5 people I met @ Hyderabad!

A few days ago I received a parcel from Avinash:Hyderabad. The parcel's contents:
A cheque book, A photo featuring both of us and A gift from Avinash -- its a book,,, the title read -- "The five people you meet in Heaven"

The gist of the book "All endings are also beginnings, we just don't know it all the time....." Its about the story of a maintenance worker Eddie, who dies at the beginning of the story and reportedly meets 5 people in HEAVEN. Needless to say, it 's a pure work of fiction and a thought provoking imagination. At the end of which the author does nothing but make the readers "Sit in silence"

Seconds before I read this book to completion and as you already know, I was sitting in silence--nothing but silence. Thought of calling Avinash just to drop a few words on the book and the read! To acknowledge the thought he had, when picking this book for me. But the time is odd "8:48AM", he could be anywhere, multiple chances that he could be probably busy. Bingo! Its Saturday, holiday, the chances are fare he is still at sleep. "Grrr-Grrr"

Having read about 5 people Eddie met in HEAVEN, like anyother human would do,, I started imagining the 5 people for me.

Nonetheless, I wasn't much bothered about heaven, rather at Hyderabad.

Curious to know the chosen 5,,,,OK,, Here goes the list:

1. A for Appetite :@ A for Avil

I was one amongst few hundreds who would sum up to the population & pollution of Hyderabad in search of livelihood, everyday. I knew no one, which leaves me a perfect stranger in a distant land. But the stage was well set. I met Avil and rest is ... Ha,, I won't say History,,

Against all odds of being HISTORY it was just FUNNY.

Avil, if this is you, reading this,, "Jab we met!"

2. B for Boyish :P K for "Kishore"

A tall man...Haaaaaa.. He is my project lead, an advisor, a companion, a man and finally a friend. He is high on ethics and low on... dunno. I couldn't think of any. To summarize what he taught me... 2 things.. "work while you work and play while you play", the usual PL's stuff. The other one is.. "If running away from tax could get you one more house, then what's the difference?"

Simple Kishore: 'That one house'.

Ombudsman kindly note: he already has a big house!! HA HA

Kishore, if this is you reading this... "You are the Ringmaster of Jsmtpd". What "Ringmaster" means in this context is left as an exercise to the readers.

3. C for CodeGuru,, T for Thiyaga:

He is my mentor, sitting besides me with an aura of a saint. We call him code guru. 'cz obviously he is one of the master coders and I would always expect a go from him in what ever code change I do. If he says OK! then thats it, thats the end, irrespective of whether he is right,, Its thiyaga's call! Its Thiyaga passed! Thiyaga OK! Thiyaga tested! Thiyaga reviewed! See,, so many certificates all under one banner -- Our master coder--Thiyaga! "Hi thiyaga, didn't expect this ha"

Awesome programmer and a humble human being. He always thinks he lacks an edge with girls. The truth is he hasn't tried his hands on it. A handsome guy-- "Muscularrrrrrrrrr, Popularrrrrrrr, Spectacularrrrrr,, he 's a bachelorrrrrrrr"

Now girls are aware!! Thiyaga better BEWARE!!

4. D for Duty || S for Sivaprakash:

He was my colleague first, then a business partner, a think tank and finally my room-mate. A techie by birth, a hard worker by interest, driven purely by hope and has high profile dreams. One day I'm sure he will be one of silicon valleys most admired entrepreneurs. He has planned to acquire GOOGLE by 2020 -- All the best Shiva!! His personal life is enviable...

Especially his lifestyle w.r.t DUTY. Its really HeavyDuty. If only you could understand what I mean....

Hi Shiva,, Missing those Saturday nights.. Kok-ra-ko

5. E for END!! -- S for Silent Killer:

One all listings, the last one is special! So special, the moment I thought of the 5 people, I reserved Silent Killer for last! Why?

After all,, "She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named",, of all places on earth,, played havoc with my heart!

Hey Killer,, All endings are also beginnings, we just don’t know it all the time….

Epilogue: Lessons from the "5 people I met @ Hyderabad"

Live like Kishore!

Work like Thiyaga!

Have a guy like Avinash!

've an Amazing Attitude. Remember, he is with AMAZON. He is Shiva!

