Samsa had no idea about anything going on in the world or in his life, yet all he wanted was a long talk with a girl who came to fix the door locks. But somehow it showed that after our primary needs of food, water and shelter are met, we immediately go to companionship. Sixth story ‘Samsa in Love’ was a wild ride. Yes, the movie was super boring with nothing happening but did you think what was the underlying message? What that book was really about? Did you learn new words and new emotions? What could you do better when you are in a new relationship and also why do you always need to be in a relationship? Never really feel the emotions we are supposed to feel. In that we never really stop and reflect. When did cheating on your partner become so normal? Are we so incapable of mature adult committed relationships? Are we so incapable of not putting ourselves in a void and just staying there until there’s clarity? Are we so incapable that we must have another person around all the time?Īnother lesson from this story is how we are always in Action Mode, moving at warp speed from one thing to the next. Instead of being in that void of ambiguity, you look for another person to fill that void. What do you do if there is even a little bit of ambiguity in your marriage or your relationship? ‘Kino’, the fifth short story talks about that.
