The Love Experiment

 “Love is when someone else protects you from your own self,” a quote from the book “Marry Me, Stranger”. You can find thousands of quotes like this on the internet. Are they practical? People fall in love with someone for several reasons. Reato did a scientific experiment to set things that could make someone to fall in love with someone else. The primary factors in Reato’s experiment were 1. Physical attributes 2. Wealth attributes 3. Personal compatibility, 4. Social compatibility. Reato divided the volunteers into two groups. The first group would undergo some changes to increase four factors’ intensity while the other group unaltered.



Wealth was the first factor taken for the experiment. Reato adjusted the volume of the wealth attributes for a few in the first group. The two groups met in a park like environment. They spent several hours together. The successful match count was 0. “Money cannot buy love,” Reato muttered.

Reato strongly believed that altering physical attributes would give some result. After a successful physical characteristic change for a few, the groups met again. Again 0 matches. Reato understood the fault. It would work only with the combination of all factors and not independently.

“It must be a combination. I must rewire it to work,” Reato was telling itself when it heard something. “I am God,” the voice said. Reato was not programmed enough to detect God. It just stood and watched. “I know what you are trying to do and let me tell you how I do it.”, said God and continued. “I keep a magic cell in everyone which has a matching magic cell in few other people with a power to attract. And when they meet, love blossoms.” All Reato understood was that it would work only if he could program it in a way that the robots mimic the magic cell, and none of the other factors matters really.

Reato brought the two groups and set a matching signal circuit in every robot and arranged a meet. It was a 100% match this time, and it was that easy.

My Book Shelf - Year 2017

I find it difficult to get this reading order. And I guess it would be still harder to read them without changing the order. I may allow one or two new books to be included in this list, if required. Share book reviews and ratings with Kovil Pillai, and even join a book club on Goodreads.

The Power Game

 Even if you count from the Homo sapiens time, it has been half a million years and from the caveman life to the one who attempts to control the universe, the progress is tremendous. A number of struggles that we have overcome are unimaginable. I am still not convinced whether all these are part of the Divine plan or the Nature adjusts (if at all something is required) itself to any change that takes place in it. As long as we believe in science, we can truly appreciate our power and the things we have achieved. The oldest of the power struggles can be the one between men and women. It is perhaps so subtle that we can’t even call it a power struggle. While we manage to fight against external things, this is something happening in our own race, and we haven’t had an answer yet. A coffee selling 10 times costlier than the price of it in a decade ago may mean the coffee price has been raised. But when you compare it with the price of everything, it is relatively the same. If you look ...
