Trip to Aamchi Mumbai on my Birthday!

10 November 2011 was a marquee day for me. Birthday Boy was travelling to Mumbai for the celebration. The day I was waiting for a last couple of months to celebrate with my best best friend. I was very stoked. I arrived at Mumbai in early morning. The atmosphere was really different. One of my best friend always reminding me that Mumbai has a very tough life. My perception is that Daily life in Mumbai is fast paced and cosmopolitan. The city rises at the crack of dawn and doesn't sleep until well into the night.

In Mumbai, I had a feeling of strong eagerness. I don't know why?? Might be later on I will find the  solution. But  solution exist in the evening. It is just like a kind of feeling or eagerness when I visited New Delhi at regular intervals during my College days. I was getting a lot of birthday wishes from my friends. One of my friend come to know that I'm in Mumbai. He called me & asked me to come down to his flat at Chembur. I went to Chembur & spend quality time with him. Now, I'm strolling to Worli for the celebration & divine evening. I reached at Worli. But later I found that My best friend stuck with loads of work. Even she was trying to escape out from the office but she couldn't make it. I was waiting for her expecting that something miracle will happen...................................After waiting for long lasting 3.5 hours, than I was crawling to Mumbai Central to catch up my train.

Few days back I promised my best friend I always display effervescent & positive outlook. I know myself on that evening situation is almost a mirror reflection of what I have planned. The best way to react is to think tank know that situation is worst, but how I can win from here? The biggest "Trophy or Medal" for me to bestow her a lot of happiness. On that night, she called up & was feeling guilty but I respond her in very brave movement "Its not your fault. Just relax & take it easy". That was a winning moment for me. Because If she is happy , I'm happy go lucky.

Lesson for me: Relation grows as much as the expectation stretches. I tell myself that "I cannot have a carpet under which I can keep all these things & at the same time expect these things will remain stable". Few things are not in our hands. It could be better to leave it & look forward.

Very next day, I celebrated my birthday with office colleagues.
