My girl friend

I saw the skies a million times
I felt the breeze in the cold mines
But, it was you my morning dew
Who became among my chosen few
You are bright as sunshine and soulful as the euphony of chimes
You are a sweet friend with whom I can spend the refulgent times.



As they say "Friends pick us up when we fall down and if they can't pick us up, they lie down and listen for a while".

We all have a bunch of friends who are there with us through all odds. A crazy lot with whom we can laugh, cry, drink, scream, loiter around and do whatever insanity crosses our mind at any point of time. I too have a big group of friends but then there is this one person I love immensely. My partner in crime, my lovely girl friend.
When I look back all these years, it seems unbelievable that how have we survived this, because honestly I am a difficult person to handle at times.
The first time we met, was a boring mechanical workshop class where everybody was busy making his own score. In the second row there I was, all nervous, sitting with some alien looking creature, who hardly spoke and had eyes "as big as the jumbo buttons we had on our school blazer" and she was sitting on the last bench, busy doing some silly stuff. She turned up to me, we had a formal introduction and that evening when I returned to my hostel, I found her to be a hosteler as well. That was the beginning.
This was followed by a lot of new and interesting developments, some mad trips, sluggish mornings, crazy night outs, late vivas and the wrecking exam times ;)
She has always been there in the frame, either with me or behind me.
Today nearly after six years, things have partly changed; we are geographically separated but what remains same is the madness we had then and the madness we still share.

Peek-a-boo

At times I am totally let down by the momentary failures but one good thing in the day just brightens me up and then I am ready to make the flight again. 
Crying, this is another thing I am good at, It makes me feel good as if I am blowing out all my worries with the tears *sounds too dramatic!
My friends asked me to read the inspiring and motivating stuff, books that encourage us to remain affixed to our goals and in breathe optimism and I did try reading one but, nothing changed *sigh!
Momentary disappointments they still sink me and then I am back to my pleasant self.

We all have such moments which tend to pull us down momentarily but then the key to come out and get back to our jovial self is little hard to find but not impossible..As impossible itself says, I'm possible!
So, lets pledge we will cry but then we will laugh on our childish stupidity. Even if the ship is sinking, we will try to come out and float because even if it is a temporary defeat, it will add to our rawness and make us an inch wiser!
