Let’s
see. What shall we talk about today? Umm, did I tell you about the last time I
got into a fight? An actual come-what-may, all-hell-loose fist fight? No?
Well
I'll tell you why, because I haven't had one yet!
Isn't
that a shame? I mean I have had been in some brawls and fights yes, but never
actually an all out gritty dirty ones like they show in movies. Sad.
But
then, when you come to think of it who has now-a-days. We are all too
'civilized', our conflicts don't always include broken bones and twisted limbs.
Sure most of us know people who have done such things. People with a violent
streak who lash out at other fellow earthlings at the very least of
provocations. I know such a guy from Gurgaon with such inclinations. He is
famous within the my group to be the first to throw a punch at someone, most of
the time out of sheer spite. We worry about him at times obviously, given his
puny stature but we had long back decided taming him was a lost cause.
One
my friend thinks I maybe didn't get to have this pleasure so far given my own
stature. Yes, I do agree I am a big guy and stand even a head taller than most
people I know. Maybe that's the reason I've never really been graced with a
real challenge. Nobody likes bruises.
I
can understand if that sounded a little too pompous and gallant. Just a thought
though. I mean, I read everywhere how the world is a dangerous place now. Evil and
violence lurks at every corner. I just fail to see where the violence is.
People are still timid and tamed. People still argue/yell to make their point
to win disagreements.
Maybe
I have been lucky enough to not know violence much. Maybe my own violence has
been packed away someplace.
Today,
I would like to punch a wall. Really punch it.
