too good to be true!

Why do we even say that? If everything works out well, why is that it is our instinct to question it or assume it to be jinxed. Have we become so cynical that we refuse to believe that happy endings do exist? It is mainly because I don't think we know how to define happy... Maybe things do get messed up often, but mostly I feel it seems that way because we expect too much.

My friend Sangay has this theory about Hindi movies. She says enter and watch with no expectations and you’ll come out satisfied. Because we all know most of it sucks, but frankly we take some sort of pleasure in cribbing about it.

I think she’s making a valid statement, and it’s not just about movies. Miracles don’t happen and I agree, but we can’t use that as an excuse to not believe that things could turn out really amazing.

I still believe I can get high without a single drink (company matters…)
I still believe that there is at least one person out there just to make you feel good about yourself as there are those to make you feel bad about yourself.

I may be an atheist, but in this case, I’m a staunch believer. I rest my case.
