Some important people in my life
I loved one friend’s status on facebook that “The more we are connecting electronically, the less we are becoming emotionally bonded.
The good thing facebook is doing that people are really expressing themselves on this platform as if they have got one close friend to share(Facebook has been kind of emotional support to many).
Coming back to real world from online world, we all share some special bonds with some people who have played/are playing a good role in our life..From childhood to wherever you are now, some people have been with you somehow & yes they are responsible for what you are today.
I also have few people who I just thought of mentioning today who have contributed directly or indirectly, helped me in thick and thin, making me what i am today and this is not a farewell speech but I just want to acknowledge & thank them, As I have learnt that everybody loves to read/know about themselves, just thought to write about few people, few important people in my life.
(Before you read in detail, the names are Lovely, Tejinder Singh, Neeraj Sharma, Manoj Shah, Amrisha and Abhishek, Swati, Mamta and Endee)
1. Lovely
It was the class 6th to 8th, this guy was not my friend but a threat. His roll number was next to me & I always ran away from him, I didnt know why I was so scared of him, I used to complete his assignments daily. My mom saw the growing tension on my face & one day I told her that this guy got all his assignments done by me regularly, Mom went to that guy’s house & blasted him in front of his mother. From then I was a free bird,
From him,I learnt the meaning of the word POWER.
2. Tejinder Singh
He was with me in my engineering days, He was a go getter, fearless, His home was just 30 km from my hometown, and we used to travel together on weekends. He would never stop, he was a solution provider.He was my best friend, whenever there used to be something wrong, I always used to go to him & he would leave everything to help me & take me out of the trouble. There I learnt friendship.
3. Neeraj Sharma
Oh God, I loved the energy he had, So much of positivism, so much exploration he had done, we are together for over 20 years now & the special bond I share with this guy is magical, We were friends earlier and somehow we were not in talking terms for years.Suddenly one fine day on some festival he came home , we sorted everything & then this magical friendship resumed.
He went to Mumbai first & I used to see Mumbai from his eyes, the power this city had, Mumbai soon became a destination where I wanted to go. The great quality this guy has is the sense of humor & the timing, spontaneity which I have always enjoyed, also his sense of understanding of situations is great, what I have learnt from him is that exploring the world/people, care, unconditional love & sense of practicality of situations.
4. Manoj Shah
He was my senior in MBA college, my guide & my mentor.Wherever I got stuck, he was there, The greatest quality I learnt from him to LISTEN, he is a great listener,he would hear you out completely & then give his opinion what he feels, not enforcing. He had a major impact in my MBA life in terms of how I used to think about people. A very special bond I share with him, very special, now also whenever there is something I need to talk about, He is the first person that comes to my mind.
Oh! fantastic sense of wittiness I learnt from him,Yes,Positive approach to life, On his scooty I used to roam around in Pune till I got bike.
5.Amrisha Srivastva and Abhishek Acharya
These are the people from whom I learnt new dimension of friendship, they brought a real change in me what I use to think about friendship, Care, Love that I got from them was great. Had I not met them, I would not have known what that dimension of friendship they taught me..Amrisha is a fighter & every time I hear line from Movie jab we met “ Main apni favorite hun” she comes to my mind,
She really used to love herself, a lot, and with abhishek I share a eternal connction as he is the only one to catch my filmy chemistry in the whole world, he used to display the same energy in acting or dialogues which anybody till now has not been able to.
6. Swati Bajpai
She is a wonderful soul i have met, great respect as a person she commands from me, We met in our MBA college and rest is a history.
The more I know about her, the more excited I am. She taught me to live in present, very clear in her thoughts, her sense of understanding, the logicalisation she does, when we were in college, she was a partner not a demanding girlfriend, a down to earth human being. a fantastic sense of humor,a good singer & a good friend & above all the cuteness oh gosh is amazing. We fought a lot but one good thing was we knew that we had divine connection.
7. Mamta Ranasaria
A energy powerhouse, A philosopher, this human being is so pure with whatever she does. Purity is her strength. I met her in last leg of 2007, fascinated by her actions which she wanted all the time. I hadn’t met this kinds of powerhouses before, Passion, self pampering, exploration is the key this person has,
I saw myself evolving the more I interacted with her, one great thing I learnt and saw with her ( which I call page 3 world) were the parties, a new dimension, a new set of people in the various places in Mumbai. She broadened my horizon day by day & I was learning. Her spontaneity, sense of rationalism, emotions are one above normal people. I share a special bond with this lady and it’s beyond transactions. I have great respect for her for the way she is.PURE.
8. Endee Rampal
Came year 2014, I was doing some research about Lavasa online and i saw her photographs on FB staying in Lavasa. She was with me in my Welspun days and i didnt hesitate to ask her about Lavasa. .Whatever feedback she gave, i went to Lavasa and a new tale began.
She is a wonderful girl i have ever met till now, so warm and so pure just like mountain water. I met her in last few months in delhi and whenever i interact with her, i feel so much of connect. What i learnt from her is unconditional care and love without any layers. Further i like her elegant dressing sense and the way she carries herself. We create special moments between us and will cherish them forever.
There are many more who have influenced me in my life till now but above mentioned have added a new dimension in my life, I love them beyond boundaries.
Thanks for making me what I am today
Lots of love, hugs
