    "Hold on to something!", you said.
    I looked up, once again blank.
    "What is so worthy that I will shed
    Everything? Is this just a prank?"

    I shouted, but you weren't wavered.
    "Whether you believe this or not,
    There is a reason for us to be here!
    Find yours! Then you'll have a start!",

    You said kindly and moved ahead.
    I stood there dazed, not convinced.
    Many things came and quickly fled
    Leaving me hold my head and wince.

    "if there is something that exists for
    Even this infinitesimal's presence then,
    Am ready to go to any length for,
    Knowing it. I know I may not win!"

    It all started that fine day.
    Not even once were I swayed.
    The pain of the past still haunts, yes!
    Yet I will seek nothing but the best!

    What do we exist for? I wonder whether we will ever know rgs. Just that if we are still here, that purpose is yet to be fulfilled. All we can do is carry on doing - what, why? We will never know.

    Well, I understand and agree with you Satchi. But its worth seeking and not getting it than quitting our attempt, right? And like all great truths, lets hope it will be simple and revealed when we deserve it. Thanks for your feedback. -rgs
