It's a dog's life!

We humans always look down at these quadrupeds often by commenting “It’s a dog’s life” and “a dog’s death”. Known for their faithfulness these creatures are free from all the social forces and the so called shame. Certainly I cannot look down to them when I think of sex!

I woke up today morning and stood at the window pane glaring at the things on the other end. Another pleasant day with lots of things to do. The birds were chirping as usual, the city buses were busy again, people rushing towards there offices, children toddling towards their schools and the wind continued to scare little butterflies. Just the very next moment my eyes struck up with this couple deeply engaged in sex. But my center of interest was not in their act but to the reactions of the passer-bys. Of course I was concerned about the two as well. She looked younger than him with a well toned feminine figure enough to arouse any of the males of her species. And this lucky chap seemed so lucky to have her.

Just then passed a bike, a lad with his two little chicks on the rear seat. Interestingly, the man saw this couple in the intimate act and drove his bike with a 60 speed from 20 in not more than 3 seconds! It was a crowded street and people kept on moving steadily. There were even some of them who didn’t even bother what was going on. On the contrary some were so much bothered about them that they stopped and stared. A few smiled, a few frowned while a few pretended to be ignorant about it. But my hero here was not concerned of the world and neither was the heroine! So free, unrestricted, no bounds at all. They didn’t know what they were doing but they wanted to do it. Many a times, it seemed that this couple would be disturbed by the passing buses and trucks. But this morning they were in their high spirits and trying to convey the world that we don’t care a damn for you. And that’s what I call playful! Playful sex.

Can humans ever be so free! And that was the very next thought that tickled my mind. It’s not just about sex but do we enjoy the freedom as animals do? We love to be free but like to be within our bounds. We like to enjoy the beautiful things in life but we need to abide with all those limits. Just that we are humans! Civilized!

“The geyser’s on Neeraj!”
I heard my roommate screaming from within and discovered that I was getting late for work. I wished to see the climax just with the same anxiety as I would've when I watch the climax of a good movie. And how can I miss the climax! And that was the end of a great play – sex that was so free, so playful. Wonder if humans could do the same with such an ease and freedom. The ultimate answer I find is ‘No’ just when I recall the face of my nerdy neighbour who has four daughters and still desirous of a baby-boy!

I can’t work anymore! I want to sit home with you all and relax. I can’t carry all that anymore.”

Such words from Dad make me realize his entrance in Geezerhood. And, all of a sudden a bold, strong Dad becomes so weak, so timid. This is the time he feels he needs a break. This is followed by a reduction in confidence level and that’s a major reason of heartache in most of the seniors. I know great many people who dislike gray hairs mostly because of their pessimistic approach towards life. Reduction of confidence levels could be due to several factors apart from health fronts. It could be due to some unachieved feats or some things not confessed. Certainly, there is a feeling of dissatisfaction not due to loss of a long owned power but due to certain things not occurred or occurred and a few tasks yet unaccomplished. Nonetheless, there is no end to what one can do but life seems to be too short when one decides to do something great. Consequently, a feeling of failure starts haunting him.

“Are you crazy Dad? Don’t be a nerd. You are not old yet!” I say but Dad seems so reluctant to accept it.

Old age is mostly psychological rather than physical. When a father finds his sons taller than him, certainly makes him feel older. He starts feeling tired, weary for what he has done till date and wants to pass on his responsibilities. He feels the power of his arms within his sons and himself powerless as if he was never strong. No matter he is a great man for all the things he has done so far. This! Definitely is a time he has to be rewarded for all his efforts, for all the pains he took! Its time for him to feel his achievements and feel the bliss for which to achieve he has toiled till now. He is the one who taught me how to differentiate between the good and the bad, to fight against the unfair, to respect the great and to suppress the false. The lessons of ethics and the postulates of truth that you taught me are so strong to sustain me that I need not bother of my deviation from them for the rest of my life. Today, your body looks old but never would be your mind. You can still continue inspiring people and transform them into great humans, sculpt numerous of Neeraj, your words do have the same impact even today, and you rock even today!

You could never be old father!
