Do you believe in fate? I do. for a reason or 2. One particular email i remember vividly. There was this girl who was going to get married with her fiancee in a forthnight's time. However, before the wedding, he broke off the engagement and married someone else. Of course the poor girl was devastated. Cant remember what happened in between but aniway, one day this girl met a monk with a magic mirror. He asked her why was she so sad and she told him her story.

The monk listened to her silently and then said: " Look into the mirror and you will understand." She looked and here's what she saw. It was dawn and the stretch of beach was empty except for a naked body lying on the sand near the edge of the water. Someone walked past and gave the body a glance. and that was that. Next, another person came by and this person did something. This person, took off his outer clothing and covered the body. It was not a good sight, the naked body. But that was all he did. Next, after sometime, another person came by and this time, this person buried the body. The vision faded.

The girl looked at the monk. She did not understand. The monk said, you are the one who covered the body with clothes and gave the body respect. Your fiancee's wife was the one who buried the body and gave it closure. K.A.R.M.A. Your finacee has repaid you these years you were together but you were never meant to be man and wife. Its time he repaid the one that put him to rest those years. . . .

You believe in this story? You believe in K.A.R.M.A? What do you call it then? This ability to hit it off with someone straight away sometimes. This feeling as if you've known them forever even though it was only a day? Why is it sometimes you just cant speak your mind with some people even though you've known them forever. It makes you wonder what happened in the past? Was there even such a past at all? It makes one wonder.

C.H.E.M.I.S.T.R.Y. Yet another word to describe this feeling of being able to hit it off with someone. Just like the mixture of chemicals in an experiment lab. Too much and it will explode, too little and there's no reaction. Just right. Ahhh.. thats another thing. What's just right aniway. U know? I dun. Maybe you would like to let me know.

Yesterday you called. You said you may be leaving. When will you be back i asked? Dunno, you said. It made me treasure you a bit more then. Because you were leaving? Maybe. But no i was not sad. Why are you leaving then i asked. You wanted to do something more with your life so that the next time you' re back , maybe there will be something more. But it was never suppose to be like that. You can rain all the money and diamonds and cars but where's the C.H.E.M.I.S.T.R.Y. Sometimes you scale so high and when you finally reached the peak, you look around and realise that you're all alone. Where's everyone else? You're so fast that no one could catch you up. You concentrated so much that you missed everything else along the way. You re so fast.

And yet some are so slow they never make it to the top at all. Should i like the fast you or the slow you? If you're too fast, i ll never catch up and there ll be no one to catch me when i fall coz u r always in front. And even if there's someone to catch me when i fall, it ll never be you then. Too slow, and i ll grow tired of waiting for you. So now what. Just right . Beside.

Everything happens for a reason. Do you believe in that too? I do. everything happens for a reason. But will that reason always be a good one? Is it fixed? Or issit when you believe that the reason is a good one then it will be a good one and vice-versa? Anione knows?
