Letters

Was reading through the blogs of some of my friends and got interested in one of my dearest and started to read it from her very first blog , when suddenly this blog became interesting. The one about letters.

Donno why but since childhood letters were never my choice . Even if i write i will be of 4-5 lines. I HATE writing lengthy ones but love to read lengthy ones. I have writtern letters to a very few in my life .
1. To my Mom when I joined hostel.
2. To one saro in my hostel . She is (or should I say was , I lost her wherabouts) my pen pal. She stayed in the same hostel room as mine and left the college just the day before I joined.

On the receiving end , yes, I have got quite some numbers . My mom has writtern me atleast half a century during my hostel days. Whenever I get a letter from my mom ,I feel like seeing her and will go home the same evening. After all it was just 1 hr travel.

The first letter I got from her still is fresh in my grey matter. I had a school friends who lived close by my home and we were in the same college and class too. My mom sent her first letter through him. Poor guy , gave me this letter in the class one fine morning and it all started there. When I came back to hostel in the evening, I could hear giggles all around and could see that I was the cynosure of fun.Guess what , the letter given by my friend was mistaken as a romantic one :(.

My second special letter was by my closest Jai. He wrote this on my birthday in the year 2000. As that was our last year of college together it was all senti senti. Some how for reasons unknown , he strongly beleieved that we would not meet after college. I still treasure that letter but fortune was by my side. He is still the same closest buddy and we talk everyday and meet atleast once in 3 months. He is really a God's gift.My prayers are always with you buddy.

Another person who comes to my mind whenever I say the word letters is my dear friend from my ex-company Vidhya. She is really fond of writing and I still rember the way she used to decorate the email she send us every morning. She loves to take that extra effort of downloading new themes into MS Outlook for a goodmorning email. I have always admired her for this .(Also for many other cute little things she does).

Phew , Guess i have penned a lenghthy one and hence here I stop with a thank you note to preethi for inspiring me to write this one.
