Retrospection

"Hold back!", I tell myself. I'm trying to fly too high, too fast. Grabbing air, as much as I can, within my wings, and pushing it back with all my life force! Floating mid-air in the resulting momentum.

Life is beautiful still! Whole...with all the aspects that can be. Family, friends, love, health, testing times and happy & hilarious moments!

I have...

FAMILY: I've always felt blessed about the fact that I "do" have a family! And a very happy and caring one at that too. I could've been an orphan, had a single parent, would've had a troublesome, ignorant..or worse...an indifferent family! A family like ours, is a fortune not everyone is blessed with. Everything I am, I am because of them alone.

FRIENDS: For a major part of my life until now, I considered myself a loner. Until newer people started becoming an integral part of it. Each one teaching me so many different things. Filling up the empty spaces of unknown feelings and unfelt emotions. So much so that I am addicted to the learning I got and am continuing to get, I cannot imagine a single day without them. I looked beyond the horizon...and found a new world in them.

LOVE: Was an immaculate feeling when I used to imagine how it would be, before it actually happened. And ever since it happened, I realized that my imagination was so imperfect! I was waiting to fall in love, and yet so afraid of it. But love triumphed! It made its way through, imploring the most clandestine desires to be unleashed! It gave me a kind of freedom from the anxieties, breaking the boulders of insecurities and delusions of a major inferiority complex...I was suddenly rising high! To know that that path you have chosen to walk on, is a strong one, and wouldn't crumble right under your feet midway, was quite a booster to the fuel tank of my life's Ferrari! :)
