Miracle Workers...

And do you promise to love, honor, and cherish her in sickness as in health, in adversity as in prosperity and forsaking all others become and be unto her such a husband/wife as God direct that you should be? until death do you part?"

Now all of us have heard this quite often..at wedding ceremonies...but you know what...there is always a group of people by us who don't need to take these vows loudly, yet who will be there beside us when all other vows fail...

I am someone who believes that there is the one perfect person out there for me, only i havent met him yet...and that life's course will make our paths cross..I do believe that it is all destiny to meet that one person, but i also realize now that it is destiny that i met a lot of others in this journey called life...

Honestly when i was doing my 12th, i would have laughed at anyone who told me I'd be working in Mumbai in 2 years...After 12th i went to Pune..and many of my classmates were bewildered cuz they knew i was set to move base to UK..

And Pune to Bangalore to Mumbai and back has been quite the journey...but definitely a whole bunch of memories thrown in there...and the reason for these memories are definitely the people who i was with at different points in time...and maybe its destiny that took me to these places, not in search of the one, but in search of the ones...

Its crazy how we wish we were back in college or back uin school, back to the glory days...truth be told its not the school or college we miss...remember how much we always wanted to get done with it...but its the people that we miss...the people who sat with us through the boring classes, the people who'd pick a fight for us, the people who wouldn't drink, but would take care of you while your puking your head off after a piss drunken night, the people who made us laugh through all those times, the people who'd cry with you and cancel thier plans when your boyfriend ditched you for christmas, the people called F.R.I.E.N.D.S

With friends around, time flies...the laughter, the pictures, the gossip, the shopping..Well i remember once my girls and I wanted to dig a big pit and bury all men [we still wanna do that btw]..I remember when my girls didn't question me when i was sneaking out a lot, even though they knew i shouldn't, i remember when one of my friends panicked at one of my violent outbursts and picked up the phone i threw on the road in a fit of fury yet let me vent wothout saying anything, i remember when i was left completely alone for two full days locked in my room, cuz they knew i wanted to be alone, but always found candy bars under my door, i remember chocolate pudding and girls night outs, i remember continuing conversations i had 6 months ago without needing to wonder how it became so easy, i remember getting advice on why shouldn't do that and still going ahead with it and coming crying back to the same people who warned me not to, yet not being crucified, i remember getting sneaking into my friends room in a messed up teary state so that parents wouldnt notice, i remember posing for goofy photographers in a five star hotels and not thinking twice avout how we appear, i remember going to a club in a salwar kurta an still having the time of my life...

At the end of it all, most recently i remember sending out Special new years messages to almost 20 people and being hit with a lousy news at the dawn of new year, yet knowing and believing that i'd get through it...that I'd be safe...

Maybe that vow is not spoken aloud between friends, but there's no doubting that it is in its truest form, found only between friends..

Wow..that was a beautiful post. I could relate a lot to it, coz I know what EXACTLY you are trying to say in it. :D I know and understand what you are trying to say when u say u remember some things..
We were not exactly around each other during our first year at Symbi and honestly I would not say i was too fond of you, just coz I didnt know u at all.
But then I got to see a completely different Dil. I got to SEE Dil more often. And now i know you better than i ever knew you before..
Love you loads,
God Bless,
Nammo