Juno is now just an "Empty Place"

This post speaks about....

Juno..
What it meant for me...
Strings attached..
Places I spent time around..

an' finally,,

What happened to all of them??

Juno Online was the company I got placed in campus interview on 19th July 2006. Since that day I was abound with ideas and thoughts about life at Juno and at Hyderabad. One of my placement wishes was I must not be put up at Chennai, and when the surprise came along,, I was literally on the top of the world and instantly I know its just my cup of tea.

Approximately after an year in July 16th '07, when I entered the company, the tea tasted well. A bunch of freshers, all new faces from different parts of India,, especially from Andhra(weird ha,, yes!, may be the HR folks at Juno might have an array of logical explanation, but,,, none of us knew what) The assortment was different and the reason for which each one of us were picked was not immediately apparent,, they have a good old strategy,, but what 's the difference,,,, the place allocated for me..... It was something I didn't have the faintest idea, that I would love and will write "volumes about"...

One year and half a month since, it was on September 02 '08,,,, a strange day indeed. Reason--"my last working day". A journey well started,, has come to an end. This uncertainity too has a reason, but this 's just another string against the whole lot out there!

6th floor, Babukhans' millennium center, Somajiguda is where the company is housed. My favourite hang-out were the terrace of the building, which boasts a marvellous view of Hussain Sagar lake, Buddha statue, Jalavihar, Birla mandhir temple and Necklace road railway station. Not to mention eat street and the Necklace Road itself. This view is one of the best of images imprinted in my brain since birth. Wait!! The list is not over,,, climate too wants a role!! Its view at night time is awesome and if it rains OMG,, nothing less that mind-blowing. I had spent so many evenings at the terrace of the building,,,,,,, "alone". One place I would love to visit given a chance is definitely "Juno Terrace",,,, annnnnnn' guess who I'll take for company????

hmmmmm thats.......... nobody. Its all for the magnificent desolation the view 's gonna give. Sorry folks,, no spoilers around!!

Just think of the amount of time I would 've spent and the vast collection of thoughts that would have occurred.... I still remember,,,, when ever I climbed the roof, one thing the terrace gave me was company,, nothing but company....

I loved solitude,, an' I know the roof knew it.....

Freaked out, stressed, happy, sad, emotional, the combination of the above.. whatever, the vastness of the terrace was always there, just waiting for me, but now....... its just an empty place...

I once commented, "If Juno Terrace is my workstation, then Hussain Sagar is the wall paper". Now I could feel it,, Its a comment well said and not to be forgotten...

Too many to tell,,,, my chair besides Thiyaga, the cafetaria, the conferance hall, the discussion room, the tt table, lotus pond, frankie shop, shopping mall and traffic jam....oh,,
Now when I look back, they are now just an empty place.....

having left the place,,
i can only think of those days,,
there 's no solace
either ways,, its missing my face,,,
Juno is now just an empty palce...

:(

A Bookish Kinship!!!

In 1st week of September'08 around an hour for noon, my GTalk status read "A Bookish Kinship", why was that? The reason behind that is quite interesting, and there was also a surprise waiting for me at the end of the day to match the status.

There was a kiddo among the freshers, he joined Juno this July. Ya, a kiddo!! Ofcourse he is not really a kid, but that is what I used to call him. He is Shiv.

It was today I got Shiv a book, a classic to be precise. "The Tale Of Two Cities". I did not tell him I got a book for him. I just thought I'll give him when I leave for the day. He usually doesn't mail me, but today I got a mail from him an' the mail read, "I've got a book for you -- The Alchemist". SURPRISE!!! I responded," I too 've got one for you!!! :D"

But I was in an intention of gifting the book for him, while I wasn't clear about his. I jus went to his place and I gifted him the classic. As he gave me "The Alchemist", I was reluctant to pick it up..[34,000 Feet]* I resisted it and somehow I managed to get off from him without the book.

Then I felt bad and replied to the mail saying that, "There wasn't really any problem in accepting the book, but I'm leaving Hyderabad tomorrow and you may not get it back"

His reply was something worth mentioning, "May be we did not get enough time to get along with each other, but this book could be one perfect momento I could give you". Ya, he was right, his intentions were clear.

