How Are You?

How are you? a question, that when put to you, allows you to contemplate.
Many a times, we fail to realize the state of our being until we're actually facing the words of this question.
Most of us hardly even answer this question honestly.
Even when its put to us with absolute care and concern.

Have you ever thought for once that maybe these three words could mean more than 'I LOVE YOU' ?
Just think of it.... both phrases consist of three words each, of which 'YOU' is the object of concern.
A person asking you of your well being literally gives you an opportunity to introspect and be honest to yourself too.
Cause its so often that we pass off an "I'm fine, how are you" immediately after the question without even thinking once, of how well we truly are.

Everyone suffers, everyone goes through good and bad in different measures.
Some of us can handle it all and some of us can't, even though we want to or maybe even if we think we can.
Sometimes, a "how are you? " can easily make someone feel more loved, than 'I LOVE YOU' can.
Pure care and concern goes a long way in loving.

Lying in response to this question is easy, who really wants to know my miseries right?
Well, to people who really really love you, your problems are theirs too.
Be careful who you're answering to, recognize love in words. You'll know when its out of pure concern and when its a conversation starter.
In lying to loved ones, u lie to yourself. And what greater sin to commit?
