I would like to quote an SMS I received from Gowri

“Lot of things go unquestioned, lot of questions go unanswered. Few words go unsaid, few go unheard. Some dreams are burried alive, some are born dead. But our journey never stops – DATS LIFE”

Always Remember This:
Somebody is very proud of you.
Somebody is thinking of you.
Somebody is caring about you.
Somebody misses you.
Somebody wants to talk to you.
Somebody wants to be with you.
Somebody hopes you are not in trouble.
Somebody hopes everything turns out all right.
Somebody wants you to be happy.
Somebody can’t wait to see you.
Somebody loves you for who you are.
Somebody is glad that you are their friend.
Somebody wants you to know they are there for you.
Somebody needs your support.
Somebody will cry when they read this.
Somebody needs you to have faith in them.
Somebody trusts you.
Somebody hears a song that reminds them of you.

On my way back, I drop my colleague near cambridge layout and join Airport road near Commando Hospital. I peek through the window of my cab with the hope that I might get a glimpse of this girl – some day…
My search for her on the busy road ends as soon as I reach Corporation – this is where our roads get separated. I have not been able to spot her – even once

A single day did not go without talking to her, a single week did not pass without seeing her – now it’s been more than a month…

Wherever I go, whatever I do, I think of her – all the good times I had with her, the way she changed my life. I am missing all those “Ho”s, “Ok”s, “Hopeless”s, “Super”s, “Idiot”s, those cute giggles, those warm “Hi”s, those cool “Bye”s, those shiny “eyes”(list doesn’t end)

How can I forget someone who is a part of my breath? Every moment she will be on my mind. She is the girl who has unknowingly transcended into my thoughts, she is the girl whose smile has captured my eyes, whose voice lingers in my ears, whose memories are cherished in my heart, always. No matter where I go,what I do,all I need to do is close my eyes to see her.

The best part is, life has always given me reasons to laugh, hopes to live and good memories to cherish.

I am reminded of my favourite lines:

Thoughts go Away, So does the day
Life goes on, but memories Stay

So true – life can take everything away from U – except memories.