Then I said, "Its OK! Sign the book an' give it to me! I 'll accept it" I liked this guy already and this incident created a new dimension to our relationship.

A kinship which could be attributed to the books we exchanged. Whatelse do you call this but "A Bookish Kinship"??.

The second surprise!

It was the previous day around 9PM @ Crosswords a big-book shop in CITI-Center, Banjara Hills, while I purchased "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", I saw a book called "Business, the ultimate resource". The book was besides the billing counter, when I was in the queue awaiting my turn. The book caught my sight just by its sheer appearance. Certainly Big enough to catch ones eyes.

I asked the storekeeper to get me the book just for a look. The moment I looked at it I knew this is the book I'm gonna need for my business. But I know, as I'm leaving Hyderabad once for all in a couple of days, carrying it would be a really tough nut to crack,,

its such a big book probably 1.5 times the biggest Dictionary you have ever seen

,, IMAGINE! So I thought I would either purchase it in Coimbatore or through Amazon and half-heartedly left the place. :(

"Enough of flash back".

Lets get back to today!

As I'm about to leave Juno the next day, my team was desperate to get me a gift which I would like, but the problem was they wanted to give me cash. Being a team governed by a very practical PL, Jsmtpd puts egos & formalities aside and does first things first while focusing on the results. Anyways they wanna present me something, why not cash? But I on the other hand, being an adamant, sentimental idiot,, couldn't settle for this. I felt that getting cash for a gift is nothing but a formality.

So the team deceided to buy out something for me! For me alone!!!

I said I want the book "Business-The ultimate resource". So you guys could get me that an' I sent them the Amazon link to the book.

That evening we(Thiyaga, Avinash, me and Sharath -- "A rare combo") visited Walden to purchase gifts for Kishore(My PL) for completing 5 years. As the purchase is done, we decided to get my gift too.

But "fortunately" that book wasn't there.

Why is it "fortunately"?? The answer follows.. As there 's no other way we decided to visit "Crosswords" in CITI-Center, the place where I saw the book to make the purchase. The real scene was here.

We got the book and the cashier said the cost of the book is 2000 INR, but I remember very well that there 's a discount on this book. Its not magic but the other day the one at the counter, who fetched the book for me said that this one costs 1600/-. But the cashier wasn't ready for the discount, he said what the computer says is final.

And what will the computer say,, it just said 2000/-.

Now its Thiyaga's turn. He boastfully snapped at the cashier,

"Get us a fresh copy then!"

Though the one right in front of us was as fresh as a new born. Inevitably store keeper ordered his attendant for a fresh piece. After all, the first of all works of a storekeeper is to bend to rubbish requests of mad customer like us, who demand a new book against a new book. He got the so called fresh copy. Nevertheless, this one is special,, neatly packed,, with a small yellow sticker on the top right of it, which read:

50% OFF
Original Price: Rs. 2000
Our Price:       Rs. 999

Before the cashier could realise what has happened, we started celebrating with Hooooos & Heyyyyyys, cheering and creating a mess around that place like the craziest of monkeys the world has ever seen -- in a book shop of course. LOL :@

Poor fellow, what else can he do? He billed the book at 999/-. We walked away happily.

Despite the fact it was my last day at Hyderabad,, it was one the best days!!! It was this book I wished for and there were these guys who got it for me! So this incident attaches a new string for our relationship an' do remember it 's 'coz of a book and 'coz of a book after all. Have read this so far, now tell me,, should I change the status??

:D

A forgotten letter from gmail drafts...

It was around 12 Noon,, got bored of the usual stuff @ office,, moved by the desperation, I just thought of a mail box clean-up,, while I was busy thrashing around 200+ items in my spam folder,, my drafts showed me 2 items.. I was curious and when I opened the folder I was taken aback when I found these two letters, which I wrote long back and haven't posted... Just felt like sharing it with you,,, coz I believe sharing alleviates...

This is a *verbatim* copy of the letter to my friend named Neethu (She 's my,, not exactly but a childhood friend) By natures design,, or simply destiny,, she fell in love with someone,, an' obvious we are no longer as close as we used to be,, I authentically dunno what exactly made me write these two letters, but it certainly must have been painful...

