Nowadays I’m spending a huge chunk of time with IF.
IF is now a
persistent term.
IF refuses
to leave us easily.
After the
conclusion of every dialogue, we make space for IF.
Ironically
IF, UFF and OOPH have started sounding so similar; we don’t try very hard to
differentiate.
Everything
begins with IF. And everything continues in a sleepy pace; but with a
resounding IF.
IF is
necessary.
IF is
vital.
IF is seen
clinging to the rim of a teacup.
IF is seen
pasted, posted, painted and plastered on social media.
I wonder
why aren’t we repeatedly chanting – No Ifs, No buts.
That is how
IF has entered our lives; taken complete control of it.
When we
stare out of our windows, an IF waives at us.
When we
stare at our own home from somewhere outside, the entire building seems to be
painted in the shade of IF.
We are
living with IF.
We are
sleeping with IF.
We are
rising with IF.
We are
huffing and puffing IF.
We are exchanging
one IF for many Ifs and we are trading back with many Ifs to own one
prestigious share of a big IF.
IF I may
add; IF doesn’t seem to be in a mood to take up the status of being ‘temporary’.
IF is
permanent. IF is adamant. IF is absolutely audacious.
Have you
tried switching the television nowadays and tried surfing between channels? IF
is trending on every channel.
Prominent
news anchors are debating over IF.
Panelists
are being appointed to analyze IF.
IF is being
weighed across different strata of the society.
IF is being
criticized, questioned and at the same time replicated across civilizations.
IF is
confident. IF is redundant. IF is with us, for us, by us, of us. IF is seeing
us.
Till the
time this big, bold, bitter IF continues to plague our lives, we will continue
to share IF as our Whatsapp status.
So, till
the time IF is here; we will only continue to exist.
IF there is
no IF, we may someday step out too.
But till
then we need to remember, IF is definitely around.
