On a better note

On a better note ... this is one of those occassions that its a weekend and I am in good spirits and thought that this would be a good point to pen in a few lines!

Its a really pleasent surprise when a really good friend from your "wonder years" calls you at work in office and informs you that he is in a neighbouring country on a business trip (after a gap of something like 9-10 years) ... You exchange a few pleasentaries and then launch off into a triade of questions regarding what he has been up to? How the family is coming along etc etc etc ...

While the chance to meet an old friend is intriguing, the best part of it is the immediate trip down nostalgia lane. This one call out of the blue does to you. You are left with happy memories and a warm tingling sensation about the years that have gone by ... not to mention that if you are a thinker like me, you end up facing questions like "My Oh my - how time flies!", "Was it really that long ago?", "What a great set of years", "If I could relive that again, would I do it any different?" or "I wish I had known it was so good then" and so on !

Hmmm ... As someone has rightly said: Life is not about how many moments you breathe, but about how many moments that take your breath away

Right now, I am getting ready for the weekend :-)
