Folks,
As
promised, I've thought-composed-typed this Valentine Day message specially
for you guys. It may seem like a sort of poetry, but every letter is there for a
special reason. Above all, it's straight from my heart - after all, who knows my
friends better? You guys deserve something original, don't you?
Every
day of my life, you�ve made a difference,
You�ve made me feel life is special and beautiful.
I
Love You �
For
all the girls that we�ve tried chasing dangerously on my bike just because
each one of them looked cuter than the other to you; for showing me that a
friend�s house is never far, for being available 24/7 at just a phone-call
away for anything I don�t have a solution for.
For
all the colors you add to my life - be it the flowers on your workstation, or
the fabric you wear, or the forget-all-other-things-in-the-world kind of smile,
for putting up with my lengthy mails and not replying to them, or your
consistent refusal to speak to me even now, or even your stoic silence, for
showing me how tough it is to keep my words, for showing me how cruel patience
is, and above all, for not stopping me from treating you like the 1 in a
million.
For
your 1000 words-per-minute genius that comes out of your mouth that has made me
almost dumb, for all the countless nights of lengthy
arguments/brainwashes/conspiracies/consolations/debates/
discussions/plans/strategies on your rooftop, for being more stupid than me in
some things, above all for being my �chaddi-dost�.
For
having lots of great times ahead �stabilizing�
my bestest-pal-in-the-whole-world by being his chosen-one, for being an angel
which can only bring good things to the lives you touch.
For
all the criminal mind of an Adolph Hitler, for the searching eyes of a Sherlock
Holmes, for the heart of a Mother Teresa, for the thoughts of the only poet
better than me (!), for the skills of a painter, for the adventures of a Robinson
Crusoe, for the patriot of a Bhagat Singh, above all, for sharing a relation that cannot be
defined.
For
shouting at me in front of
everyone when
I had lost
our return-journey
ticket in
Mumbai and had
no money
left , for
all the
fundamentals of life,
for the never-ending
energy you display, for inspiring
me to
be forever positive, for
setting a
trend for
every Indian on
how to
be one - in the
middle of everything
western.
For
always being
the last
while trekking
since you had
to carry
lot 's of
'weight', for
being the only
one who
always advices
me like
a big brother - even though you
know I
don�t take/like them
some times,
for being
the son every
mother prays
for, for being
the brother to
your sister
like she
could've only
dreamed of, for
showing us
how to take
care of
our families.
For
being the laziest fellow I�ve ever seen apart from me, for never saying no to
anything we�ve asked for, for being the �paapu�
of your family forever.
For
boring me all the time with your CNBC analysis, for always being with me at the
canteen for the CNN(Cee-N-Njoy) network, for giving me the inside info, for the
focus and the commitment that you�ve for your family.
For
eating my head every morning at work for not coming to breakfast with you
because I wanted to go at a
�scheduled� time, for some things which I don�t regret having done
and would go back to do them all over again; but we all know everything happens for the
good.
Thank
you guys, for being with me for what I'm, not for what I'm not.
Wakeup guys,
it's finally over!
Now,
if you're still not bored, you can go back to the top;
each stanza refers to the person listed on top of this page (or in the "TO" field of
the email that got you here), in the same order.
Happy
Valentine�s Day!
