Last evening I was mending my compound wall, when I stooped down to mix the wet mud with the bricks. I wondered what led to the present state of this wall. All these years, I was busy pouring water on the plants in my garden waiting for them to grow and nurture and bear fruits of my hard work. And I forgot about the surrounding wall which bore the brunt of the changing weather conditions. The irony of my life, new relationships, recent friendships and latest objects got more importance than old parents, childhood friends, known places and heirlooms. It is then I realized how indifference and negligence can do more harm than outright dislike.
I think this is the (FIRST) One....NEO ;)
