I Could Give Up Chocolate But I'm Not A Quitter

Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart.
- John Nash, A Beautiful Mind
I had a wonderful time in conversation with my mother for about 15 minutes. I could have asked her for anything told or her anything. But I preferred letting her enjoy teasing me and my brother as she went on talking about my friends, then my brother getting married and then about I getting married. She asked me what would I would give my wife to eat. I didn't think of answering but she continued "pizza, burger and shawarma". I replied with "chocolate". But I didn't let that word come out of my mouth. It's too sacred and must be mentioned at the right times. But I asked her if there was any chocolate in the fridge right then. She said "no". I had been missing it for sometime now.

She had previously asked me why I didn't do the final project by myself and why I needed two people with me. Fortunately I had a friend there who explained her that it's not possible for a person to do a project alone and everybody has two people with them for it. After my friend left and took took time with me, she also asked why I had to do that project with only girls. She was laughing and so I took the freedom to give any illogical answer. I see that my parents and my brother leave no chance of creating fun of me. The only thing I don't like about them teasing me is when they use the words "Govinda" and "Himesh Reshamiya". I could have as well put today's title as 'A Beautiful Chocolate' but I don't want the movie to take any glory more than chocolate herself!

I finished watching 'A Beautiful Mind'. I liked it to recommend others to watch it. But it's I feel a matter of taste that one would like watching such movies. It's not always nice to see the hero impaired or helpless. I have a few more movies yet to be watched on my computer and a lot more with friends. It at times looks like a commitment to sit and watch even when it entertains and I like what it does to me. I am reluctant with almost everything but that's how it must be - we need to take time before we show any form of commitment. It's better that I don't get much into 'commitments' in this post.
