Love

Every single breath refuses to leave till it echoes her name.
Every single thought declines to end till it sees her smile.
Every single second denies to pass till it gets a glance of her beautiful eyes.

When I read a book, she makes the protagonist secondary.
My thoughts wander in search of her, leaving the book, crossing the high mountains, vast deserts and deep blue oceans.

May be this is what people call Love.
An ambiguous term given to an indescribable feeling.

3 Years or is it just 3 days?

August 9th 2003: Cochin
Sibi is enjoying his college Life. He has a Job in Hand. He is happily roaming around as if he has won the Game of Life.

August 9th 2004: Bangalore
Sibi Joins his first company. He's a bit excited, a bit thrilled and a bit scared too.

August 9th 2005: Chennai
Confused Sibi. He is not even sure if he is happy or sad. He is not sure if this is what he want from Life.

August 9th 2006: Chennai
Still more Confused. Better with lot of friends. His Life is circulating entirely around his friends.

August 9th 2007: Bangalore

Less confused. But still a bit confused coz of not knowing why so. New Company, New people, New Outlook, More practical and Matured Sibi. Now his Life circulates mainly around his family, a bit with friends and a bit with his career too. Looks like Sibi is finally successful in bringing stability in Life.

That’s how Mr Sibi has changed over time. You can see in the same blog what he wrote on August 9th 2005. At some point, we think that this is Life but only to later realize that it was nothing. Life is a game that we learn to play as with Time. Some rules we learn by violating it some we never learn. Some short cuts we take may end up in losing the game. Finally at the End of the Game, God alone decides if we have won or not.

Friendship Day

Yet another friendship day is here. I never realize the fast running time till I am reminded with special days like today.

Today the Gift shops will be flooded with the Friendship bands.
The Flower shops will look as if flowers were only yellow.
Today People all over the world celebrate their Wonderful Friendships.

In my college days, I too used to be very busy tying friendship bands, giving gifts etc.
When I look back, am feeling as if I was so childish. The hours I had spent in Archies looking for the right Cards, the right Gift. Then running to the Florist for yellow flowers.
For very special ones I used to mix Red and Yellow flowers Just to show that I cared more for them. Those were the days when only things we had to care were these (Well books was secondary which we used to open only a month before exams).

Today things have changed. We can’t just play around like how we used to.
Life’s a bit serious now and we are always running behind the schedule.
If we slow down a bit, someone else is there always to take our place.

But still, today I found some time to recollect the dear friends that came to my life.
Some stayed and are still my dear ones.
Some stayed but are not as dear as they used to.
Some just left leaving some good and bad memories.

Even though People say “No Thanks/Sorry” between Friends, I just want to thank the ones who have stayed with me, the ones who still care for me.
Also thanks to the ones who have drifted away from me with time. Just want to tell them that they are still close to my heart.
And last thanks to the ones in the last lot for the good memories they left for me.
