ketki.. my angel!!

Friends with whom we have shared our sorrows and our joys become a part of our life story.
If a long time friend expires, it's as if part of your story has vanished. Ketaki was a part of my life story, my best buddy. Someone who actually was the true
definition of closeness for me. I met her in the first year of junior college. What started
off as a fight turned out to be the most prized relationship for me. I was a solitary person
till I met her. I had many friends but never could share my innermost feelings with anybody.
She was there for me during every crisis - major and minor. I would call her my crisis
manager. She understood instinctively how I felt and how to help. I knew I could call her
anytime and say "I need you, can you come?" and she would not bat an eyelid. I never felt
the slightest awkward to ask her for help. Knowing that I had her rock steady support made me feel secure. She changed college with a
promise to meet me every week. A promise she kept. She came home every Saturday evening. I
didn't need to entertain her, nor did she entertain me. It was like spending the evening on
my own- but better. She had a unique overview of my life and therefore was in a position to
give me advice. She never judged me like others did and was always honest. Two years of
understanding and ultimate loyalty. I never took it personally when we didn't talk for a
while. Because when we did get in touch nothing had changed.I realize her worth today. Even though I was a loner before I met her, I never felt so
lonely like I feel today. Life has changed ever since she's gone. But I know, even though
she's living in a different world than mine, I still can call out to her in my troubled
days. She is someone I cant ever let go. She is my support, my superstar and my best friend
always!! An angel who touched my heart truly! FRIEND-someone one likes and chooses to spend
time with u,a sympathizer,helper and supporter. But ketaki was much more than just all that.
Who was ketaki? To me she was everybody..seriously everybody!

juz back from goa!

It's a shame Goa comes burdened with a reputation for louche living, because there's so much more to it than sun, sand and psychedelia. The allure of Goa is that it remains quite distinct from the rest of India and is small enough to be grasped and explored in a way that other Indian states are not. we never try to reveal the true identity of the ever soo beautiful goa! trips to goa make me fall in love with the true beauty and the character of my native place..., not only is goa wonderful.., but the people are super human! maybe its the goan whos talkin here.. but i miss goa!! its wonderful to be called a goan.., if people actually want to see the beauty of goa i think they should visit the temples. Full of Peace and Serenity.., they define the Art of Living.
