RE: What would you do...
I never knew my previous post would be liked by so many. When my classmate Manju read this, she replied to me with answers to the questions. Manju's friend deepthy also replied with answers. I've attached the mail that I got. The black lines are mine, blue ones are Manju's and the purple ones are Deepthy's.
Manju's friend Shiju personally mailed me saying that the lines have a lot of meaning and it was good in reading. Thanks to all. I was so excited and your words have been truly inspirational.

I will try to find out the good in those bad memories.
Even if they are unpleasant, I treasure memories about you.

I will cry then, better.

This is one answer I liked most in her mail.
What would you do when someone you loved has forgotten you, but you have forgotten to forget the one?
I will be proud of my sincerity in relations.
This is something I could have never thought off. You cannot guess what I felt understanding what she meant. This was truly inspirational and to be frank, yesterday after reading this mail, I smiled from the depth of my heart. Manju, you made me understand how to turn a negative attitude into a positive one. You are such a great human. I'm glad that we are friends.
