Feeling blessed! My first post couldn't have come on a better day. I owe tomorrow to a special someone:) Someone whose made my life happier by just being in it. I wouldn't call ours an ideal friendship. It would make it too plain & insignificant. For people who didn't really acknowledge each other for three years in the start, I would say we have a long long way! It's been a decade since that changed. So what really changed things ? To be honest it's a pretty hideous explanation;) or should i say a completely out of the world reason! "CRICKET"! Yes you heard it right. We even joke about saying " Cricket is like our friendship God:D". That certain someone is the reason i am a cricket lover or to be more precise a cricket freak (as my family calls me:P). In the long list things that I owe it to that special someone, the most important would be Rahul Dravid!! The reason i even knew him was her. She gave me an inspiration in life , the only inspiration if i should say. Thank you for tat:) We were never the text book best friends. No offense, but i hate the text book kind. ( Reason: Blame it on her:D) People around us might even fail to recognize that we are friends , let alone best friends. We share everything but we still are our own individuals. We have our own bubble, but doesn't mean we live only in that bubble. What matters is ' Being there for each other when needed' & that is our own little promise, which is unlikely to even be shaken! Being a really closed individual, i needed someone to break through my facade & see the real me!! She was the first to do it & was also the reason why I have a few really close friends now. Had it not been for her, I would have always been 'just-a-friend' & never the 'best friend' or even the 'good friend'. Thank you for tat:) We have had our share of cliched BFF talks;) topping tat list would be cricketers! Shamelessly we have spoken for hours and hours about them! They might have started out as a little girl's crush but turned out to be our greatest inspirations. All the strength i show is because I have an emotional support system in her. Always been the patient listener. I have rambled many a times...might have been very silly too, but not once has she snapped. Thank you for giving me that non-judgmental-space! I can never let things slide. I am a stuck up like that. Had it not been for her I would have remained like that forever.Thank God!!!! Over the last five years, our friendship has gone to a different understanding & we have come a long way as individuals. Being an adolescent is never easy. It's the toughest phase & I am not sure if I would have been able to do it alone! All those overwhelming emotions, confusions & doubts...*sigh* .But in the end i laugh about it & say " I wouldn't change a thing if i had to do it all over again":D We are going to be a thousand miles away in a year but that's not going to stop us from being there for each other! Physically being there is trivial when u cant support someone emotionally. Many many years down the lane we would be still those dumbass-cricket freak-best friends talking about how smart a 60 year old Dravid or a Ganguly looks;) It's a P
romise that's written in our soul! Always and Forever<3
Thank You Sowmya:)
