Sometimes:

• The Heart refuses to believe what the Mind knows is true. That jalebi rich in ghee is bad for health. That the roadside chaat is injurious to health. That chemical changes are permanent. That people forget each other and time can weaken the strongest bonds - laconic, ionic or platonic. That putting good money after bad is counter productive. That you should not invest everything you have in one stock. Or one dream.
  
• Bad things happen to good people and vice versa. The prize you did not deserve but won nevertheless. The heart shattering words that tore through your heart like a pet rabbit tears a white bedsheet. The hole in your heart caused by a ricocheting bullet, angry genes or a much-feared conversation.
  
• You are so hungry you can't eat or you are so tired you can't sleep or you are so sad you can't speak. Life comes with myriad tricks. More tricks than the grandest magicians. And there are no rules. Just when you thought you knew how to tackle the fickle beast, it grows a third horn and (honks it?) hits you hard. Somehow life seems to know where it hurts the most. Those who have suffered from migraine, stones in the urinary tract or arethrosyncomphalynxcaricitis [ ok, just call it a heart break!] would know.
• You really need a vent to empty your heavy heart or heavy bladder.
  
• Scepticism and pessimism join hands to create a self-fulfilling prophecy. Bad things happen just because you think they will happen. Or may be because you let them happen. The ice cream stain on your favorite shirt, the weak-knee syndrome or the perpetual khich khich in your throat.
• Star rated movies go by the most innocous names. Like '18 and confused'. Or 'Deep Throat'.
  
• Thinking is the most tortuous thing to do. More tortuous than listening to a certain cough-and-cold-infected singer, hanging upside down on a hook attached to your belly button, or seeing your own heart getting pierced.
• Undervaluation manifests itself in the most unexpected ways. "Your pen is not worth it". "That movie is not worth waiting for". "That thing is not worth getting angry about".
  
• You should let go. Of your sweetest dream, your favorite (but now undersized) jeans, the chappal whose battered sole is now wafer thin, and a lot of other things.
