Then, the thunder rambled on and on and on........

The sun raises up lazily, peeks its small head while kissing the sea. The angry sea moves away getting the fierce sun rolling up. The clouds decide not to move and plonk onto the glittering sky. I can see the sun still trying to peek through the clouds. Then, the clouds give way. Thousands of glittering raindrops fall to the earth. Like softly floating dewdrops, they fall. Covering the earth with their mist, they drench everything in sight. The sun remains an elusive small glow behind enormous clouds that give no indication of letting go. I could imagine the rain gods dancing, while pouring the water down on earth. I rush to the terrace to catch a glimpse of this beautiful weather. Instead I catch a glimpse of a poor man, half clothed and shivering, with a tea cup in hand. He doesn’t seem to realize that his hot tea is being adulterated by the huge drops of rain falling from his broken dirty umbrella. He just sat there and kept sipping his watery tea. And then I realized. He dint seem to not notice. He chooses not to notice it. A throng of school boys who were trying to wade their way through a puddle danced at the prospect of not having to explain at home why they got back dripping wet. A group of pigeons sat on top of the next building, cuddled together, and one could see only when they moved, that they were trying to protect their young ones from the harsh cold weather. All around one could see a sea of black, blue, and white dots dancing away. They seemed to be following some sort of a pattern. I realize, it’s the pattern drawn by the users of those umbrellas. The trees looked greener, and the roads looks muddier, the sky looked grey and I wished I could fly far far away….. I would love to go out in this shimmering rain, jiggle a leg, go back home, change into warm, just ironed clothes, eat hot hot sambar vadai. I cant help thinking a nice warm mug of chocolate would also go down well. Actually all one would want rite now is just a plate of vetta kozhambu sadam with vendakai and potato roast. (slurp slurp) and snuggle into a warm cozy bed and cuddle up (with pillows only) and drift into dreamland.
And now having successfully taken your mind off work, I shall quietly go have a cup of warm tea, put my feet up (literally) and do some work.
Adios

Careless Whispers in the Wind.......

This is actually a rip off from something i read somewher, but it inspired me to do this stil. As a first time blogger with absolutely no experience in writing, pls put up with my writing. And oh, do leave you comments.

Names without Lines, Memories without borders....
Every single person who has entered my life has made a difference. Good or Bad. and its amazing how each of them can kindle a special memory in your heart everytime you think of them. Like a song thats special and has meanings only you and your heart can decipher.
I have attempted to chalk out the various people who have walked thru my life and ensured it made a mark. I may have not done full justice, but like i said, pardon me, its my first blog!
try and figure out which of this is you!!!!!!! :)


A) I understand you so well that it surprises me every time. You are so unlike any normal guy I know and am soooo proud I know you. You are very special and all you have to do is think of me and I’ll be there for you. You may be years older than me. However, I feel like protecting you from this big bad world. You deserve soooo much more than what you might want and I shall be here ensuring that you do get it. I may meet you after ages but I still feel like I know wats been happening with you. I love your suprises and I love your concern. Never change and keep smiling or be rest assured I’ll blaze the earth to put that smile back on you

B) Certain people have the effect of making your day better by just being there. You are one! Of course, its completely different thing that you can be the grumpiest grouch ever ;) You’re mistaken for a lotta things most of the time. But luckily, people who know you really well know who you really are. You are caring, charming, goofy, moody, talented, sensitive, and sweet. So irrespective of what you think people may think of you, don ever change. Hard outside, soft inside, you are extremely sensitive and that makes everyone around you wanna protect you. Thanks for being you. Love you

C) Known you the longest of all my best friends, and know you the best of all my friends. I know every single thing bout you that most people wont and am so proud of it. Been there for you helping you keep up your spirits and your ambition when everybody else was letting you down. Been there when you had girlfriends, broke up, cribbed bout being single, cribbed bout your family, got another girlfriend, and went on and on and on. And in al this, I never fluttered wit my love for you. You are definitely special to me and I’ll ensure I remain so. The only one who has stayed with you the longest and never hurt you even once (as quoted by you :)). Yes am proud of it, just as how I’m very proud of you.

