"There Is No-BUDDY Like A Sister."

Though the memories may fade away with passing time but the love we share will only grow.

"There Is No-BUDDY Like A Sister."

I sought my soul, but my soul I could not see. I sought my god, but my god eluded me. I sought my sister and I found all three. 

There have been times in my life when I witnessed big fluctuations in my personal as well as professional life. These were the times when I found myself at my lowest. It seemed harder to bounce back. Disappointment, dissatisfaction and depression were perhaps at their peak. Life seemed suicidal with no silver lining being in sight. That was the time when I recognized the true colours of my 'so-called' best buddies. And in such difficult moments, my sister was one of those supporters who stood by my side and backed me up. She tried her best to get me back on track. She encouraged me, she motivated me, she made me realize my true worth and showed me the blessings around me. She gave me a brand new view of my life. Though it seemed a bit blurred yet it made me feel hopeful about my future. She did every possible thing in this world to bring some shine on my face and a smile on my lips. I started believing that life was not that darker and I could still fill some colours on my empty canvas. I started noticing the brighter side of everything and never looked back since then. 

Somebody has rightly said, "I sought my soul, but my soul I could not see. I sought my god, but my god eluded me. I sought my sister and I found all three." As a matter of fact, you have almost always managed to come between me and worst of my life, and saved my day. And today is the perfect day to pay my heart-felt thanks to a gallant warrior, sometimes a strict teacher and a perfect superhero. Though the memories may fade away with passing time but the love we share will only grow. This Raksha Bandhan, I see you in a new light. Here is the 'labour of love' right from the core of my heart, a small creation dedicated to you Dear Priya Mishra,

"The day you were born, I still remember,

How glad I was to see that very special gift: a sister;

To have the first glance of your little fairy face,

I was just short of words and so speechless;

Being by your bedside, I was awestruck for many days,

And used to rush away from school just to have that cute gaze;

  

You used to sleep soundly in Dadi’s lap,

And looked like an angel in your sweet nap;

Little did I know you would be my ‘Best Buddy’,

and in every thick and thin, you will accompany me;

I played so many roles as a guard, as a driver J

‘Your wish-my command-the highness-wherever-whenever’;

Then days passed by and like a flash time flew,

From a splendid bud to a wonderful flower you grew;

You matured into the most beautiful human being,

Mumma’s delight, Brothers’ pride and Papa’s everything;

With all the girl-graciousness and lady-dignity,

You faced life with sheer strength and absolute ability;

Today is the day to say, “Bravo! Well Done Little Soldier!”

May all your dreams come true and wish you smiles forever;

Now a new journey is waiting ahead, a new path is to tread,

I’m sure you will win hearts with brand new colours you will add;

You will do your very best and will be wise,

Don’t you know, “You’re the shine of our eyes?!!” 

 A 'Labour of Love' right from the Core of my Heart

With Loads of love and ‘Bahut Sari’ blessings
