Solid Happy Memories

I will not say that I don’t think of you anymore. Neither will I say, that I think of you the way I did yesterday. But yeah, this is for certain, that I do think of you. As a friend you were dear, and perhaps, today, the only reason you reside in some chapter of my life's book, is, you were once a friend.

I still revel in the evening breezes we felt, the laughters we shared on the beach, the brisk walks we walked, the tears we wiped from each others cheeks. But somehow, I am not at pain anymore as I reminisce you. Somehow, the journey apart magically transformed to my favour. And I am at peace with my inner self. I have learnt to believe, that what you have this very moment, is all you could have had. I don’t know if that’s the universal truth, for a truth for me none-the-less.

We love people, give them a piece of our hearts, even though they didn’t ask for it. And feel like we're on top of this world. And then, things happen, and the pieces we gave away fall into some puddle of mud, where we cant find them anymore. We search for it, in futile desperate bids to glue them with their owners but in vain. And then comes a moment of calm self realization. Of letting it be, the way it wants to be, lost in translation.

We all have at some point gone through treacherous paths in life in different ways…relationships, health, career....and if we only keep the last moments in our memory when things fell apart...we tend not to be forgiving....but in every of those situation there is a high point...where we are really at the top of the world (well most of us are) and if you remember those times....maybe just maybe....you will have a forgiving heart and a lifetime of good solid happy memories....


I think that’s the biggest truth I have learnt in recent times. Thank God.
