say when asked 'How are you?'

Yes the reply is in line with "All fine , hope you are too "

But is it always true to refer 

Or our mind is trained for this answer ?

There are three category of talks instinct 

One is in depth which is getting extinct 

Second is small shallow talks few 

And third are the ones who says 'who are you' when I ask 'how are you'

This is a world which seeks instant outcome and feels delight 

Which prefers taking tablet supplement than soaking in direct sun light 

The talks often are shallow 

From within one is not content but hollow

At times I take office cab to reach worksplace

And a colleague was next to my space 

I recollect from one of the previous conversations that he has a new born named 'toshikking'

So to make small talks I checked how is the little one doing 

His instant response was 'how do I remember these details tough'

As he would never remember them if someone is not close enough 

Generally to make small talks I recollect few details which may be lame

His response felt like this is a trivial information in my Brain

No wonder I take time to understand important thing

As these unwanted extra information are in priority wing 

I marked this colleague as a third class category I mentioned above 

I know how to deal with him next time now 

Forget depth , me being in category of small talks tend to slowly move to no contact 

Me expressing in writing is because there isn't anyone to talk and this is a fact 

Being busy is a blessing and I actually like the fast pace

Than keeping a dedicated time, I enjoy writing poems while commuting from worksplace 

To understand any concept I agree, we need to go in depth each time 

Learning curve applies and we speed ,excel and it's a progressive sign 

May be I am in that mindspace now that enjoy doing my duty and embracing speed 

And taking one day at a time and circumstance it lead!!!
