Fish can smile...

A rare commodity in the now-a-days' fast paced world, where no one has the time to stand and stare, leave alone smile. Cultures transformed to put up an artificial smile, heavily driven by consumerism. The smile is stuck to the face like lipstick. Best potrayed by the air hostess in Meet-the-Parents movie.

In a world where most of the things are artificial, no warmth, no affection, no happiness, in the smile - I was lucky to have a fish smile at me, luckier to have captured it for ever. I can always look at the fish and smile back. The cute yellow fish was enjoying its swim - I imagine, and was always smiling. I can smile back without fear of having somethng sold to me. I should admit, I am sold to the smile. The cute one lives in the Monterey aquarium. Must be chuckling to itself even now. Just happy to be there. One can learn many things from other life forms and one of the best books I read is Jonathan Livingston Seagull* .
