The Ruch Zone

Its 4.13 a.m. on the 1st of January 2007 and I have just come back from one of the most amazing New Years eves ever. No, we were not pub hopping and neither did we go to any private party. Infact, it was just the 12 of us friends and cousins sitting together and having a great time. Tonite is probably the coldest nite of the season with heavy fog and wind blowing and sitting on the roof top gave us the feeling of being in a hill station. But what made it a truly memorable nite was the fact that all of us were sitting totally unguarded by our fears and insecurities and spoke about life the way we look at it.

And what it made me realise is that its not money, success, fame, which make your life worth living. Its people. People, who matter to you, who care for u with no pretence, who can abuse you on your face and hug you the next moment, who can accept your eccentricities and still love u the way you are, who can give you a warm hug during good and bad times, whose few words can lift your spirits like nothing else in this world.

No, I am not the one to say that I don t need money and success. I work hard because I have a dream. That I will become somebody big one day, that I will make a name for myself. But all of that would be of no consequence if I will not have people around me to celebrate it with.

So I just want to thank everyone who has been a part of my life. People, who have come and gone. People who have stayed with me throughout, people who have loved me and people who have hated me. People, who look upto me and people who detest me. Without you all, my life would have been a drag. U guys have kept me going. Because of u all, I have tried everyday to be a better person.

All of u have evoked different emotions in me (good and bad) and made me the person I am today. And if at any point of time, I hurt anybody with my insenstivity or ignorance, I am truly sorry about it. Cant say it was always unintentional but it was human for sure.

So, cheers to all of you. U have made 29 years of my life truly worth living and I hope the best is yet to come.
