Reborn

But...

(blankness)

(emptiness)

(shock)

Why...

What happened?...

But you said...

You thought...

You had all this so clear in your mind... I was your man. You had decided that I was not just a temptation, but your man for life...

Then, what happened?

Ananthakrishnan, our guru, had said that both of us would receive enlightenment when we are 37 and 32, respectively... I remember everything clearly.

You left me... it took me a long while to refocus. To realign my life. To rethink and digest the fact that you will never be a part of my life anymore.

It was a lovely time. It was a lovely dream in your words... shattered. But the river flows on... it moves ahead. Gathering strength from the slope of life... through the plains...

ranga, I will meet you when you come back to Chennai... but she won't be with me. Vandana, it's great meeting you again. Please do comment on my blog like you always wanted to.

Life, here I come back to reality from a shattered, awakening, soul-wrenching dream. But I am glad to be alive. But, I know a part of me has died... and

Now, I am reborn: stronger and wiser. I remember, life is my only teacher.
