I AM WRITING THIS BECAUSE YOU GAVE ME A CHANCE TO LIVE...... WE MEET PEOPLE FOR A REASON...

Well, it's been quite sometime since I have written anything for myself. I never wanted to share this with anybody at all but, there is a dire need that we all read through this piece of write-up. I would not be writing this had I gotten into that car that day…. He saved me and I dedicate this piece to that unknown friendly neighbor of mine….

There has been a lot of confusions running in my head for a couple of months and I have been fighting against it all by myself. Sometimes, I have had my dear ones bear the brunt of my actions as well.

I left everything behind and decided to meet that person who had created this beautiful piece of garnished shit for me and had left happily; my flight landed at the airport; my co-passenger almost pounced on me to get off. I was really annoyed by the act and fumed at him, he just smiled at me and said; you have no clue – I am going to meet a friend of mine who I had “STOPPED” talking to, for almost a “DECADE” now.

You don't know, how I feel, his voice faded as he walked out with a broad smile wishing everyone a happy day and disappeared, I had no time to listen to his crap and everything I had on my mind was, “GET MY ANSWERS”.

I went to hire a cab and unfortunately, it was a long queue and I again bumped into this friendly neighbor of mine who looked at me with the same smile. Even without a second thought, he said; “Hey, you look upset; but trust me, “EVERYTHING SHALL PASS BY” and you don't know how am I feeling”. I did not want to know his feelings but still, he wouldn't stop at that. He again repeated those lines. I had a great misunderstanding with a friend of mine for a decade now, and today I am here to meet him all the way from Atlanta.

I nodded at him with disinterest, while he continued to narrate his story. He was my friend from college days and I don't know, just because of some ambiguity in communication, we had to turn away from each other and by now, he had caught my attention; because our situations was almost the same. I nodded looking at him and he said, The circumstances then, looked really huge, but today when I look back at it, I feel that I had missed such a wonderful conversation with this buddy of mine for so long, you know; I was so immature then said he, smilingly.

My taxi arrived and by the time I got into it, he just pushed me away and hopped into it thanking me away smiling and said, You will surely remember me, won't you? I also smiled at him and got into another taxi and started off. The roads were pretty clear that day and after 15 minutes of our drive, my car driver braked suddenly. In front of me, stood a huge truck and beneath that lay a car with two people hanging on either sides of the window with a lot of people surrounding them.

I walked out of the car and to my horror, the friendly neighbor who I had spoken to just about 15 mins ago lay dead, his friend standing beside him whining for the departed soul. I almost collapsed looking at the bloody bodies, his head was crushed and the driver's hands were stuck to the tyres of the truck. I almost puked. I called the driver and asked him to drop me back at the airport.

This incidence taught me the most important things in life..

There are good and bad days in life, LIFE IS TO LIVE NOT A BAGGAGE OF SECRETS, we do not need one.

Do not let a few misunderstandings take a toll on your FRIENDSHIP.

Everything here is replaceable – EXCEPT FOR THE LIVES LOST, SOULS DEPARTED….

LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR ANGER , REVENGE ANALYSIS AND EGO, it is all about FORGIVING AND FORGETTING.

I just decided to leave that place without any answers, I had got an answer, “HE EMBRACED DEATH, which was written for ME” he saved me and with this I understood, LIFE GAVE ME A SECOND CHANCE.
