Days of our lives

I find it really difficult to reconcile with my self. I think of myself as a disciplined disciplinarian but I am perhaps the laziest person I know. I am proud of my intelligence and range of knowledge but I am also the biggest idiot I have ever known. I think I am a sociopath, abhor most people, and think of myself as a loner - the Steppenwolf! And yet, I have had so many friends that every calendar day feels like it is special for some reason, with some friend - a birthday, a memory, a proposal, a breakup, a sweet moment, a bitter fight, a patch up, and what not!! 

Like today only, talking to Didi, I mentioned 8th November and recalled what a special day it is. In fact, November is probably the most eventful month with everything listed above. I could have celebrated today also, if only life went as per plans and I was in Indore. Then there is October - my own birthday, that of closest friends, silent crushes, and many firsts! July is also very special - with the most beloved birthdays and most bittersweet moments. 

And perhaps, every other month also - December, March, June, February, May.... Just that all that remains there is a few memories of a few moments with a few mortals... and at the end, all I have is this line:

कुछ दोस्तों से वैसे मरासिम नहीं रहे...
