Concentric Circles of Importance!!

I was talking to my friend the other day! Surprisingly, we both have almost the similar kind of a philosophical idea on people-treatment! Probably this is the case with almost everyone who is reading this, may be you are not realising it. It is all about setting the level of importance to people based on various factors like comfortablity, intimacy, love etc.

Allrite! Here we go. Just a little high school chemistry.

The acquaintances are considered as electrons revolving in spherical orbits around the nucleus. Here even the people in the family are considered as electrons!! The nucleus will enclose yourself and your other half (just one other half). The most important people hold the initial orbital closer to the nucleus! You can have your parents and siblings in this circle...or may be even some friends! This could change for each and every individual! The next circle is for the kith and kin, which includes the closest buddies and the sometimes will also have some close cousins etc., the people you really care for! Then comes the acquaintances that you treat with more than just a Hi-bye...like someone you spend the whole day with but still finding hard to place them in the closest buddy list. An inexpendable acquaintance! Then finally comes the real hi-bye acquaintance! The people who are expendable.

On the whole, we can have it as

4th orbit- Expendable acquaintance
3rd orbit- Inexpendable acquaintance
2nd orbit- Friendship
1st orbit - Affection
Nucleus- Love

Ideally speaking, your other half would have to pass through these 4 orbits to penetrate in to the nucleus and be with yourself! This is the person you share your “everything” with!

The whole process itself is cumulative! To get through each and every orbit you will have accumulate the earlier orbit's property! Getting through the 4th orbit is based on resonance, respect and comfortablity! The 3rd orbit is through time and gestures! The 2nd orbit is through commitment, dependability! The final orbit is through possession without jealousy, affection, care etc., Finally to pass in through that orbit and to get in to the nucleus, you need that other property which you term it as "Love" It will have everything and something more than that. What is that something? Self-abnegation? Well, I have tried asking that to people, tried to read through philosophies, every damn possible thing! But never was convinced with any of the answers...!

Recently, My friend, in one of our whinny virgin talks said that "Sex is like god to him...never seen it in person and never have felt it as well!" May be love is like that too!! One will feel the bliss only through experience! May be its esoteric!

May be the whole idea itself is too complicated a thought. May be one should not qualify people in orbits. May be the nucleus will be penetrated without all these accumulations. Whatever it is! It is certainly not a thought to be overlooked!

circles of importance... i tend to agree as well as disagree... life being the journey it is, is filled with co-travellers... who happen to share their specific part of the trip from their origin to their destination, with you in your specific part of the trip from your origin to your destination... the details about the origins, destinations and the specifics about which part of whoseoever trip it is, are all unknown factors, which could be dynamically changing according to what people call 'karma' or 'deeds'...

anyways, i believe, that for some people, the nucleus may contain themselves and their better halves... for some, it might have more room for parents, mentors, family, friends, etc... and the orbitals, are all totally like the wave-patterns in a beach, dependant on the positions of the sun and the moon, with so many other unknown factors... i strongly believe in the theory that there is not a fixed theory to this... but, for the pure purposes of analysis, reasoning and research, we could probably presume that people brought up in similar environments in a similar living economy and family background at home, similar theories could be looked at...

bharath,
this is brilliant. i subscribe to the way you've looked at things. you can always add on to this. thats what life is all about. there is a beginning to a thought. it gets worked upon. we are all like leaves of a tree. some connected directly and some indirectly either through twigs or branches or stem or barks or through roots. all connected.
very very good post. i loved every bit of it. kudos.
cheers

Is there a word called "inexpendable"...some seem to use it as "unexpendable" which is defined in the literature as well...anyways..I think its unexpendable! and not inexpendable...!!