Gmail did not have the date of the second letter (the recent one, at the top here) and the subject read:

A letter to Neethu!!! "A part of my experiments with emotions."

##

Hi Neethu,

Its not long since we spoke, but I don think I should really care about the timelines of our communication to post a mail to you.

I saw a movie "Finding Neverland", it was a wonderful play and I wish you should also watch that movie. Thats just a sentimental act, you might like it as I did.

Movies like this makes me think of my past, the family I've been brought up, with no sentiments, no affection, no care, no relationship, no celebrations, nothing of that sort. A moment to cherish, to think of, to boast about, hu hu. All I could remember is loads of the so called family problems, a vast array of them, which i couldn't explain, and which could not be explained.

And finally the truth...

A journey into my own self reveals why, why? I'm like me. I'm scared about my future Neethu. Having seen all this in life, I actually dunno, whether this will continue, in my life to come too... I dunno whether my Angel would give such care, an attachment, an' be a real angel. As I've built up so much hope an' expectations upon her, I wonder whether anyone could really live up to the mark, to make it real.

I've always wanted my life to resemble a Play or a Movie. Short-lived, memorable, full of joy and of course like a fairy tale. But the truth is Movies are Movies and even a thought about living life like a movie is ridiculous.

Maybe I should stop imagining things of that sort an' get ready for something more real.

Hi Neethu,

I dunno why, i felt like sending this to you. Nothing serious about it, some thoughts to ponder.

There were times when you have given me so much happiness, and times you have made me feel sad too. I this letter i wish to share with you somethings which i have not shared with you so far. Jus a sample. There are so many other things which I would never tell you anyways. This letter is not gonna change anything, but could give you some insight about our relationship from my perspective.

Lemme first tell you about the times when you made me feel sad.

Once I was telling you about what makes my Angel, Angel. An' your response was such that I was a lunatic blabbering about something useless.  But that made me sad. I will tell you something Neethu, I 'm a "sentimental Idiot". For me life is different from most ppl. around me, I have my own definitions of everything starting from Lies to Living. When I tell ppl. I'm gonna resign my job, gonna be someone in CBE, they think I'm mad. Money has failed to gemme happiness, though I know a little is essential for a living at least. I'm telling this to you b'coz now you told me not to take what ever you tell me seriously, Ok then how am I to take your replies??

There is one other time, you made me feel bad. I was telling you about the features of a human Face, I don't remember about who's. Then I told you to look at the way the teeth in Ronaldino's face has been drawn. But the way you responded, that wasnt what i expected. I did not expect you to praise me, but I certainly do not expect a criticism either. Do you know I have drawn fewer then 6 to 7 portraits an' now they are with ppl. whom I thought would love it. Even now I think you are one of my much cherished ppl., maybe the better of them all. But I wanna let your self know I am not so good at deciphering what you actually mean. So try to respond emphatically to anyone whom you talk to.

If possible send me a pic. of the portrait. It was the last of my portraits since then, an' i wish to look at it once.

I live by thinking about the past and those are the things which make me so happy and so sad too. I guess you know about my sad part, though i haven't shared with you my entire story. The memories once created never fade, i know its true with almost all of us. But I used to think of them a lot. In my recent visit to chennai, when I walked in the corridors of Bala's house I remembered we both getting out of the auto about half past one at night. How am i to forget it???

[Track: Bombay theme music]

(About the track, when ever i write my diary i used to have similar entries about the song which was playing while I was writing, an' used to note it whenever it changes, that habit, I personally thought the current track reflected my mood :D)

I felt the mercilessness of time, it has become 3 months since. But i was so happy for having spent that night with you.

Later when i got into his house i had a vivid imagination, which even now i have as i compose this letter, you sitting in the hall, in the morning as we had coffee, an' as small chit-chat. These are something which keeps me going. So many of them. I still remember

[Track: Kadhal rojavae]

we were traveling together to Mahabalipuram. I was as the helm of joy, coz i wanted to travel atleast three hours, an' wasn't very much interested in some park, as i m fond of traveling, then being in some place roming around. I have always had a feeling that traveling is only thing which could keep ppl. close  enough, for a long time, then anything else.

