Melting away ....

Follows from my previous post, here's a snippet from the conversation I had with ~S.

(We are discussing something very personal and serious as ~S is stirring her cold coffee. There's a brief silence and ....)

S: You know Rathish, problems in life are like these ice cubes. As long as they are there, they keep floating on the surface letting you see nothing else. After sometime they just dissolve and you don't even realize where they were.
Me: True - but it's not that they have disappeared. They have just become a part of your life - an inevitable part that you can't differentiate but has changed your life forever.
S: You are right - my cold coffee can become lighter, less sweeter but never the same again!

(We suddenly look at eachother and start laughing realizing we had come up much more profound than what we had intended!)

And yes! I am copyrighting it right away!
