" I think Prime numbers are like life, they are very logical but you can never figure out all the rules, even if you spent all your time thinking about them,," So runs a paragraph from the book I am reading right now, -Mark Haddon's ,'The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night Time', and since I read the lines an hour back, I have been thinking of very little else, we go through every single day of our lives, pretending to be well-planned, orderly and love to labour under the illusion that Life is exactly what we want it to be, how foolish we really are!
We all like a certain amount of order, predictability and planning in our lives, it is a different matter that for some of us, present company included, it takes a slightly more pathological form, and for all of us, all that we do, from morning till night, is in accordance with this plan, but in-spite of all our best efforts, life is as unpredictable as always, dealing us exactly the hand IT wants, and pretty soon we are left trying just to salvage the game, all thoughts of our 'master plan' long gone from our minds.
Life is like a set of Prime Numbers,with its own set of perfect rules, but never quite fully comprehensible, and the list never quite complete,,,,,,,,,
