do you believe that the people in your life are there for a reason? and so is the case with the ones that aren't there are also there for a reason? I do...
I've been thinking a lot of the people in my life...the ones that are still there, some I've grown closer to, some I've kept at arm's length. Some have amazed me by what they can do with their lives, taught me lessons on how to follow your heart and be brave....some have taught me the same lessons with examples of what not to do....
i told K this morning that i would have broken in mind and spirit many times in life, if he wasn't by my side. and today was one of the days when i truly thanked god for his presence..... he's been my pillar of strength, my fiercest ally and most honest critic. there are times when only he has the balls to tell it like it is and although at that moment i may feel like crushing his head, i'd not have it any other way!
the friends who call me beautiful when i want to cry after getting onto the weighing scales, the ones who tell me i can do anything i ever want to .... the ones who encourage me, silently and with gentle chiding.... the ones who will grow old with me and always be there in my life no matter which part of the world we live in....
the ones who with their nastiness and highhandedness made me rejoice that i am not them....the ones who taught me how great it is to be humble, which doesnt necessarily mean that you are a doormat, the ones who have made me thank my upbringing and everything else that doesnt make me fake or false....
the ones who have truly earned my admiration and respect, the ones who lost it because their masks fell, they all make my life richer...thank you!

I definitely believe that the people in your life are there for a reason. And I believe that everything happens for a reason. Whenever I can't think of what that reason is, it just means I'm not thinking hard enough.
such an honest post Arundati. Keep close only those who matter the most & who are truthful, at all times - good or bad. :)
...I wonder why, though I met you just twice (where the second one doesn't even count, in my reception), I kinda miss you already.
