Its been a long road. Perhaps I had chosen the road less travelled by, you know the gravel, rocky one? The one William Wordsworth talks about?
Hmm. Whats all the fuss been about lately? Have I evolved into something I always detested? Is it true that Whatever-you-wish-for actually and universally turns out to be true? Perhaps I have been wishing in the negative. Always wished for Not-turning-into-something and just as Rhonda Byrnes "The Secret" suggests, "The universe does not recognise negativities. If you wish that you 'dont want something', the laws of the universe tends to ignore the word 'dont'..." Ha! Thats a scary thought.
But I guess it kinda turned out to be true over the years. I'd rather not elaborate on what I have become and compare it with what I was. I have done enough brooding, thought about the past enough, in fact still dream of people I have lost over the years.
Phew, I am only 21 and look how it goes.. I feel like an old woman with caves and wrinkles of experience on my face which are somehow visible only to me and not to the world.
I have my Wisdom teeth. When I realised they are there, which happened because I had been experiencing a sharp pain over the tooth even before it had spurted out, I went to the dentist and he said I have an "Impacted Wisdom tooth" on the left lower jaw. It was infected and It had to be extracted. An Impacted wisdom tooth is one where the tooth does not have enough place to spurt out completely and gets stuck below the gums due to lack of space. It can be a real mess if you google such things, specially what the doctors term the problem as.
Well, you know the fables or stories we have heard over the years about the "akkal daant" and how it really does indicate wisdom in a person as it emerges? I kinda am bowled over by the concept. I like to believe that my wisdom tooth is coming out the hard way because well, my wisdom will come to me the hard way. Perhaps I will be taught lessons before giving me a wise man's crown. Perhaps I need those lessons cause I have been quite the bimbette over the years. Hmm. So what do I do with my wisdom (tooth)?
Should I get it extracted? Or wait to watch how it will eventually turn out? Will it magically find way throught the gums and emerge victorious? Or will it stay embedded below the gums I have had since a baby?
I need my wisdom (tooth). Well, if you know what I mean.
