Theory of Relative Friendship!

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...
