The last three days of my life have been really memorable. Maybe its because I spent them with three women who have been really close with me. We met, we watched movies, we danced in the rains, we had cutting chai, we conversed and we spent time doing absolutely nothing productive (But then again, its really important doing nothing after a day of hard work ;). If god couldn't be on earth all the time, he did a really good job by creating women. What is so special about women that they seem to have an affectionate aura about themselves?. They act as healers, lovers, mothers and home-makers. Women defiantly fill up our lives with security, compassion, love and respect. I remembered a line said by one of my female friends who I had met during the course of these three days. She told me, "Jagdish, you need to understand that a women make your dull house into a home. A man might be out in the wild trying to make a living for himself and his family, but when he comes home tired and haggard of worldly stress, it is a women who makes his house a home and completes his life." I guess she was right. No matter how tough men might be from the outside, we are softies from the inside. And maybe we need women more then women need us
I guess we as men need to understand our own flaws and give the respect that a women deserves. Out of all the three days that I had, my last day was the most memorable one. I met a dear friend after three long years. She had been studying in the United States and we had lost contact since then. We used to be the best of buddies during our days of innocent youth. We used to chat away for endless hours over conversations and coffee. It was the innocence of youth of our times that made our friendship so strong. Then one fine day, things went wrong and our friendship got hampered. We didn't see each other for years and finally I got a phone call from her yesterday screaming from the top of her voice saying, "Jagdish you don't care about me do you? Its been three years and I haven't got a phone call from you. Do you really care? I want to meet you at this very moment blah blah and some more blah!!!". So off i went to see my best-est buddy and when i saw her i really didn't have anything to say. She had considerably changed from the impatient damsel that she was into a mature individual . We gave each other a hug, looked at each other in a really stupid way and in a matter of moments we started fighting. Don't take this as a negative aspect of our relationship, we used to fight all the time over stupid matters :). The distant gap of three years got vanished in a matter of moments and we became the same stupid kids that we were 5 years back. We conversed over issues that the youth of our age was facing and we conversed over how things have changed in such a short span of time.
And then, the lights of CCD Sayajigunj went off! It started raining and we conversed till hours all together. The thunderstorms and the darkness didn't matter as we were happy to see each other. I felt a guilt inside my heart because we had lost contact since such a long time and i felt,"What if? What if things didn't go wrong? We might have not sacrificed such beautiful moments with each other and our relationship might have become stronger. Maybe we both felt the same feeling. We went out of the cafe, soaked ourselves silly in the rains and we had three cups of cutting chai. My heart sprang in delight on seeing her happy face after so many years and i wished that she could never stop smiling. We went for a walk in the rains and i showed her the place where i worked. We both came back to the cafe and sat on the wet vehicles conversing about everything that came into our heads. Before leaving she told me ,"Jagdish you have to quit smoking. For my sake and our friendships sake and for all the lost time that we damaged in the last 3 years." I will girl,. i surely will. Finally we left home. While i was driving back home getting soaked in the rains, a stupid smile came up my face. Maybe its because i felt the happiness of an innocent child after a really long time. I thanked God for a beautiful friend in my life who still cared and accepted me the way i was.
Conclusively I want to say that life is created through all these special moments which we share with our near and dear ones. These special moments fill in the icing of the cake called life. Life really is meant to be appreciated because we have beautiful people with whom we can share our joys and sorrows with. I guess that's the meaning of life. So its better to appreciate life at this very moment rather then cribbing over what went wrong and what we don't have. Be thankful to life that you have beautiful people around you, because that's what makes life beautiful. And be thankful to women because they bring the colors into our life, they bring the fragrance into our dull existence and they complete is in ways we've never imagined. I couldn't imagine my life without women. They complete me in every way and i am always in awe in this wonder of nature created by the grand architect of the universe. If my guess is right, God just might have been a women. Just a guess :)
