come, let's have some ice-cream!

i am hungry

i have decided to eat my favourite ice-cream

i have opened the fridge

i have taken out the full ice-cream brick

i have started eating the ice-cream

it is so tasty and yummy!

--

the scoops are getting bigger

and more frequent

the technicals are clearly saying

that the size of the brick

is falling fast

and i am likely to slow down and stop!

--

but i am enjoying it.

the more i am eating it

the more i want to eat it!

--

my granny has seen me eating the ice-cream

she knows that i have a sensitive throat

so she asks me to eat only one cup.

"you have eaten enough, child!"

she says.

i look angrily at the informer (technical indicators)

they are clearly screaming that i have overeaten it!

but it is so hard to put it down!

i ignore granny's message

cold-shoulder the technicals

and continue licking and gulping

my tasty creamy ice-cream!

--

15 minutes have passed by now,

i have eaten

much more than i initially intended to eat,

the technicals have picked up the placards shouting

"severely overeaten!!!"

my stomach is satisfied

but my tongue is not,

neither are my intentions!

so, i continue to enjoy!!

--

it is half an hour since the party began!

the brick is more inside me

than left on the plate!

the technicals are red in their face.

so is the granny!

--

i pause

put down the plate

have a walk till the verandah

come back

look at the inviting plate

and pounce on it!

--

granny starts laughing

and goes!

technicals start looking the other way!

--

i fail to understand

why the technicals were predicting

the end of the trend

of the grand party?!

i am still feeling

as if i have just started!!!

who says i have over-eaten?

i am sure they don't know my capacity!

--

a full hour has passed by now.

i have finished the entire brick.

granny has thrown out the brick wrapper

wrapped around the technicals!

==============================






moral of the story:

while trading or eating ice-cream

forget about technicals

and logic

.......just follow the mood of the moment!
