On Thinking and Relationships

What do you really mean when you say "I am thinking!". You recollect your memories and circumstances in the past and try to arrive at a solution for the current problem. The pre-conditioned mind gives you data from the vast memory repository that it has and you simply take a piece from the archive.

Now.. Do you really need to THINK in order to solve a problem. Is 'thought process' really helpful in solving a problem. From my past experiences, I have found that 'thinking' actually complicates the problem. 'Thinking' just sees a part of the problem and gives a solution for that. However, the vast majority of the problem which was unexplored in the past remains untouched.

Now I come to the most important aspect in human life - The relationships. By relation I mean friends, wife,lover,parents etc.. whom you think of even when they are not there. We approach towards a relationship with a pre-conceived notion. If you say 'NO' then you are telling a lie.
We think a lot before we involve ourselves in any relationship. We tend to draw parallels from the past relations and derive a hypothesis before we engage ourselves in a relation.

No one is alone in this world. If he/she tries to seclude themselves from the world then they are merely acting. All our mannerisms and characters are mended with every relation that we have. Relationships are the must for survival. Can you imagine getting yourself locked in a closed room for a week or so..?

But we really think a lot about the relationships and tend to complexify the entire chapter of it.
Some relationships are broken because of intensive thinking from both the sides. Relationships are not the ones that are to be approached via the tool of thinking. You need to do 'thinking' only when you want to draw some parallel from the past. Like when you want to write a code or something like that.

Relationship is a myriad path which was not discoverable by religion,sect, philosophy etc.. But merely by feeling it.

If I had raised a few questions in your mind. Then I am through. I wont think much about this post after I had posted it.
