My memory book


I don’t even know where to start from. Words don’t come easy at times like these. It has been a journey full of experiences- A journey of lifetime. We met as strangers. Never did we realize we will be a part of each other’s lives forever.  When you are 24/7 with someone, you tend to get close. You have no choices. No matter how much you dislike a person but you cannot stay away from them because somewhere, they have become a part of your story and you, theirs. Every one we know, they all have labels of their stories.

Such is my story and the label is “Dreamer”. Do I even need to tell that?! I cannot be thankful enough to God for this wonderful chapter of my life which is full of so many characters- each one with different story. I thank you all for making me a part of your stories. Life has been tough dealing with all our daily problems. But with you all by my side, it was kind of fun to face them, because I know it was not just me, but we all were going through similar downfalls. It is funny that although we all have our own stories, yet it has been almost the same for the past one and a half years. Each story has a label- many a times not very visible. But we just have to make a little effort to read it. And that’s the tricky thing about labels. Once in a while they tell us everything we need to know. But most of the times, it is a very small part of the story. Slapping a word or two on a person can make things worse. In reality, nothing is as simple as the label may depict it. I have misinterpreted so many labels. I am sorry for all those times.

My label too has been misinterpreted so many times. I am not perfect. I make mistakes. And I learn from them. I have been good and I have been bad. And I have been more than bad.  Thank you all for bearing with me when I was at my worst. I know my stubbornness can get a little too much to take, but you all have taken it and accepted me like that. I may never show it or say it, but you all have played a very important role in shaping my life. Where ever I go, whatever I am, I shall never forget the love showered upon me. I also learnt a few lessons that will last me my lifetime. I don’t know whether to be thankful for those, because as much as I have learnt from them, they have broken me somewhere. But nevertheless “C’est la vie”.


God bless…
