in-Floo-ence

It's so amazing to notice how we are shaped and inspired by things happening around us. A little kid on the street reminds you of what u were when u were in his shorts, a desolate old man would probably conjure up a picture in your mind of what you wouldn't want to be in later days of your life. A refreshing action movie's lifelike hero  would influence the next half an hour of your mind's thought process and the way you roll up your sleeves or accelerate your bike, trying to catch a few onlookers' glares.Hrithik would have made all the gyms in India wet with dreams of youth in 6 or 8 packs and uncles looking at their family packs in shame.How many gulli cricketers would have swayed the bat like Sachin and flaunting their MRF stickers,as if Sachin entered their little souls after evry 50 or 100 in his matches.Priyanka Chopra would passively make all the girls watching her on screen, concious of their looks and make them run to the washrooms or their mobile beauty parlours under their arms, for a touchup. Though all these inadvertently occur to everyone of us, we never take notice of them and conspicuosly reveal it to the world around us, we are too egoistic to accept the fact that we are driven by the things we see and the things we think of, and not all our life goes according to the way we want it to  and a larger part of it goes according to the way it has to , because it is destined to go that way and it will go that way, no matter what may come. And all of us are sub-consciously copycats, in our own ways.
