Once upon a time
There were two friends with different minds.

One of them loves a subject
Which other used to hate

The subject was Mathematics
Which one used to live
And other wants to kill.

One fine morning.
They decided to have a meeting.
Whether maths is of any importance
Or it should be dumped in a filthy garbage.

The killer said, it's all nonsense.
The subject is so baseless
The questions shameless
And the answers meaningless

He took a deep breath and then continued

Lets take Geometry first
In which proving is a must.
Prove whether a triangle is congruent or not.
Prove whether a triangle is similar or not.
Prove whether vectors are collinear or not.

A better question will be
Prove whether maths sucks or not
And a much better answer will be
Above examples show maths sucks. Hence proved.

Seriously, Why to prove something when we can make it from the eyes?

The lover said
With a smile on his face
My dear friend, we do this
So we don't remain in bliss
Just by seeing from the eyes
A practical way is what we need to move in our life.

The killer thought for a bit and said
Ok, I agree to your so called philosophical way

But what about algebra
All these x,y and z, the so called variables
Have created chaos in my constant world.

The lover said, I know, this stuff
is a little boring and also more tough.
But it teaches that life also has some unexpected turns
Which we don't know how to travel at first.
But later on, we are able to solve it with hard work and some luck.

Now, before you point on calculus
I will myself speak on it without doing any minus or plus.

The differentiation teaches us that
Whoever tries to be constant and orthodox in his views
Will get reduced to zero if he doesn't move with the world.

Integration teaches us there is always a hope
In the form of a constant
In midst of all the problems
In the form of all the variables.

It's never the subject which has mistakes
It's we who see it in different ways.
