My personal thanksgiving.....

Life doesnt give you many opportunities to celebrate and be thankful for what one has. But sometimes life does show its trump card hidden up its sleeve, when you are least expecting it, shaking the floor beneath your feet. Only when you have survived this jolt, do you realise, that what's left behind after the tumult was what was worth all along. What got washed away with the tide, was never meant to be and most importantly, not worth anything at all.

And when life did show me its bitter side, i realize why i survived and this post is my acknowledgement to the fact that i have a wonderful support system - my friends. K and S, today would have been different had it not been for you two. Therez a saying "Its the friends that you can call at 4:00 A.M that matter". Well, for me, you are those friends..not only my 4 A.M. friends, but dearest and closest to my heart. And i am thankful to have you in my life. With you by my side, i guess i could survive anything :)

Thanks for everything...you guys rock !!!

Hello Meena!

What a scary and pleasant surprise to see you publish a post today!!!

And well, do notice the time I published my post at. It was around (just) 20 min before yours!

I'd written a poem after a very long time, and it just about touches upon what you've dealt with in this post.

Here (click).

Anyway, as I see it, your this post is in that intensely personal domain, so I can't comment much longer (relief??). Just good to know you've friends who stand by you. :) So, congratulations! And knowing this, assails a small doubt (and a small concern) about you. :)

Have a great time!

Take care.

@Ketan - Thanks for your comments. I would prefer to call it a pleasant surprise rather than a scary one :) And yes, i did read your poem after i saw your comment and i must say, the title of the poem did sound familiar ;-)

@Mohita - Thanks for your feedback :)
