Findings of a mere observer

 Last week, I was just sitting by myself, and my thoughts lingered upon a certain topic. So, I'm at the age where I find romantic relationships interesting and see them blossom all around me. Some blossom, some wither away and some try to blossom through the mushroom like bacteria clinging to the stems. All in all, it's always a beautiful sight to watch.
