Love or Friends? Love for Friends?

The fateful day is finally over and as planned, I got a lot of desserts. There is truly nothing better than friends in the life. You can be anything with them - bitchy, whiny, arrogant, happy, idiotic but most of all, you can be yourself with them. You will get judged but you will also get acceptance. There is a level of comfort that no relationship in your life will ever be able to give you. There is a reason why it's "Bros before hoes" and "Sisters before misters."

My Valentine's Day plan was perfectly executed. I knew I was getting something and I wasn't disappointed. Early in the morning I got a huge jar of Banoffee Pie and later in the day I got a Valentine's Day special-box from Dunkin' Donuts  with heart shaped donuts inside. Super cute! This is what friends are for. Who needs a boyfriend when you got a best friend.

Why is friendship sacred you ask? It is the only relationship that comes without obligation. You are not forced to be friends with someone, you either like that person or you don't. Some miracle must have happened in the universe if you end up finding people you're compatible with. Everyone is praying for a soulmate and all I ever wished for were mates. Your friendship is yours and yours only and no one can understand it. The set up  that friends build up is suitable to exactly what they require. You don't meet up everyday, you meet up once a year or you talk every single day or every weekend, depends on your individual equations. It's perfect. Since there aren't too many obligations and expectations, it is the one relationship you can count on. No give and take apart from the occasional birthday gifts, no showoff, no pretense, no drama, just a whole lot of fun!

Now isn't this a better love story?

Every year on 14th February, there is no guarantee that the guy this year would last another. These guys would keep changing but every year on Friendship's Day, your friends will be same. The bond, the love, is invariably greater between friends than it could be in a relationship unless you are in a relationship with your best friend. Kudos to the guy who got out of friendzone!

Candace Bushnell rightly said — 'Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates and guys are just people to have fun with.'
If you think about it, that's a prophecy right there. Our girlfriends could be the soulmates we've been searching for. They are a perfect fit to the puzzle, they complete our thoughts and sentences. They are the one!

From this day to the days till the end of time, remember you always have someone. You are never alone. Your BFFs would be the best date you've ever had.


Keep loving,
Keep reading.
Spread happiness,
Love thyself.

XOXO

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo

Man VS Pants

Here I am, sitting with my lappy, sipping on cold coffee and typing away. I would like to think I am just like anybody else but with all that goes around in my life, I have learnt to be prepared for the worst. Murphy's Law is basically me. Yesterday, I had an interview at a University. Like all hardworking students, I left everything for the last day. Scrambling to put my portfolio together, I paid no heed to my clothes. It's not like I had to put a lot of effort into my attire anyway. Interview requires formals and since I have just one pair of formal clothes, the indecision goes right out of the window. To give some context on why a working professional does not own a lot of formals is because my company (one of the kindergarden companies, also known as startups) does not require formals. Our dress code is casual. They are lucky I don't go to office in sweatpants. Now that would be casual! I own one pair of black pants, one shirt and one formal coat. Sorted? Not so ...
