Prologue:
An atom is made up of a nucleus and protons. The nucleus is further surrounded by electrons which orbit the centre in a fixed orbit w.r.t. each other and do not cross each other's paths. Whenever the atom comes into the vicinity of a similar atom, it could steal/share the electrons of the neighboring atom. Now the orbits of these shared electrons are defined by the nuclei of both the atoms. Extrapolating this to several atoms with similar composition, a molecule and then a compound is formed, where the laws of gravitaiton prevail.
Inference:
The electrons are so positioned that they cannot drift away from the nucleus and neither can they crash into it until some external force is exerted on the atom, for the atomic structure to be stable. This reflects on the entire molecule, compound and then across the enitre element itself. "Universal Law of existence!"
Analogue:
A person has himself and his relatives. The person is further surrounded by friends who are within his/her reach and at certain distances and these friends are not interchangeable. Whenever the person comes into the vicinity of a similar person, they steal/share each other's friends. Now the distances are governed by the laws of friendship. Extending this fabric of friendship over various groups of people, a friend's circle(FC) or a mutual admiration society(MAS) is formed where the laws of attraction prevail.
Inference:
The friends are so positioned that far-away friends/ attractive strangers are brought into the satellite neighborhood(not into the home) of a person and similarly, close friends are also pushed out of the home of the person into the adjacent neighborhood so that a balance is maintained and the friendships sustain with suitable distances. This reflects on the entire FC or MAS where there is a force of similarity binding the fabric of society. "The law of Live & Let-live!"
Corollaries:
1. Social Network Algorithms are based exactly on this model. These networks are redefining and quantising the friendship quotient/structure. [U r not very far from friends, but u r not close to them either]
2. By this law, U cannot break the rules of networking by going away, even if u want to, and neither can u barge into a friend's privacy (for whatever reasons) at ur whim/fancy!
3. The friend could be on the 10th planet but he/she is as close as a scrap away, at any given time! Contrarlily, the friend cud be next door, but u need an appointment to meet him/her.
4. Bygone are the days of personal touch to a friendship, the in-things are the rules set by social networking.
5. V r writing and playing according to the rules of social networking, creating a real-time and buffered play-ground.
6. No one is a stranger anymore and nobody is personal anymore!
[Voila! There!!..I have tried to put in my pseudo-reality analysis here... OK, OK, I will not grill ur brains anymore... continue as u were.]

Theory of Bonding.
Considering completing half the journey, looking back and moving forth, there is this inherent wisdom which just makes Samay reassuringly relaxed...
Level 0: Among men & matter, the bonding is stronger with the similar kind. Further, within the type, there is a liking towards certain individuals, which is beyond reason. The same individuals are forgiven and embraced even if they are out to harm you. You admire and like the individuals all your life, no matter what! The contrary is also true...You would hate or despise someone who is good to you and like bitter medicine, you will try to avoid them throughout your lives!
Level -1: There exists a group bonding among your/my 'types' which are spread and defined over various Geographical, Cultural and Racial dimensions... only because the journey started from the same origins, same stereotypes and sharing of similar experiences through various eras. The lineage of the stereotype being known, the individual seems to be familiar and well-know even if you meet them for the first time or from afar. Lack of further updates keeps the propsects of any further interactions at bay.
Level +N: Akin to limited Gene Pool, the experiences have to be diverse for the journey to continue. "Familiarity is an obstacle in the path. Hence even if you meet a mirror-image of yourself, the journey departs from there towards the unexplored. Different lineages depending on degrees of variation merge along the journey to share the truth collectively, not necessarily experience it on one's own. Sub-species to Species to different species, differences in nature being the degree of separation of the mergers, the journey continues.
Level +1: Back from Sharing and developing intuition, one starts exploring the unknown types, to answer the curiosity at the next level. On the path, the 'intuition' helps to recognize familiar individuals from the unknown without spending any efforts.
Level -2: Unbonding! Strictly not to be exercised!
...the search is on...

Boot the Pace-setter!
In a world of references, more energy is wasted in subduing the anguish and turmoil created within, due to pre-programmed 'desire' stereotypes. Like it or not, right from the starting point and throughout the quest phase, huge chunks of energy are spent idealizing & perfecting the way-of-life which was not suitable to that individual. But both wisdom and will constrained, the individual pursues to conform to the 'Pace-Setter(PS)' rules, who is omni-present and the effects permeating through the 'to-be-led' individual consciousness.
Breaking the grip of the PS is to come to terms with oneself - realisation and acceptance of 'as-is'ness. If there is contentment here, it is this state which needs to be perfected. If not, the quest should be for that missing connection to the fulfillment of that lack.
Akin to a 3D-Geodesic, the shortest path between the 'where-am' to 'where-to-be' is a straight wise path, which needs to be walked. This path, as difficult as it may seem and in reality is, is also the actual geodesic to reach the final destination in the shortest span of time also. All other routes are a deviation or dead-end to an individual's pursuit of the journey and the final destination!
Kicking the PS is the first step to realize how far one has deviated from one's own geodesic and the second step is to try to align with this path. If competition is the food-for-existence, it would serve well to compete with oneself (as this geodesic is applicable to none else). The failures(lesser than on the PS's path), learnings, arriving...on this path are the only experiences required to achieve fulfillment and perfection, as a by-product!
To start with, follow the steps below:

To start with, follow the steps below:
- Know the final destination (If it is unknown, wait and meditate, rather than following the PS's mirage).
- Shun all the practices/habits not required.
- Once even the slightlest hint of the journey is visible, start in the direction unveiling itself. The start could be painfully slow, but that is the ground-breaking effort required to moving in the right direction.
- Progressively, as the path becomes de-fogged, run like you always wanted-to and like you never could! And while the run is ON, the journey reveals itself more grandly. This would be the ultimate promise delivered to oneself and most content life lived, for posterity!
Conclusion: What/Where is the scope of the Pace-Setter here!!!

Journeys!
Macro View: All journeys are alike ... although travelling through the same path everytime... we miss the common and retain the new experiences. The purpose to achieve is the reason to travel, not necessarily physical. The concentration is on the "Y"s here. Generally, not looking for "x"s.
Left to the self, there is nothing new about the journey.
Left to the journey itself, everything is new.
Micro View: But no journey is alike even if it is done for the same purpose and through the same path everytime. Every variable has changed, even the individual observations. The concentration is on the "x"s here. "Y" cannot be comprehended here in it's totality!
The next ? is to understand the reason of the journey. What gaps do these journeys bridge and where do they take me? Know that if you are stuck, you need to reset! Reset to be aware of the journey and the rest will unfold...
