Do Dreams die?

Do dreams really die? If I can recollect my great childhood days aka my wonder years, I was a dreamer! Always dreamt of becoming famous, famous and more famous. I wanted to be a great artist, a charming story teller.

Dreams at that time seem achievable as you are an innocent soul pure and away from all the corrupt things, and in my case destiny was also favoring my dreams. I was learning classical music, participating in school dramas, writing poems, article and stories that were recognized and appreciated. I was on cloud nine, everybody in school at that time knew me. Those were the best days of my life.

Suddenly one day I realized that I should focus more on studies as I have to become an engineer, probably a software engineer. I changed track, my focus was not that strong, but I never bothered, and eventually I became a software professional.

How the heck I became software professional? I wanted to be something else, then what am I doing in software industry for the past four years.

Is it because my childhood dreams were destined to die? or Is it because that my dreams were not meant to be materialized? I really don't know!

So, what is stopping me to dream new dreams as my childhood dreams are now dying or have already got buried. I really don't have answers to all those questions, but one thing, that I believe in is someday I have to start dreaming again, and it seems that time has come, for me to do that.

Friendship Is Like

A song that your soul sings every day! Friendship day is special, at least for me, as I have few great friends and I thank God that they are in my life. Thanks to my buddies that make my every day special whether they are with me or not.

So, I have best friends, and among them I have a special friend! Why special? because he can make me feel happy and great whenever I think of him. He is like me, um, not exactly, he is smart, girls just love him and to some extent a bit cute. So how can he is like me? The answer, I really don't know..... but still I believe he is like me. One thing is sure that I want him to be my best friend all my life, so that even if we are far away making the life to work for us, just by remembering him will make me happy.

Will our life will again give us a chance to meet and be together? I don't know, but all I know that he has done enough for me than I can ever imagine. I treasure his friendship, his support and the way he always remind me that I am also his special friend in his own distinctive ways!

The day he was leaving, we cried, I for losing my shelter for comfort and security to abandonment. Why can't a friend be like wristwatch, you take it wherever you go and never miss to check it. When he went I thought that my happiness is gone, but I was wrong! he still makes me happy, I just have to think about him, or talk about him with others.

Life is strange, it can surprise you before you plan to surprise it. I know that we all have to go through unimaginable, but he wasn't ready for that, but I have faith in him that he is going to surprise his life, and I am waiting for that day.


Right now none of my great friends is with me, that makes me sometime a bit creepy, and in that creepiness I tend to get bouts of anger, specially when something happens which I was not expecting at all, and the weired thing is that at that moment, I want to enjoy being creepy. I cannot guarantee that its not going to happen again, but I'll try to avoid hitting others with it like recently did with my special friend. My special friend may not know that but at the end I have to come back to him for support and shelter.



My friend is such a pure soul that wherever he'll go he is going to get love and friendship with abundance, but may be I'll not get a chance to meet other one like him. I feel so proud in saying that I am his friend, may be, a good friend.


So, on this very special friendship day, I thank him for being always there for me. Hope never to miss you again :-)


Happy Friendship Day!