Thanks for being with me. For bringing into my life an episode, which is so so so good, filled with happiness. Do you know my aim of living is to make myself into a book, which has so many such episodes.

[Track: Newyork nagaram]

The night you went to pilani, an' you called me after a long time you reached there, i was mad whether you reached safely. An' was scanning through orkut profiles of your friends to find a number to call you to make sure, that you reached safe.

I have had so many ppl in my life, some ppl. real sensitive and charming, whom i have missed forever without a word then. You are one of them. The last but not the least.

Daniel! we fail to accept the truth, most of the times.

This is real. You are to leave me someday. That is true. We were only friends, that s true.

Now you are gone.

[Track: or' vennilae Movie: Kadhal Desam]

But you are into a relation in which you have something to look forward to. I'm happy it happened. Sometimes I feel that i m the one who made you take this decision. Have fun. Be emotional, be human, be a girl, at least to him. Make him happy. "Small boy"

I go nuts at times, you have been with me for so long, an' you should have figured it by now, that this letter is the outcome of one such time. Ha ha. "Empty cup."

I could give you one worthy advice, "Trivial things are the ones which brings most happiness."

Trivial,
Sowdri.

for the first time...."The Unsaid" speaks...

This is a excerpt from "The Unsaid" dated "01st August '08'. Whats "The Unsaid"??? Its what I call my diary... There 's so much I wish to tell, but couldn't... just because I don want to tell,, or it could hurt the feelings of the intender,, or they have hurt me, an' its my turn,, or its so senti,, or personal,,, or something fishy... whatever... "The unsaid holds the unsaid"

I started out writing my resignation letter in my diary, but ended up with a letter to my PL. Dunno why, I "Loose control" whenever I write something in it,,, One thing for sure it has become one thoughts garbage, nonetheless I love it... 'coz that the only true reflection of my inner self...

"Verbatim copy"

Letter of resignation:
This is my first resignation, and its difficult.

Dear K******,

Thank you for giving me the oppertunity for working @ JUNO. I had been in JUNO since one year. And I could always say these were the best days of my life. Everybody would have a dream job, I don remember whether I had one, but now I wish, I had ever had one, then it should have been Juno and the work Jsmtpd.

"I'll always look back as I walk away,..This memory will last for eternity..."~Westlife

Sagarius was in my dreams since college. But then it was a joke. Now I could feel the excitement in me, as the days are few and as a matter of fact, it has already begun.

I would always say what I'm today is because of so many ppl. I have met in the journey of life. If I ever prepare a list of "The most influential ppl. in my life" its no wonder you will be ~~~. I've so many friends, a few of them are old too. The way they made entries in into my life and its subsequent influence on my attitude has made scars, which would last a life time. You are perhaps one of the best.

<one paragraph removed,, 'coz jus like that i don wanna put it here...>

I don't know why I write this letter to you. I always visualize life in different angles, to tell the truth, its all in my mood. If I'm happy I would say "Life is a time pass", bored then "Life is all about a grl friend and I don't have one" when I'm in need of money/see poor people, then I would think life 's all about making money. But amongst this, I've always visualized life as nothing but "relationships", a time pass but a meaningful one-a time pass with ppl. I love to be with.

This letter is just an outcome of one such mood.

I wish to be happy as I'm. But I dunno whats waiting for me out there. I'll definitely miss you all and will seize any opportunity to meet you folks.

Thanks for being my m***** (this word could hurt someone else)

CEO Sagarius (Jus kidding) LOL :)
##END

PS: I did not give this letter to him,,, This blog was intended to be anonymous but I dunno,,,

So far no one has read my diary,,, I thinking of letting another one to read it,,, but anyways I guess it doesn't matter who,, for you....

Life for me is...

Abraham Lincoln, the famous American Icon remarked, "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." A bit confusing, ha?

TIME Man of the century, Albert Einstein, feels , “Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death” . India!!! You need a headmaster like him.

For James Dean, American motion picture actor, a symbol of rebellion, “Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.” He must have certainly feared death.

For Charles R. Swindoll, American Writer and Clergyman,

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”

Habba!!! He must have been a nut. You read it fully??? Search Google for “A book on Attitude by a Crack”, who knows he might top the list. And I swear I dunno this guy.

