As I was going through my birthday wishes on my “wall”, I was thinking, if technology has brought the world together or has started another world of its own. Not that I am complaining, I feel very special to read those birthday messages from so many people all around the world, however I realized that I used to get more personal calls/txts before the “world of Facebook” existed. I can’t lie, I was kind of missing those personal gestures and was only about to feel low, and my phone went off. I got a call all the way from Nepal, from this friend of mine, I’ve known for almost 12 yrs. now. We don’t stay connected like in everyday basis, but we still are in touch. A big smile on my face ended the call. After that, calls from few close friends followed. I guess, everyone have these kind of people in their lives, who just knows how to make you feel special in a very ordinary way. Internet has obviously brought the world closer and made connection easier, but it feels so much better when someone still calls. Calling seems old school now, since everything can be done through txt or chat or just by simply writing on the wall. Its amazing how simple things can add so much joy in our life. I am always asked what I want for my birthday and today I know exactly what I want. These people, who makes me experience “simple joys of life”, I want them in my life forever.
(p.s. This doesn’t mean I don’t want gifts...I still want gifts as well :D)
You all know who you are and I love you all.
