ten years ago when they had fallen in love
We see only the new, the novel. We see only the changing; the constant is forgotten. You come in your room and everything is in its place -- you will not see anything. But if something is not in its place, you will immediately see it. The table has been removed, the clock is not there, the picture on the wall is missing. You have not looked at that picture for ten years -- it has been there and there and there; you knew it was there. There are people who have not seen their wife's face for years. If they will look they will be surprised at how much the woman has changed, because they have the idea of the woman that they used to know ten years ago when they had fallen in love. Then they were looking at her face; they were thrilled by her face. They are still carrying that old picture and they still think she is that woman. She is not! Much water has flown down the river; ten years is a long time -- she is getting old. If they look at their own wife's face they will be surprised -- who is this woman? They don't seem to recognise her.
The thinker only thinks about it; he goes about an about. The word 'about' means around. He moves around and around in the same circle . He spins many words. He can make many systems out of those words but those systems are like houses made with playing cards, they are of no use. Yes, once in a while you can become intrigued, utterly interested in it, but that is going to be only a momentary phenomenon.
