One moves on...Suddenly one fine day, one remembers...a la, its all coming back to me! Memory all wide-awake, one wonders "what happened there?", "where is he?", "did beauty find her beau?","did d geek manage to get cinderella?"...So many questions ::sigh::
Old friends, long pushed to the recesses of one's memory suddenly come alive - chattering, fighting, screaming, shouting, in school uniforms or college jholas, pre/post pre-makeup/ visiting-parlours-days...and one keeps wondering...
Then baam - a blast from the past - Its an FB/orkut alert!She's back - asking to be friends, that bully from the playground, that guy who broke Gulati uncle's window and its back to business:-)
That first rush of finding old friends - that's magic...That first scrap of how have you been - when answered, that's magic...That old friend - after 30 years of being out of touch - finding her online, meeting her, sharing new memories - that's magic....
Ok so I am not 30 and thus cant have met a friend 30 years later..So what...This post isn't about me, this is for all those who find friends - old and new, online! Especially old ones, coz in the flow of life we are constantly making new ones in any case;-))
Its pure magic....Even its not perfect; the past and its connections - They are the present's present and that makes the present most special of them all (i meant tenses, what were u thinking?:P)
"That was awesome...it's like magic when you get that click just right!" ::with slight modifications to Mr. Calvin's wisdom:-)::