For a Devdas, “It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.” No comments, he is already sad.

An Optimist would say, “Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Hu! Hu! Mudialae!!!

Opportunist, “Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” . Why trouble, put it the other way around, “Drink tea, while its still hot.”

Egoist, “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” . Sorry Boss, Time up!

...

...

Finally for me, “Life is a huge time pass.”

Can anybody help???

LOL :D

Love Actually!!!

This is for no one.

It was today I watched a wonderful movie, Love Actually, which took me to those days, those wonderful days, those days of love, those days of life, those days filled with emotion, of course the nights of dreams, nights of thoughts, nights of imagination, those made me suffer from insomnia. Isn't it beautiful to love and to be loved.

I enjoyed the movie--bursting out with laughter, silently smiling, clapping... I wished I should have seen this movie with a drink. A chilled beer would have done the trick. Yet Perfect!!!

Lately I had been strangled by thoughts, which I was desperate to share with someone. Its all about....... LOVE. No no, it has nothing to do with a girl anymore. Its all about me. As I couldn't find someone, I m here. Hopping no one who knows me reads this, makes a fun of this, makes a sympathetic inquiry about this.

"Let the God save the king, keep the demons out, the secret be guarded."

Lets jump-in then....

What do I love?? Was I ever in love?? How was it then?? Did ppl. ever loved me??

I love friends, people, novels, movies, songs, work an' above all pondering about the past. "Shared memories". The last one being a curse.

Ya. I was in love. That was while I was at college, life was wonderful. No work, no deadlines, no worries, that too clubbed with a girl by your side, OMG thats what one would ever long for. Then I would say "Life is Beautiful", wouldn't I?? Its a pretty good story though. The finest part being we never proposed, but we both knew that is it. Days slowed down. Waiting days together for a single phone call, to my friend's mobile of course, planning accidental meetings, all this trauma was in fact lovely, doest make me tired. Puzzled. Though I was at college, she was at school, about 100 miles apart. "Isn't cursed a soul, which s teared into to two an' put miles apart". But the happiness was overwhelming. I thought we were just perfect. No cell phones those days, no SMS, no email, no GTalk. Haaaaaa, How the hell am I to talk to her then?? Imagine. But we were not taken aback, not by absurd nuances of technology, not like this. Hu hu. Here comes the trick... I wrote "inland letters" :D Pretty old-fashioned ha?? I still have a treasure trove of it in my safe. But the saddest part, hmmm, she has left me behind, not only me, but the memories too. The days we had, the dreams we shared, whatever. I dunno why she left me, I didn't ask her why, 'coz i don wanna know why. I never read those letters again, save one Valentines Day, about two years ago, read one line, merely one line, beyond which -- truth be told, I couldn't. I just couldn't.

Anyways the damage is already done.

Makkalae!!! "Think twice before you love", 'coz you will never know whether your other half still thinks of you, still loves you, still bangs his head for you, even after you dump him. Mad I've become with this useless piece of advice.

Having loved already, doesn't I know love is all about "just falling" and not "thinking".

Did someone else ever loved me again?? Did I loved any of them back??

...

Thats a secret!!!

Love is for everyone.

"Live fast, die soon, leave a beautiful corpse behind!! Meanwhile take some time to love."

Thats b'coz while browsing through the profiles sometimes i would stumble upon some interesting profile,,, and when i look into her scrapbook, which 'll obviously contain 2000+ scraps already, will be full of "HI"s and "Shall we be frns", though even i was there for that, I don like the theory of 'Natural Selection', i ll jus back-offf.......... Anywayz whats that have to do now with me getting back to it,, Never in an expectation it will work for me now.....

My watch shows Its Feb 13 abt 11:12 pm, the usual feeling,, i have faced similar situation before, but today is much better, thought of jus visiting an old frn. Dropped in.

"Mine is not a heart without a hole" yet i would always like to

"Take a picture of Wht i think Love looks like in my imagination, filled with emotion, full of strange sensation, as it is my own creation, where there s no discrimination, blessed with devotion, And its where i found LOVE."

Its only where though new, feels like home...

Wake up folks!!!

When i get back to my senses,
It doesn't make much sense....

Non-sense.

...
Love is like heaven,,, But it can hurt like hell...
