A tribute to Friendship!!!!!
Just finished watching the last episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S season 10.First time I watched it,was with Manu,and we both cride like a baby.....Wasnt much different this time.
It kind of brought back lot of old memories..Of all the goodbye's I have said to my friends in 22 years of my life.
The first Goodbye was,when I was leaving Indore actually.I was very very upset,and I was surprised as to the fact that I was upset,because I never liked Indore...I was more of a loner there,getting bullyied like crazy..I still remember,at the age of 11,getting philosophical,and thinking,"there is not much I would miss about this place,then why am I sad?" I reasoned,I was just afraid of all the changes.
After that I suppose,Goodbye's dint really make me sad,primarily because,I would get a lot of attention,and going away gifts...which were kinda nice...Then was another goodbye to hyderabad, to Ramya and Swetha..to two of my best friends...I miss u guys!!!
The worst of all Goodbye's was when I was leaving Pondicherry.If you have read my earlier blog,you would know,how much in love we were with the university and the system[ thats me being sarcastic].But,now that I think about it,they were the most beautiful times of my life...and I met and became friends with some very wonderful people.I guess Angie was the first one to leave,and I was so sad,because I kinda knew I would never see her again...I have met her only once after that...and very sadly,she preferred not staying in touch,which I cant believe after all the times we have had...all those times,we went to town just to have pani puri....or all those times,when I was sick,and she was there to take care of me,and all those discussions we had about love and life,right into the night.I thought all that meant something...atleast to me,it did.And I just hope,where ever she is,she is doing well,and is happy,coz thats all that matters to me
Rani,another of my best friend left a day earlier to me,we cried buckets that night,because of various different reasons..and i felt so lonely,after she left.Thankfully,we are still best of friends,and she got engaged this month...I am so so happy for her!!
The day I was supposed to leave,Akhila and Anu were the one's who gave me company till the gate.I still remember those smiling faces,looking up at me,as I boarded the bus.It was a very quick goodbye,with jahnvi,and other's as they were leaving too,i suppose the next day.And ofcourse,Mr Dependable=Venky was there to see me off,at the station..we talked about the old times, and all the fun we had.
Weirdly,I was never able to say bye to Soumya.And I am happy I never said goodbye to Alok,coz I would never want to let go of such a good friend.
It was a very weird journey for me...thought of coming and living in mumbai,was driving me crazy.I was never sure,if I would manage to get a job.. and,I had no friends there.....My family was and has been my only support.
Ofcourse,things are much better now.Still dont have friends,but have Manu i can crib to,and my family, and thankfully,I am still in touch with all of em,but for one.
And it just makes me happy,for all those special times I have spent with each of them,and the love and affection we share now.I guess there is no goodbye when it comes to a friend,because,even after years,you can still pick up from where you left,and still love and cherish the person unconditionally.
Today when I saw the last episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S, I not only cried bcoz one of the finest series was coming to close, but also coz it just reminded me of all those people who have walked into my life, and fortunately stayed in my life and my heart.
And this is just to say,I miss each and every one of you very very much!!!!!!!
