What did i do on The V-Day?

I love planning my minutes, my hours, my days , my years....but this Valentines' Day i did something unplanned; something i became a part of by chance, went back to a world i had missed for a year now....owing to various other priorities in life.

I entered the world knowing very well that i belonged there,
I surprised some and made some smile,
I attended a session that told me how important it is to value the 'self' and 'life'. Not that i did not know, just that we tend to forget at times that we need to take care of ourselves.
I ate a lunch that brought back memories of all the N food packs at the post meeting gupshups at No.**, Hutchins Road!
I was part of an exercise working with special adults making the most special cards on that day.
While some said the story of love, others hoped it was friendship personified..some said it with cookies and some with cricket, some colored the colors of life while some just made us believe that we should count our blessings!
I was part of a very special Valentines Day, expressing love to people i did not know but it did not matter! I was part of an experience where we made another person smile...
those cards may turn yellow, the colors may fade, the smiles may wither...
But the hope is here to stay...
I was back to the world i loved and i still do....

Hope to step into that part of the world more often now...
*This is for all of you bcos of whom i was there...No. 10 on the list!
