There are soo many things that went through my mind last week...this week...and usually every week, to be honest.
Whenever i sit on the train...i sit and think...usually about what events are coming up...what i need to do and i actually wonder what i want to add to this blog.
I think about the weird community on the train...if u catch the train at a particular time 5 days a week, even if u dont plan to, u get to recognise people. You sometimes learn their names and most often than not, u learn about their life...the things that are good or bad...who just recently met whom, what they thought of whomever...who shagged whom...who will shag whom...what romantic thing so and so did for that special someone...who is currently pissed off with whom?...who's mother did what recently that patronised so and so...where someone's future is heading...what who will do what on the weekend...and so forth.
I catch the train at a particular time every week day...and i usually sit in the same seat on the train.
I'm certain that every time i caught the train with my Ex, prior to breaking up...people recognised us as a couple.
They would have noticed how i would lean on his shoulder and take a nap every morning. I am also certain that people noticed the day that my Ex and i were taking a break from the relationship...the first day of the break, i have a feeling that the optimist on the train would have just assumed that he was sick or just didnt make that train for the day. While the pessimist would have been wondering if our relationship was over before it was even over. Do they have any right to know such details??? no. Should i be bothered by this? not really...because i shouldn't care what people think.
It is quite interesting that the pessimist sniffed out that the relationship was over before i even knew with certainty. But then again, thats what pessimists do. They envision doom before something has even begun rolling. They probably sat there snidely, trying to predict the date in which it would end. And then again, i may be thinking too much into this...
To me, we all observe and find out so much about one another on the train, and devoid of all the details that we learn - everyone on the train remain strangers to one another. Yet, the person who sits behind you on the train may know ur inner most secrets without even acknowledging you as someone.
We are interesting creatures...humans.
And i think too much!
