How to make your life longer...?

Sitting on my revolving-chair , a fly starts troubling me a lot...a house-fly , all lazed up and tired , the fly sits on my computer-desk , I had better choices ... instead of wondering about the fly thats been troubling me for last few minutes , I was more interested in clicking that 'submit' button , Orkutting...! , not expecting but the self-decissive brain casually lifts my arm up , I get hold of the nearest newpaper , fold it up and expecting that I would not , in any way possible , could hit that fly , I know house-flies are fast creatures...actually faster than the time it takes for us to determine if we can be faster while trying to hit the known-faster thing....

So with least-expectance of hitting the house-fly , I fold the paper and hit the fly 'snap'! ....a witty sound ...I just killed that fly ....I mean why the hell it didnt fly ....I didnt want to kill it!! .... I was sure I wasnt going to hit it , it was supposed to be quick ...But I had hit it... a sudden-silence in the room ... walls gazing at my right hand .... 'the quicker one' ... my heart skips a beat ... I had just killed a fly ....though it all took less than one second to complete the guilt.... it seemed like I was trapped in a silent-room for hours ...repenting my act...

Perhaps , many a times when your life seems longer than its supposed to be.... times when we do something unsatisfying ,tiring, like standing in a queue with 56 people in front and 22 behind for four hours...is far more longer than watching India Vs. Pakistan match for more than 8 hours...Life does seem longer if it is filled with unpleasent-conditions...but then whose up for that.....?....So...do you want a longer life?...think again...
