Friendship Redefined - Niky Kuruvilla

Finally here comz the day when My dearest fren has to leave India to take the next step in her life. A step that is gonna redefine her career and probably take her close to her aspirations. My best wishes and prayers. This moment offers me a chance to think back/rewind my life back to 3 and odd years to recount some of the most amazing and precious days of life in Hyd and how this fren was a reason for change and smile in my life.

It all started in one of the guest houses of Google. Got introduced to dis person there and then in office. Initially we were offering cold shoulders to each others and we were forced to say hi or bye when we bumped into each other accidentally. It all took a mighty and massive turn during one of the fun trips to a rainy place. The trip offered as the well needed ice breaker session where we got to know each other like never before. then probably I realized that I actually became a fren with her. yeah the spirit of frenship was its best then and after that there was never a moment where it went down.

Rather its always increasing and often challenges me metaphysically :) yeah. Thats the strength of frenship i share with this wonderful person. I probably can boast that I know her to a significant extent about her life and its attributes. And Yeah, she knows me to an equal extent. We where always there to listen to each other's problems, sympathize, empathize and console each other. Some of the best moments wud be cooking, eating, drinking, roaming in the streets, and everything.

If some one who is reading this gets a feel if we never fought for any issue, here comz the answer. Yeah . we did fell out of each other at times but the span of time is very insignificant and can hardly be accounted for. Once, I happened to throw a google ball on her head when she was almost writhing in pain with a bad bad head ache. I got to understand how she wud react to it then. This followed some strong apologies and then yeah we were smiling again.

Once again, we almost fell out due to a complex reason that cannot be put up on this note but yeah it was sorted out very soon. :) lemme focus on the most positive aspects of my relationship with this most valuable fren. There were several issues we would never agree on. We differed on several things. Infact if you could take into account the issues we differ on, then definitely that outnumber the issues we would agree upon :P but yeah. we broke stereotypes.

the true spirit of frenship does not look upon the issues were we agree upon, but on issues we disagree, yet respect each other genuinely for our differences and accept the fact that we can disagree. is that not a true testimony to the most treasured value of the essence of frenship. She has been my life saviour on many occasions. i am sure god sent her along with another angel named Jeff to rescue me from death bed and stand by me. :) it did not happen by chance but gods careful choice of people to bail me out.

I happened to leave Hyd before she could leave. Post which, due to obvious reasons my interaction and meeting her fell down. but there was and is onething that never fell or that would never fall down in the future. Thats the spirit of frenship :) that is the most indisputed factor.

I am very sad for the reason that you are leaving the country but am very happy for the very same reason too. Its a move for good. Also, the strength of frenship does not get constrained or contained by geographical boundaries. Its a state of mind and its strong to defeated by any physical factor. Thanks for being a great fren and making me believe in me more than what I believed in myself. :)

You have been a reason for change and you have brought several reasons to smile in my life :)
