The wooden bench and relations...

This wooden bench being overused
Is not tired of welcoming 
Then, why do we tire?
Of people, love and relations?
Has time shrunken our hearts?

    Such an inspiring thought, it's high time to sit up and take notice of none other but our very own selves, before it's too late.

    PS: Wow, a 'Sims' tree - sounds so exciting! Many many congratulations on your win, dear - here's to many more :) :)

    I guess because we overthink and that leads to feelings like jealousy, competition etc.

    t's funny how when we see this empty bench it projects sadness. What would we see if there was a happy child stting in it? it is true we tire of maintaining relationships sometimes but in the end it is worth every minuet

      It all depends on our perspective :)
      And yes, I agree. In the end relations are worth it, no matter if we get tired of them.
      Thanks Mandy!

    Ah, the bench perhaps doesn't live life with some relations. So it's always welcoming. We on the other hand are emotional. We know we can't tolerate certain people, certain relations, so we tire of them :P :)

    Because it is easier for us to take everything for granted.

Everything was dull and dry. On such a searing day nobody could imagine even a blow of wind for split second  but Shanaya, a strong instinct believer already predicted , there would be rains shortly.  No one cared! She quickly went into her kitchen to prepare a mug of coffee and some cookies for herself. Her younger brother started teasing her for her dippy act. Hot coffee on a hot day! Didi, have you got crazy?  She wasn't paying attention towards him. She was calm,lost in the other world. Busy in blending cocoa and sugar. Again her brother in a teasing...

Jia, with her earnest brown eyes, was watching outside through a window glass. She was mesmerized to spot a peacock dancing beautifully on the terrace of a distant building. She saw a crowd standing outside under the cafe roof, waiting for the rain to stop and so that they could continue to walk toward their respective destinations. Jia was a sensitive child and mature beyond an eight year old. There were two kinds of people she found standing under the roof.

Jia could see them smiling, exchanging numbers. Maybe they ...
