When your mother never broke up with you..... .

Remember the time you were annoyed with your best friend/ boy friend/girl friend when they forgot your birthday or didn't call you sharp at 12 in the night? Or when they didn't come on time? Or when they didn't call you for too many days? Do you remember how it felt on being cheated and your trust being broken into a million pieces by someone you thought was so close to you? Or when you got the feeling of being useb by the person with whom you shared your books, bags, clothes, food. Remember when someone refused to return the money you lent them and constantly gave excuses. Or when you gave someone advice because you cared and all they did was say that you were a mere interference. Do you remember ow hurt and angry you were at that moment? How your ego came into picture and you swore never to do anything for ungrateful people! We broke relations because there wasn't much to gain from them.

Have you ever thought about the time you might have never really wished your mother at 12 in the night! Or that you have mercilessly cancelled any outings with your mother just because your best friend called at the last minute... Have you ever called up your mother from college/work to ask if she ate lunch and inquire as to what she was doing to pass time? How you ever noticed how many times you must have lied to your mom and broken her trust. How many times we must have ignored her concerns and advice simply because we claim she doesn't understand even without listening what she has to say in the first place. Have you ever realised that your mother never let her ego or even self respect come in the way when she loved you??

We are so busy in loving people who will not be us forever, we love them enough to prevent them from going away.... have we ever thought of loving those who gave us life? who had sleepless nights just because we couldn't sleep, who worked hard, never went to malls an cinemas so they could save up every penny in giving us a comfortable and easy life!Many of us feel our parents embarass us in front of our friends. Have we ever wondered how many times we might have shit in our pants, wet our beds, puked and cried in public? Our parents never left us. They never broke up with us. No matter what we do we can never replay them....it's time that we are atleast grateful . love you MOM!!!!

The measure of closeness!!!

I smiled when i saw you smiling, it always felt nice. It made me realize that we are so close to each other, that we share so much in the little time we've been together. It's quite surprising that i find myself happy when i see that you are smiling, may be because i love your smile. But it is a pleasant feeling to know that when i gain no real happiness from it, still just your happiness gives me immense pleasure. This is wonderful, but that's not all. There have been moments when i have been moved to tears just because you were upset. That is when i realized, the true measure of a relation is by the tears you shed, not from your eyes, but from your heart; the tears shed when i didn't have anything to lose but the mere thought of a lovely smile being wiped from your face , erases my smile too. While many claim to be close and even share sorrow, i have felt the exact you feel. That is the measure of CLOSENESS......

When EVERYONE was right......

For most of us a fight is ensured simply when one is right and the other is wrong. It is challenging to convince someone that they are wrong, specially if the opponent is a head strong person. But such challenges can be tackled, with sufficient convincing power and persuasive skills, it is definitely possible to accomplish this task of ending an argument. the most challenging form of a relationship is WHEN EVERYONE IS RIGHT ! It's a impossible feat to choose either side, or douse the fire in this case. What we seldom realize is, no matter how right we are, ultimately it's the relation that suffers. It's not always about being right. What will one achieve by being right, if in the process of proving oneself correct, one loses the person to whom he wanted to do right! Ego is a very small word, but has shaken millions of relations. That is the power of this mere three letter word, which sometimes shadows our vision. Many of us choose to use this as an excuse to justify our acts. If only people valued sentiments that two people share than their individual sentiments. The day individual sentiments start gaining value, it is the death of the relation. When we die what would you choose to take back with you.... that, that you were always RIGHT, or that you chose to be wrong and have a loved one by your side????
