Lessons learnt

I got a mail from a friend a few days back. Wont bore you with the contents but the mail was on the lines that every person you meet, you meet for a reason. Normally forwards don’t really leave much of an impact on me… even if it is about child abuse and stuff (maybe I m just not cut out for sympathy) but I don’t know why, that mail got me thinking big time. And more I thought about it, more I realized, it is true. Alteast from my context. I have met a good many people in life. And must admit, most of them just served to boil my blood. And yet what I didn’t realize from each blood boiling session that I had learnt a new lesson every time anything happened.

• Never trust a person who never has a good word to say about any person in the whole world – every one according to the person is an idiot… and deserved the mean things he/she did to them. Never trust them coz as soon as you go out of their sight you become one of those idiots according to them. (courtesy, Frank)
• You can be in love and yet not be jealous of your “better half” when he/she speaks with members of opposite gender… all you need in life is trust in your partner and confidence in yourself. That way the relationship remains fresh without any petty differences and you remain best friends with the one you love. (mads and swap)
• Everyone can get over all their insecurities about relationships (including commitment phobia) once they meet the right one. No matter what happens, if its meant to be, it will happen. (ripper)
• Everyone says be cautious about people you meet online, never trust them etc. but sometimes the best people in the world you are meant to know are just not available in your vicinity. I have met sweetest possible guy I could have ever known in my life on the internet. There is no way any other person guy or gal can ever compete this person’s sweetness (that’s right, Mr. IIMA, talking about you)
• There is no place on earth that can be boring if you have the best possible friends in the whole wide world. You can go to the same coffee shop for more than 6 years and you will never get tired of the setting or the company coz the best times you have had in your life is with those people. Heck you can watch “tumsa nahi dekha” and still enjoy it. Friends like this last forever. (dips, prats, raj and aks)
• It doesn’t take long in life to “move on” after a break up (wont tell you who I learnt this from, I want to live for some more time)
• Girly girls don’t know a rat’s *** about football but they will always ALWAYS pretend that they support Man U. And their favourite basketball player is always Michael Jordan
• No one I know can beat Pratik as far as instruments are concerned
• The persons who you do not agree with or hate at first might just turn out to be your best friends forever… so choose before you hate someone. (Again, raj, aks, dips and prats)

There are so many things I want to write but offhand I can’t exactly put some thoughts into words. All in all I still don’t know the purpose of this blog. But I just wanted to get some junk from my brain out there. Maybe there is something for someone to learn from it. J
