2 Minds !!

No, the title is not inspired from the latest Chetan Bhagat book, but from a movie "Antaheen" meaning endless. A bengali movie made with such subtlety and emotion that even though I watched it with english subtitles, I didnt find missing anything.
"Are`nt we all in two minds ?" is one of the lots of good lines in the movie, which make you think. And yes, when I think about this one, I find it credible because we are always in two minds. Unsure, unknown of our needs we always tend to weigh our options , try to strike a balance between emotion and practicality , decide upon the present by thinking about the future. We end up putting every decision of ours in a weighing balance and though some would say its a good thing to do, the trouble is we continue to weigh it even after the decision has been made. Its probably to do with our nature of being dis-satisfied with our present and weave dreams about future and what our present could have been had we not chosen the current one.
And , as the movie shows, its sometimes to do with ego. Ego , is like a double edged sword, on one hand it gives you the individuality, the confidence and imparts objectivity to your life on the other hand it makes you do stuff you didnt want to, makes you not do stuff which you want to. To make things tough, ego can`t be controlled.