D) Lol…. Am definitely one special girl in your life. (I can almost hear you puking) but I know I am. Cant think of a lotta girls who have known you as long as I do. A hunk in all respects, except when you open your mouth. Its amazing how I never feel outta place with you. Its amazing how I never feel like I need to look good or act well around you. Its amazing how I’m just me when with you. You’ll accept me the way I am. And irrespective of how much you crib bout me and how much you avoid me, and how much you hate me and how much you can’t stand me, trust me… u’ll miss me when I’m gone ( if I’m ever gone tat is). And yes, irrespective of what you think, I am a women, even thought you’ll never treat me like one ;)

E) Ideal example for looks can be deceiving. Intelligent, patient, understanding, you define what a “friend” means. You can carry a thousands secrets with you and people around will never know it. And with the weight of the whole world on you, you’ll still bring a cheer onto other’s life. You deserve the best and only the best and you’ll reach great heights. And you’ll still hold out your hand for people around you when you’re there. Irrespective of the time and distance, you keep in touch. You know exactly what to say, when to whom and how to say it. You do not say politically correct things, you just speak your heart. And that is why your special. And when you wanna spit out a secret, you know wher to look rite?!?!?

F) The person who has influenced me the most. You were there at a time when I thought I really dint need anyone else. And you were there when I really dint have anyone. Its another fact that you dumped me when I wanted you the most. But thank god I grew outta that. I’ve been replaced and am glad you’re happier now. You have been the best friend ever, and been the worst person too. We have been through sooo much that I doubt if anyone else will know me as much as you do. Or should I say I wont know anyone else as much as I know you. I may find a million men, but I’ll never find a friend like you. Am so glad things stayed good between us. And am gonna bug you for the rest of your life, so stop praying I’ll vanish.

G) Assertive, perky, hyper, quick to anger, quick to cool down, quick to cry, and even quicker in making one smile. You are the best friend anyone can get. And I’m glad and lucky I knew you before college. Four years would have definitely not passed if I dint have you to survive. Older than me, you definitely behave like a kid still (I know you hate anyone saying that). You are very level headed and you believe in dreams you trust people with your heart and still believe in love and all this makes you unique. thanks for being there. Love you

H) A reflection of me, my partner in crime, almost my sister, my guide, my mentor what not? I’ll put plans to meet up almost every week and it’ll never happen. I’ll plan on calling you everyday, again I don do it. But ironically whenever anything happens you are the first one who comes to know, and I know it’s the same there. Irrespective of how many people come and go, you will remain that most special person you are. And irrespective of the time, distance etc, your mood definitely affects mine. and beware, no one can stop me from coming and plonking my ass on your house after your married and gone too.

I) You are certainly the only person who got into my close circle this fast. I’m quite slow in accepting people. But I dint even bother thinking when you walked into my life. Extremely methodological, its amazing how you even put up with me. My day doesn’t pass if I don talk to you atleast once. And amazingly I’ll open up to you quite easily. Not many people can boast of knowing what all happens in my day everyday. You can. Smart, open, frank, absolutely no one else can get away with the comments you make bout me. Cos am not gonna let anyone else get that specialto me. You are special. Extremely special. And I wont let anyone treat you any other way

J) Technically, I’ve known you the longest. Somehow, I missed knowing you in the years in between. Dunno if it was for the good or bad. But I do know that, in the time I spent wit you, you have left quite a deep footprint. ;) A typical representative of your sun sign. You'll never let me know the cause of the creases on your forehead. You can irritate me with you mood swings, you can annoy me by tripping on me badly, you can be as insensitive as a rock, and can still mean the world to me. You are the only one who can take me to heights, drop me in a second, and (hopefully) hold me when I fall. Thanks for being there when I needed you. Thanks for putting sense into my head Thanks for putting up with me no matter what I said when, wher and how. I know am special. And I would love to remain so. And be there irrespective of the various people who can move in and out of your life !!!


There are definetly more people who have made a difference. But these are definetely in the top 10. If you do know which alphabet is you, leave a comment :)
