A Tale of two Rajs !!!

Raj and Raj were two different people, born in same times,with
different upbringing, different personalities, different experiences in life and
a different outlook towards important things.They were also similar in more
ways then one. Both of them could best be described as "dreamer ants" who
dream of things pleasant and beautiful, without ever loosing there
hardworking streak.They were both great romantics at heart, well at least in
the beginning.Witt, charm and persona aplenty, they were interesting normal
people without the need for or presence of any extraordinary qualities.
their flamboyance was in their being themselves, and that they did with
effortless aplomb. One Came from a small town, with a eased out pace of life,
that almost cared for you as it took you along. The other was from a big city,
which made you sweat every day, just trying to get through the day.

Small town Raj was a doer, a free spirited person.The impish streak in him
was unmistakably prominent, and oozed from him grin. He fell in love in his early days
and like all first loves, his too did not work out all that well.It shook him , and his
romantic fire was covered with ash of despair and angst. Gradually he turned into a
emotion less person,a bit of a hedonistic sadist. And a good one at that.

Big city Raj was a thinker, a procrastinator, who valued his word more then any thing.
The child in him was prominently strong and shone through his smile. He dreamt of finding
eternal love, but somehow was always struck in meaningless relationships.This gradually
hollowed his ability to trust and left him emotionally fragile
