There is no place on this earth which is as far away as YESTERDAY!!

Hello friends….
This is Snigdha. Today I am going to write about my thoughts about MS. I have been to this site for quite sometime…and in that small time also I have made some good friends.
But today I am going to write about one particular review in which someone (around 50 yrs old) had written that if he could become 10 years old again then what he would have done.
There were some points like….
ð I would have maintained a diary so that now I could have relived all those moments once again.
ð I would have kept a list of addresses of all my childhood friends so that now I could have talked to them when I am in need of all those selfless friends.
Well there were so many other points also which, no doubt, were very realistic…but I want to talk about these ones only. I know no one can ever go back to the past.
I always pray to God for giving me that thinking power by which I can judge things and works before doing them so that I will never regret in my future for whatever I am doing now.
But truly speaking I am regretting now that I lost so many friends on the way till now. I made new friends when I joined a new school, when I joined college for +2 (class 11th and 12th), when I joined engineering college……… and at the same time I lost touch with all of them whom I love so much…
After reading that review I suddenly realized that within some more years I will be also in that age when one can only think of the past…I am so busy now in studies that I nearly never remember my old pals and for some more years I will be busy in doing job and with some new friends…ya, let me confess today… “I am very selfish” and I know God will never forgive me for this!
I write diary…almost from last 5 years. Well I lost much of my childhood memories as I had not stored them…but I am not going to repeat that mistake again :0).
I had 2 very good friends in my school. And I came to know that one of them had committed suicide and the news of her death came to me after almost one year of the incidence.
Now I regret that if were in touch with her then I might have done anything for her…I might have helped her to come out of the mental crisis she was going through or at least I might have just by her side when she needed me..
Somebody had said, “ the most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend”…I might have at least done that much….
I cant make her to come back…I lost her due to my mistake….
I also lost touch with the other one and now I don’t know where she is!!
So I decided to start once from the beginning….
And today I made a list of all most all of my school friends with whom I lost contact…and I made calls to 2 of them…talked to them after what seems like an era to me!! They were also surprised by my call but at the same time I could hear a tone of pleasure in their voice…we talked about the moments we were together and planned for a get-together!!
I am so happy. I am going to call some more of them today only…but before that I wanted to say thanks to MS which gave me a chance to come across such a nice and really useful review by which I am trying not to repeat those mistakes once again.
If this review can make you remember at least one such friend whom you lost touch with then I will really be very happy. And let me know what you are going to do in your comments so that I can also do that to contact all my old friends…to begin the friendship once again….
And if this does not make any sense to you then forget it and get to your work… still I am happy that at least I am not going to regret again in my future :0)…
Snigdha..
