This is for my best friend

Before i met you..i was lonely....

Had friends....but not someone like you...

Was happy from above....

But inside me i was waiting for someone ..

Someone who could understand me...

Someone who could read my mind...

Someone who could say when i am lying...

Someone who could be there for me ...

You were always near my friend...

But i don’t know when i got that opportunity to add the tag ‘best friend’ ...

I must say god is happy with me...

I don’t know how will i be able to thank him ..

He has gifted me with one of the most beautiful things of my life...

Right at the time when i required it the most...

Its only u who knows me from within....

Its only you who can cheer me up when i m gloomy..

Its only you whom i trust more than myself...

And when i think of my best friend..its only you and you...

So thanks for being there..

Thanks for knowing me the way even i don’t know myself...

Thanks for all that you have done to make me feel good...

It is not possible to thank god ...

So i thank his beautiful creation....

This poem is dedicated to all my school friends...

My life was plain and simple....

Studies were at their peak...

And frankly i was doing pretty well...

Never bothered why i needed anything else....

Until i met my good old school friends ...

We had been friends during our school days as well..

But it was different from what it is today...

I used to meet them before...

But it was not the way i did today...

Things were light and simple....

With very less opportunity to mingle...

It was an august Sunday...

And it was the time to celebrate friendships day..

So as usual i went to have fun...

Never realizing how much will i get to learn...

It was that day i realised how important these people are to me..

And the credit goes to the video ...

Thereafter i tried to gel with everyone...

And things became better than they were before..

Made some very good friends....

Had excellent times...

Moments that i will cherish forever...

In the past one year life has changed drastically...

Especially in terms of friends...

Initially i never had anyone to call my best friend...

Today...i have loads of them...

I have realised how important this phase of life is...

And will always be thankful to them...

Love you all my friends..

And hope to write similar lines even ten years later....

Dedicated to my friend Sunny and someone he loves to the core....dude don't worry..everything will be fine..it is basically something that sunny will write for her...

Dear..i don’t know...why this has happened ...

Dear ..i don’t know why things are going like this...

Dear..u know how much i care 4 u....

And also how much u care 4 me...

Whatever happened in the past few days...

Has made us both cry night and day....

But I still don’t understand one thing....it was you I liked..it was you I loved....it was you ...about whom I thought night and day...

Then why was there a need to let anyone else other than the two of us know...

Don’t you think that it was always us...

Don’t you think that we could have solved this ourselves...

Don’t you trust our love to be strong enough to surpass all this...

Then tell me one thing dear...I know ..u know....what bond the two of us share...

Why did anyone have the courage to even talk about it...

Why was there a need for them to talk abt us....it was us...and not them...

Why was it essential to let the world know abt it...i love you,,and not them....

Those comments hurt me...they tease me...they break me...i know u love me..

How could u even allow them to say so...

I don’t know why this thing took place....but i will always love u ...take care...

How many of us think that the world is made up of people wherein some are blessed and some are not....

How many of us believe that God has not given everyone equally...

How many of us have a superiority or an inferiority complex....

I know the answer is all of us (if not all then majority of us )...

But let me tell u what i think...

According to me..the world today is cultured so as to appreciate some qualities more than the other..

In very simplistic terms...

Take 2 individuals...A and B...Now let us consider a hypothetical situation..wherein these two individuals are endowed with only 5 qualities...p, q, r, s and t

Now...let A be good at p,q,r and not that good at s, t ...

While let B be good at s,t and not that good at p, q, r...

Now for the world what matters are the qualities p, q and r....because this is what is important to them...

Now though b is good at s and t...he is not appreciated just because...he is not giving the world what they want...

In terms of mundane examples..it can be elaborated as follows...

Consider two people...Dhirubai ambani, and some ordinary man...

Now we all appreciate Dhirubai's efforts...because what he did was useful to us...he was a money maker..a quality that measured his stature...accordingly...we never considered if he was kind...someone who loved his family or not...what mattered to us was the fact that he could make lots of money...

On the other hand the ordinary man though not as smart as Dhirubai..was someone endowed with kind nature...someone who showered love where ever he went...there was only one difference that he was not intelligent as Dhirubai..therefore could not make money as he did...

I agree with this human psychology...but tell me one thing ..when God created this world..he never decided as to what quality possessed by an individual will be given importance in the real world...he showered his blessings equally on everyone...just that some got more of say a quality p...and some more of q...

If tomorrow our minds were to measure one's stature not on basis of his monetary power but his kind or loving nature...(and assuming that Dhirubai did not possess these..this is just an assumption to explain what i am trying to convey..no offences)..the world would have known him and not Mr Ambani....

Thus , it basically boils down to how things around us are molded to give ranks to factors shaping our lives...

And it is these ranks that decide whether u will be Mr Ambani or that ordinary man....

CONCLUSION:- What i mean to say is that everyone is blessed equally..it is just a matter of luck of what is important when... so never say that God has given him more ...you never know when the tables turn... and the opposite person will be saying the same thing about you

so finally....after thinking so much....whether i can write a blog or not...here i am ...with my first post...rather my first attempt at writing something...

or should i say my first thought...

but before starting with it...allow me to tell you..when and why did i write this...

i have just recently shifted to kandivali...so my travelling time has increased substantially..(actually substantially is a little exaggeration because initially it took 45 mins and now it takes around 1hr 15 mins)

...so one day when i was returning home from college..as usual in a slow local...i was getting bored...got a place to sit at santacruz station...so started typing something at random which ultimately summed up to an SMS that was nine pages long..it goes as follows

A THOUGHT !!

V come alone in this hostile world...

V meet people...

Talk and interact with them...

V make friends...

Have fun..share our joys and sorrows with them...

V make enemies...

People who keep us aware of the binarity that exists in our surroundings...

V make mistakes and learn from them...

Life goes on like a continuous, flowing river..

People come around and depart..

Use the river water for their profits..

The river says nothing...it is open to all...

It keeps waiting for a true companion..a true friend..

Someone who will be there right till the end..

There are many who come...

Expectations rise...

Friendship blooms...

The river is happy to finally find the one (or ones)..

But it forgets...

That when there are storms...when there is a drought..or when the almighty is angry..

No one will be there..

It will have to face everything alone...

Friends can only comfort..

But at the end of the day it still has to tread a lonely path..

With no one by its side...

Our life is just like the river...

Ups and downs..

Pros and cons..

Profit and loss..

Pain and gain..

It is just that in spite of knowing all this..v can not do anything..

Because the river just can not stop flowing..

Similarly our lives will never stop..

So learn to deal with it...

And be happy with what u have..

We are blessed because unlike the river it is in our hands to change the flow..
