26th July - Time to Remember

26^th July

This has been a special day (26th July 2005) for me always and always. On that rainy day, we all friends were sitting at the canteen of our college, Dombivli, at 3 in the afternoon planning for a movie. I told my friends to meet at the station and take the tickets for the movie and I along-with my best mate will come along. It was raining very hard and we step outside the college in a single umbrella; I never carry my umbrella anywhere. As we were moving towards the highway to get an auto rickshaw, people were coming across and were screaming the manholes are overflowing. When we stepped ahead, the water was near our knees but it was so joyful to us because I and she enjoy rain and water. My first aim was to leave my best mate to her home, I held here really tight and slowly slowly were walking towards her home.

Finally we reached with not much difficulty and then it was my turn to return home.I called my friends and told that I am coming to the station, but they replied that the station is filled with water and they are too coming at the bus stop. I got a little worried, so then I along-with my friends went to my best mate’s home. I was fully drenched and was shivering with cold, didn’t know what to do at that moment. I along with my 10 friends was stuck at my best mate’s home.

My best mate’s brother was stuck at the school, so I decided that I’ll go the school and get him back. So, I along-with a friend moved towards his school, the water was reaching from knee to the waist and then touched the neck. I didn’t knew swimming and neither my friend. Then he told Krishna, lets move back. He was very scared and seeing him I decided it would be stupid to move ahead and we had to return back.

We needed to change, so we got something from her home to wear. I got my mate’s jeans to wear; we both had the same waist size.

The time was running out and then the night came but the rain didn’t stop at all. In the middle of that I was figuring to move out to some other friends home because it was girl’s house. Then my other friends explained me that in this night, we shouldn’t leave and then I got to know that even she was okay we staying there.

I was also worried about her brother and finally in the night at around 11 her brother arrived and we all were very happy for him.  I don’t know what we ate that night. It was totally dark and there was no power, but we were having fun.

Somehow we were trying to sleep but suddenly in the midnight at around 3 we all woke up by listening the noise outside. When I saw outside, the neighbor’s building was filled with water till the first floor and we were on the ground floor in another building. The water was coming closer to the door steps so we all decided to move all the furniture and expensive items at higher position but then we decided we will cross the bridge when we come closer and we stopped. By the blessings of god it stopped raining at 4 and we were breathing with a sigh of relief.

There was no food at home, no rice, no milk so I decided that we will go to the station and get something to eat. I along with my friend came to the market near the station and got some rice, milk and dal. We were standing just below an lamp post and after getting the stuffs we crossed the road. When we reached the other side, there was short circuit in the lamp post and there was spark all around. Oh, thank god we crossed at the right time and no one was injured.

The train was not going to run for two more days and there was no mode of transport to move. We reached home and there was power at home, we had tea and for lunch we had khichdi. That day was fun for us all; we were playing cards, donkey monkey and then were playing antakshiri. The second night we all slept well.

The next morning we all decided to move out. We all went to the highway and luckily we got a bus for Mulund, a private bus. He told Rs. 100 for each and we accepted. We reached the station and we met a local minister as soon as we got down from the bus. He was asking about the past few days experience and then we gave money to the bus guy but he was not ready to take it. He just got frighten seeing the minister but anyhow I gave him 200 bugs and left for the station.

We reached Mulund station and we had train for Kurla. As many other people were struck somewhere around, we all guys did enjoy and had our horrifying moments too. I cannot forget this 26^th July 2005. I loved my mate, what if she left me and don’t even remember me but such moments will always be remembered.

Some more about Life

Life if unpredictable is so simple to and this is agreed by everyone but has enjoyed the life enough to say it out. Have you ever thought that the thing which I didn’t achieve in life could be achieved in another life? Do you know whether there is another life or not?

You never know; what if there is only one life or this is our last life. So whatever it is, fulfill in this life, do it all, stay happy and make others happy. You know, making others happy makes me feel good. So what if you someone says leave me alone and I will be happy, I’ll do that too but not after trying each and every way to stay connected.

Is it true that somewhere someone is waiting for you? I don’t know, may be or maybe not. I’ve always needed someone in my life. From my perspective we always require that someone.

Defining that someone:

For me,

With whom I can share anything.

Who is always there for me in good and bad times both.

Who loves me more than I love her.

Who understands me.

Who trust me.

What I’ll do for that someone:

I will be always there for her and will love her more than my life.

I will take her to each and every place which she thinks to go.

During weekdays I will help her in cooking, or we can order from outside too, I’ll bring it for her.

I’ll take her out for a movie every weekend or somewhere outside which will make her fresh.

I’ll take her for a long ride.

I’ll do anything to make her happy.

Love you life
