Well, since I have decided to give it a try, I should keep on writing for some more time…. This time I did think of the best topics I could write. Actually there are n numbers of things on which you may write. Even the simplest of the things that happen on a very normal day of ours could trigger something to write.
This is again an important event that happened yesterday. With lots of love for my mother, let me share that secret with you – she turned 50 yesterday. As any one she too didn’t like the number 50 being tagged against her age. As usual, we (me n my wife – a character I should definitely introduce to you, maybe later) did call her in the morning and wished her. She was indeed happy to hear all those. But all along the day, I just felt that she would be missing us, both me and my brother. Of course my father is very much there with her, but again from what I know- kids are kids and husband is a husband. Women are so good that they never mix up these 2.
Now being miles away from her, I do have enough number of excuses which I can say for not doing anything on her very special day. No mother would ever curse her kid for not even wishing on her birthday. All said this very thought kept haunting me all day. I should say it was due to my laid back attitude that I had to worry this much on that very day, when I had enough time to plan and do something good. Being at office, at times I do get distracted by my work and yesterday too, I was taken away from these thoughts by some work. This helped me in pushing some time and when I was back to the same thought, it was apparently late.
I do go online ‘very rarely’ at office hours and do spend some time with my friends as a part of ‘mind relaxation exercises’. Yesterday too, while I was busy with the same exercise, my school friend ‘Goofy’ came online. I shared with him my plight and requested him to give a gift to my mother. My dear goofy, would never say no to any of his friends, very much supported me in this idea and we both decided on ice cream, which she loves a bit more than me. Later during the day, around 2230 hrs, goofy called me from my home and I had a word with goofy, Amma and Achan. Thank God. It happened at last. I felt relaxed, happy and good. Amma has already started attacking her gift, when Achan was talking to me over the phone. Good goofy said good night and left.
So it does make a difference to gift something to your loved ones on a day special to them. Today since, each of might be in different part of the world, it wont be easy.. still… if you too have friends like goofy, I think together you can make some difference. Do it.
