She:

I hope you don’t mind me putting few
snippets of our conversations on my blog
|
He:
|
I find it really amusing
|
She:
|
Amusing?
|
He:
|
Yeah. I mean how you have sometimes
made entire posts out of a single line of what I would have said and that
too, may be in some random context
|
She:
|
First, I know you don’t say anything
in random context. You are too intellectually and psychologically aware of
yourself to say anything remotely random. And second. That wasn’t my question.
I asked do you mind me putting them up?
|
He:
|
Nope. I don’t mind. But can I ask
you the reason behind putting them up?
|
She:
|
You sure can
|
He:
|
So why do you put them up?
|
She:
|
Do you always read my posts?
|
He:
|
A question in return of a question.
Great !!
|
She:
|
Your answer is hidden in my
question. So tell me, do you read all my posts?
|
He:
|
Of course I do. I follow your posts.
And who wouldn’t do that knowing that I feature in some of them?
|
She:
|
You sure, you read the entire posts?
|
He:
|
Yep. Sure. Now where is my answer in
this?
|
She:
|
The answer is that you don’t read
the entire posts. You don’t read the comments readers leave on these
conversations
|
He:
|
And why would I do that?
|
She:
|
Because sometimes the readers have left
comments that have provided me a completely different outlook about
the conversations we've had and about the kind of relationship we share. Sometimes
they have seen in these conversations what I haven’t been able to see. And
that is what I seek, not just as a writer but also as a person in these
conversations.
