Mind Boggling
Can I tell you something?
Yes.
You know people think they are wearing clothes but actually, they are naked.
????
And, when people go wearing their mountaineering shoes, it is actually just their legs.
What was that? I did not understand it.
Why didn’t you understand it?
Ok! Repeat it once more.
People think they are wearing clothes but actually, they are naked and when people go wearing their mountaineering shoes, it is actually just their legs.
I am sorry I have still not understood it.
Then I think you have to grow a little older to get it. You will get it when you turn 44.
Oh! Is it?
Yesterday –
I thought hard about what you said that day. I think I understand it now. It was kind of intelligent. Where do you learn all this from? Some school discussion?
I know everything myself.
Were you talking about signs that day? S-I-G-N-S signs?
No, I was talking about science. S-I-E-N-C-E!

Such interesting questions can be asked only by children and mine ask when they are studying. I get confused as to answer them or scold for wasting time

I think I kind of understand the naked even though wearing clothes part. But the last part of the conversation confused me. Where is he getting all this wisdom from? He is not 44 yet, or is he? What is this Anamika, tell me, tell me, tell me now!

Well Vinitha I thought so that I got it what he wanted to say. I can feel that you and me are on the same page with respect to the clothes part. But when he said it was science, I lost it once again hahah

I’m totally lost here, Anamika! But I like the way he propounds his theories. All we need is someone craftier and cleverer than him to come and dissect his theories as it has been with philosophers through the course of history. I bet none of us can do that yet! Haha…loved the funny premises of his logic!
