I do...

The story of US...

This one goes out to the five of us.

28th January, 2009:
Bangalore, India: One is slogging away at work, and checking mails.
Kolkata, India: One just got married! and is busy settling things, and she checks mail whenever possible.
New Delhi, India: One has quit her work to relocate and keeps checking mail every 20 seconds. When she gets new mail, she gets into action immediately.
London, United Kingdom: One is on a project, and is mailing us to fill in whatever details we might have missed out on her life.
Somewhere over the India Ocean (on a flight back from he Maldives): One is just getting back from her honeymoon and in her head is composing the text message that she will send out to her girls.

Less than 2 years back:
-We were all unmarried
-We were all students
-We were all in one place, under one roof, and had the same kind of lifestyles.
-We would share table, plates, cutlery, food, books, and showers.

Now:
-We have jobs
-We have husbands
-We have lives in different places
-We have routines, schedules, responsibilities.

But....
-We still talk junk.
-We are still "tuned in"
-We dont need to see each other to "connect" we just do.
-We dont even need to hear each others voices to "connect". We just do.
-We always have someone we can discuss Cosmo's "special sections" with.
-We always have someone who will give us HONEST reviews on our clothes, shoes, hair and weight.

Thank God for my girlfriends!! No one makes them like that anymore :)
Do we.... each other.. take each other.... to love and respect, for richer or for poorer, for single and for married, in bloated and in 26-inch waist thin....

I DO!!!!

The Perfect New Year

Three days to go, for a brand new year.
A brand new date.
A brand new day.
A new sunrise.
A new path I want to take.

But it is today
that's completely new

Just being here, with you.
