My point

Just got hold of a mail I wrote a long time back to a very close friend of mine when he tried to convince me of getting rid of fags (which I had recently started at that time) by sending me a very harsh message online. I was in a little inebbriated state at that time (yeah...i do this sin too!!) and seriously wasn't in the mood to argue over this point. So, the best method I realised at that time was to write him back describing my point of view on the matter(every sin has a justification u see!!) . The tragedy was that we stopped talking for quite some time as he got quite pissed off with my reply. Though since than we have resolved our differences and share the same beautiful relationship as ever but I simply cannot forget this incident thru my life even if I want to, the mail and it's repurcussions that is.
It ran something like that...

" Hi,
This ain’t no justification mail urging u to talk to me as asked to abstain from. This is just to make one thing clear and drive home the point that every person needs some personal space of his own which if devoid of makes one a rebel. It automatically incites him to do what he was threatened not to do with dire consequences. For how long can one abnegate himself from things which sometimes if not always give him certain pleasures? The pleasure of being free to do what he wants to do……do what he always wanted to do .To live one’s own life. To atleast try and experience everything that life has to offer whether good or bad.

Certain people have that adventurous knack of doing things that others detest. That doesn’t always make them wrong. For others might not always be able to experience them, learn from them and most of all enjoy them. There lies the beauty of life ……unexpected, unprecedented and un-preprogrammed.

People should understand that individuals are different and it is a sin to expect from them what you never intend to do or never have the courage to do. Coz rules, regulations , boundations and above all expectations can act as anathema to some. They are mature and ADULT enough to understand what is right or wrong for them and this thing need not be reinforced upon them. I think that in mutual understanding lies the beauty of friendship which can be eternal if friendship is what friendship is meant to be. Not a clear cut relationship guided by self-opinions of others and their concerns for others. For concerns, if overdosed can also cause one to suffocate and might turn a good relationship sour if they turn into possessiveness or rather over possessiveness for the one at the receiving end.

I hope this drives the point well at home.

Extremely sorry if I’v hurt ur feelings but try to understand my point of view also."

It's now that I in my full senses realise the causticness of the mail and the impact it might have had on him for the time being. Life does bring u at certain junctures where you have to be rude at times to some of the closest people around you jus to satiate your ego I guess.
