Murphy’s Law!
It seems like this most of the times in life. We aspire for cake but get served salad. If the need of the hour is salad be sure you’re getting pizza. The mumbo jumbo of our respective karmas* is quite baffling.

They say…what you are & get is a combination of your past life’s karmas, your present life’s karmas & the direction that you further choose as the course of your actions. Now this in my opinion is pure unfair. E.g. If there has been a past bad karma, it shall finally catch up with you in this life & would pull you away from performing some good karmas in the present coz the past life actions were negative in nature.

And if you’re still able to fight all that negative energy n strive to be a better person…the chances of being rewarded in this life looks slim coz a part of the good deed you do shall get transferred into a future account to be rewarded in your next birth. Now I understand from what context the coining of the phrase…karma karo…phul ki chinta chod do* has been derived.

So what does one do with such a life? Since the heart is pumping n the lungs flexing anyways…why not enjoy the disparage of life? And if one has to enjoy what we call disparage…why not have a little fun on the way?

Fun for different people is rather spelt differently. There’s appropriate fun, freaky fun, adventurous fun, dangerous fun, conniving fun, healthy fun, stupefaction fun, racy fun and many more that’s escaped the flow of thoughts but shall come rushing back after I have posted this article.

To give some appropriation to my fun terminologies….let me touch each one of them individually.
Appropriate fun : When one enjoys a certain thing or feeling only the way they are supposed to.
Freaky fun : The fun that cannot be made public to escape a referendum of complete banishment.
Adventurous Fun : When you want to question god’s decision for keeping you live & kicking.
Dangerous fun : When the experimentation with forbidden fruits is uppermost on your mind.
Conniving fun : You gang up with Mr. A to poke fun at Mr. Z coz Mr. Z is cute n popular with everyone right from Mr. B to Mr. Y.
Healthy fun : When you enjoy tomato juice for all its natural inherent properties & go about coercing other people into nursing similar habits.
Stupefaction fun : When you enjoy tomato juice for the added intoxicatingly invigorating properties & go about coercing people to nurse similar habits.
Racy fun : Owning a moped armed with the piquant ambition to beat a Harley.
We have digressed to the yonder here. Lets stir back to the main street of thoughts….Murphy’s Law! Whatever can go wrong will go wrong!
There are times when we want something real bad not becoz we need it but becoz we can’t have it. Such was the case with this acquaintance. He had gotten used to winning hands down & popularly prevailed over the attention he got from the opposite sex. And then he meets this women. She just wouldn’t get impressed! Her bizarre rejection pulled out all the feathers in his cap he had so painstakingly put together over the years.

I have never been rebuffed….he shared. The ego’s been somersaulting with such speed that the mind is driven. So the favorite victim, rationality is chucked out of the window. In the middle of all this another glitch is this guys supposed to be married. So what’s making him stray this way? Boredom perhaps with the added spice of forbidden fruit tasting best! The wife’s a stunner….but the grass on the other side looks strangely more succulent with a pleasing coloration of tender quality.

Murphy’s Law is playing havoc here! A seemingly decent marriage is getting compromised with the thought that there can never be a story with “and they lived happily ever after”.

Now the woman who’s getting chased is a friend. So let’s look at her story. She’s single & smart but a bit impractical who’s still looking for true love. Does she know what that love is? I mean what indeed is true love? It can mean different things for different people. She seems to be a bag of jumbled thoughts but one things clear…she does not believe in stealing love or borrowing it from unsuspecting people.

So what she gets is not what she wants. And what’s not there is what she strives for looking for this elusive emotional perception at places that are quite out of her reach. Murphy’s Law at play again!

Speaking of missing the bus reminds me of my own mum. She had a cute son & modest circumstances had brought forth the resolve to not have any more babies. Her friend on the other hand had a rich husband & the couple was looking forward to some lovely additions in their family in the near future.

As luck would have it, both the ladies felt sick on the same day. Karma I guess! After all they were best friends. The Lord has his ways & they might be quite strange sometimes.

My mum complained of gas & her friend suspected pregnancy. They visit the doctor & both come out with crestfallen faces. Murphy’s Law was working overtime. Mum was reproved by the doc for not understanding that she was 22 weeks pregnant & her imaginary pregnant friend was let off with some digestive pills. Both got what they had not bargained for.
Copyright © BuntysBanter 2007
And then there was this friend who was in love with the idea of being in love. She choose a good looking love, experienced love & realized later that it was a poseur in its wiliest form. She later got what she didn’t want in the guise of a “oh so average looking goose” who was a mine of gems. Such an epitome of honour, expelling a jewel ever so often that finally molded my friend’s perception of how she loved what she had vehemently not wanted not very long ago.

Summing up the stray thoughts here…. Murphy’s Law does work! If it does not…it’s probably got overshadowed by a combo of karma’s! There is hope!

*Karma - the good or bad emanations felt to be generated by someone
* karma karo…phul ki chinta chod do - Do good deeds without worrying about the rewards.
