A helping hand
Through the spurt of light, I saw a hand reach for me. He must have needed some help. Then it was dark again. The hand caught hold of me now. He surely needed help. There was another spurt of light, the hand lost its hold. It again grew dark. I liked the dark. It gave me comfort. The hand was nearby. I could sense it. He needed my help. But I could not see it. Why? It was getting nearer to me. He could see me. He knew where I was. I was in the dark. I was comfortable here. Why was he trying to hold me? He needed help. But it was getting suffocating now. I wanted to see things clearly. It was not clear. I could not breath. It was getting darker. I was shivering. I was drowning. I needed help.

I am dumb enough to be able to not understand the theme of the=is one.
Helping hands needed here!
@Saucy:
I believe you don't realise this is a non-linear story. Read again, only this time read from the last sentence to the first one.
@ Kush:
Brilliant.
Amazing.
Awesome.
Masterpiece.
I want more!!
wht the crap is this?? doesnt make sense in any direction of reading
@Anonymous:
This blog, like the last one, was not intended to be easily understandable. All the things i have said could have been said very easily in 1-2 lines. However, the purpose of the blog was only to let me explore my creativity and in this direction your comment helps. As much as comment by Aman.
I think it makes sense forward too.
In any case, very true it is gr8 piece.
Anonymous, i really wonder how you got the thought of saying this a crap.
I am still trying!
Alrite here is the summary:
Initially I feel like someone is asking for my help and needs it. Slowly I realize he is actually not asking for help but helping me and all the time it was me who needed help. You can also see that the whole description if for a person drowning. Thats why Aman suggested you to read backwards.
Drowning is to symbolize the trouble. The darkness symbolizes my fears. Also, there is an initial comfort in the darkness which is to symbolize the initial attraction to do wrong ;)
Wonderful Peace of work . Beautiful combination of symbolism and metaphor. Really Amazing .Keep it up.

Art contradicts itself to be recognised,
Science does not, precisely for the same reason.
@anonymous
Science also contradicts . it is based on hypothesis which keeps on changing . Art is totally out of imagination and it has vividness colour and liveliness
I believe what 'anonymous' pointed out was that art is beautiful in the fact that it can contradict itself while science, though it does get contradictions now and then, scientists do their best to arrive at theories which do not have contradictions and this absence of contradiction causes science to be popular whereas the presence of contradiction in art emphasizes two different notions. Nice comment anonymous. :)
Nice explanation Kush . Great going ! but sometimes it is necessary to answer in a different way to continue the debate .
All the best
