Best Friends forever!

Well there's this best friend of mine,who is the best girl friend anyone could ever have... She have been with me like forever... I call her when i feel down... Although she's not great at advising! She is My best friend...She's my loyal companion...  its none other than My darling sister...

 I remember... when i was a kid, i always used to imitate her in everything... I even followed her routine... I did the same things she did when she got ready for school... 5 years back... i wonder how i remembered her routine! I clung on to her always... how i irritated her at times... how i listened to all her school and college 'dramas', how i supported her in all her pranks... and even cried when she was sad! I loved her then and now...

The fun we had of all... the bus trips, shopping,the gossips, the 'Pretend cookery shows' ,the times she prompted for us(my bro too) while watching a movie...and what not!

I remember the small small things she taught me... some knowingly and some unknowingly... she taught me to read the clock,to plait my hair, to wash my clothes and even to bathe :)

She took care of me when i was small... She used to feed me, bath me and even scold me! She helped in all the things i needed help... she consoled me when i was sad,motivate me, advice me when i was in a dilemma, comforted me when i was down, she was there for me whenever i needed her... she has always been there for me just like a mother... Yes,she's more than a sister to me... More than a friend... She's like my mom... to me!

Now she's a super mom, a loving wife but she'll always remain my special friend,my loyal companion and My beautiful sister!

(P.S: Sorry for the inconvenience for non keralites,The above song is in malayalam... Its depicts the sisterhood between two young girls... the motherly affection of the elder sister towards the younger one)

There's an old song,Our song... that i love a lot... "kannam thumbi pooramo... ennodu ishtam koodamo... ninne koodathillelo innu en ulli pookalam"

time went by... After years... There still remain that bond and love we share... Its always fun when we are together... but when we three are together(my mom too) its awesome... its fun and its filled with laughter!

Now that i grew up, i don't feel like being pampered by her instead i love to pamper these two beautiful women in my life.... who took care of me and brought me up to be Me! and i'd say they did a great job :)

I respect women because i was brought up by these two beautiful women... i learned what women is all about from them... and i wish i could be at least 50% as good a women like them!

This is dedicated to my darling sister for being the same always... There nothing more you can do, there nothing i want more... all i want you to know is that you are the best sister in the whole world!

Down the memory lane...


Ok fine, i'll take up blogging...again! Well dont get me wrong... These are my own thoughts... I used to write whn i was a kid... I wrote poems, kept a diary and even wrote a novel... I wonder where those are now!! Well i never saved any of my work, my family sure did read them and only they did :( sigh! I wish i had at least some of them saved in any old books of mine so that i could just go bak to those old days...


My favourite time of my life until now... It was just before i entered my teens... And just after it... Those days were the best days of my life, the freedom i enjoyed before i was considered a 'big girl', being the youngest really helped to add a little extra time to tht 'lil girl' stage... 


My childhood days,The things i learned , the places i explored... Everything was just like a fairy tale or a fairy land to me... I njoyed the pampering of my father, the giggles exchanged between the girls, the green nature, the stories i shared with the birds,the breeze when i held my chin up to feel them, the smile when i saw the red sky during the sunset, the times i counted the stars and wished to see one shooting... I remember the times i used to climb up the ladder at home to reach the top terrace just to njoy the beautiful sunset, to get inspired and jot down a few lines...


Everything and every moment of those days were writing me a story... The stories i'll cherish forever... I didn't realise it then but sure i am glad i have them to remember... 


I was like dora..the explorer! definitely without a backpack... I used to wonder a lot, climb trees or walls! ;) of my own home!☺ yeah i was fast and upbeat almost always during those days... I explored the world around me .. to a good extend, a 9 or 10 year old can... My visits to my father's place( my uncle's) were always filled with new things, things tht were new to me since i lived in the city... The village offered a lot of excitement, the fields, the coir industry, the goats, ducks n chickens, the tamarind trees, most of all the loving people around... I never missed any chance i got to walk around and explore... The lives,the beautiful nature and every time i went... I stumbled across something new and exciting! 

My visits to my maternal grandparents, added an extra spice called 'pranks' to those days... Definitely with my cousins... Together we used to sneak out for our day's adventures to begin... Our strolls through the streets, visits to the river bank... where we had our share of fun, the bicycle rides (which i was scared of), and when we got tired the pennies from my grandma sure did buy us a lot of sip up's! We played and danced... Merely and happily enjoying every moment, the day ends with the echo of our laughter lingering the corridors... I was loving it, every bit of my childhood!


Never going to get those days back, nor our children will have such a time in their life... I feel bad for them,for those who never got a chance to enjoy or missed these small wonders a child could cherish for a lifetime...


Adios until my next visit :)
