SCENE 1:
Idle mind : Being unconventional is striking! I wanna get out of the rut and do something I really wanna do!!!
Devil : What do you really wanna do??
Idle mind : <PAUSE> Something that I really like doing!
Devil : What do you like??
Idle mind : <LONG PAUSE> <SOFT VOICE> I don't know!
Devil : How about starting off by writing a blog??
Idle mind : BLOG?? and me??? I can't write to save my life (or anybody else's) No blogging for me.. PERIOD!
SCENE 2 :
Idle mind : What am I doing with my life? Feeding off people's short comings is not exactly the kinda life I wanted to live!!!
Devil : What do you wanna do in you life?
Idle mind : <PAUSE> < AGGRESSION> I DON'T KNOW! <LONG PAUSE> I like writing though.. Kinda sets in some amount of much needed peace. Devil : You could become a free lance journalist! You could start writing a blo.....
Idle mind : <INTERRUPTS> But how can I write? Also, I don't have what it takes to be there! CHUCK!
Devil : <SIGHS>
Idle mind : So.. what else???
SCENE 'N': (Scenes 3- N-1 left to readers imagination!)Idle mind : I am down with an "I don't wanna go to office on a Monday" fever. In fact I think I am down with an "I hate my work" syndrome! Too conventional a path to be trekked by moi! I need a change!!!
Devil : Change huh?? How about aerobics?
Idle mind : Naahh.. Knee pain.
Devil : Gym?
Idle mind : I hate gym!
Devil : Yoga?
Idle mind : Too slow!
Devil : Jog?
Idle mind : Early in the morning?? <HORRIFIED>
Devil : Dance?
Idle mind : I will need a partner <FLUTTERS EYE LASHES>
Devil : NEVER MIND! How about blogging???
Idle mind : <THINKS OF EXCUSES> .. <STILL THINKING>.. <EXCUSES.. WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU??> Phew.. <GIVE IN> alright alright.. I can give it a shot you know!
Devil : <PUNCHES HIS FIST IN THE AIR>
Hence the proverb, "Idle mind is a devil's workshop"!
