Phones ringing – like the train ride in Sliding Doors

So, I am becoming vaguer with my titles, but hopefully clearer with my writing.

Conversations on the telephone have a weird personality of their own. They are amoebic in nature, they don’t come in standard shapes and sizes and can be changing characteristics over the course of their lifespan. Devoid of the physical contact, the face-to-face element, they lack the eyes in the right place. They substitute the same with the mind’s eye, making all interactions more subjective than they should be. This happens as the circumstantial evidence, the 3-dimensional physical characteristics of a meeting are completely erased from its equation. Therefore, very subjective and transient variables become more pronounced than they would otherwise be – the moods of the conversationalists have a very strong bearing on the experience, the overall environ in which the conversation is set (and mind you, there are at least two of them) also becomes an all encompassing variable in most cases. All of the aforementioned and many others, the mood, the smells, the mind pace of those involved – make every phone conversation a uniquely different experience, thereby, maybe altering your life course just a wee bit.

Just like the train journey that would alter the physical coordinates of the protagonists, thereby presenting a whole host of differing choices for the both of them… similarly, maybe phone conversations also have the power to alter mind space settings , making us see the world differently pre and post the conversation.

They also change our relative settings with other beings in the cosmic sphere, some people we talk to, connect with on a more regular basis and therefore, we get more influenced by them and the energies they impart and the ones, we are more distant with, fade away slightly, leaving a cold void in the zone of our existence.

But beyond, all of this, there are cosmic connections, soul threads, that go beyond the physicals. No amount of choices not exploited and trains not caught can alter the settings on those. The heat and wave strength dynamics are inexplicable by physics or for that matter, all objective theories put together. These entities, or relations– the unreal and the most solid ones are the gorges, and the Himalayas of our emotional topography. They are and they shall endure – for forever.
