As egg is an egg….



Today as I sit all relaxed in my cubicle…lazily going through the daily lousy forwards…greeting u a good morning, afternoon and a good night...these are the kind of mails which all the souls in software field would know …these are the mails which I personally detest… as I really don’t appreciate a fake good wishes to a person whose face u hardly can recollect…I bet those who forward these wont remember any of the faces of the people not in city they reside in..so y take the unnecessary formality when u don’t mean a thing…as I have no work now other than the little finger exercise ,i.e., 2 of my fingers dancing between the shift + del keys on my keyboard…now to ppl who are not tech savvy (not that all working with me including me in this IT ocean are “tech savvy”) would be wondering what is this shift + del… to articulate myself better to all the folks reading me…I should just say that I was deleting those fake mails “permanently” from my inbox…
As I sit squirming on my seat restlessly thinking of the day’s set of activities…I realize I have done nothing worthwhile as of now…did nothing but open my communicator and chat with all my fellow employees as jobless as me… looking back I realize that not even a single thing I Did today has given me the slightest sense of fulfillment…
now this is something which makes me feel like a zilch…. Now this is a feeling any person born under the proud sun sign of “LEO” can tolerate…so as my daily routine goes I tried to satisfy me trying to find at least one silly(there is no lower limit to this variable) thing which I did I would say give me a satisfaction…after racking my head…. I pop out with the answer “hey, you had bread and eggs for the break fast…”… As egg is one my hot favorites I felt really happy…and again I had that cheese on my face…

As I work for software company and have a taboo that I “work for 8.80 hrs” a day... I sit on my chair allowing my wild sense of imagination to go amble about to any place…then I started wondering why an egg of every thing made me feel so happy…. An egg which has a really funny shape according to me….not a complete round...Nor an ellipse…but something else….An egg which smells so bad when had raw…I really had no answer to this question… as people say “some questions can never be answered”.. This was one of them… one which I could not find an answer to…
This egg whose origin I can never discover even if I had the highest of the degrees in my hand…cause it is one of the most old unsolved puzzles of the world…which came first the chicken which lays the egg or the egg which cracks open to become a chick…now if I try to answer this puzzle with my tiny brain…it would be an undue waste of energy for me…cause I think long- long ago I have read in one of the pages of my science text that..Functioning of brain requires burning of carbohydrates…and that means my energy which can be used fruitfully is being burnt out in some really petty activity…
After all this…I still have no answer to my question why does having an egg make me feel happy…may be because “AS EGG IS AN EGG”…
