Are we Alone ?

On of my friends in Pune (yes I have friends from Pune too - what do you think) once told me - "we are alone in life in our most heart-felt moments". His words never sounded more true ... though at that time it sounded contrary to the life I had - crowded - I had wondered for a long time - "Are we humans alone?" - aren't we social animals - part of a fabric - don't know whether we are alone may be yes - are we independent - well ...

On a related note - today in office A and L said that they saw a flying saucer (UFO category) outside the cafeteria - "Well again -are we humans alone?"

You mean "flying saucer" in MS ? :-)

May be, they started using windows to control their aircrafts. That sounds a bit scary ;-)

talking about being alone had read this book sometime back... 'The heart is a lonely hunter' by Carson McCullers... pretty good ... it was her first book at 23.... devoid of sentimentality.... it deals with things you want to do deep down inside.... the things which you alone have to deal with...

recommend it to your friend too....

BTW is MS food that bad that ppl have to throw their plates out the window... :-)
