You inadvertently become more responsible; become multitasked - cooking, talking to mom and even making a sandwich because you are hungry. Midst of this busy life one often forgets to unwind and take that mandatory break to recharge so as function efficiently later. This happened and still happens with me quite often, I work till I get burned out and exhausted and all it takes for me to recharge is meeting with friends. And in my case, particularly this one friend who talks non-stop and once in a while I add in with a little of this and that.

I remember that day when we met after ages and it was like a storm when we were talking. We hardly cared who is listening or who might frown at our loud laughs. We were unstoppable and I didn’t even realize I ate a whole sundae till I hit the bottom of the cup (please note – I don’t and can’t eat an ice cream beyond a scoop) that’s the kind of effect she has on me always and quite honestly I like it.And when I came home that night I realized how much fun it was to be with her again. I didn’t care how I looked, I didn’t care how much I was eating (that includes ice cream), I didn’t care how hot the sun was that day (sun is my worst enemy and I tend to turn all red, from head to toe); all I remember was it was one fun-filled day loaded with extra dose of happiness. Now when I sit back and think, we didn’t do anything extra-ordinarily; I in fact don’t remember in first place what made me feel so happy that day. All I remember was it was great catching up with an old friend and talk mindlessly with no head or tail, making no sense at all in our talks and without any reason giggling like teens; I was just not me at all that day.Image Source - DespicableMeMinionsAfter that day I realized one thing, it’s not the places or things that make you feel great; it’s the people around you. They make the best memories that can be treasured for ever. And the best part, whether one remembers or not what made them to treasure those moments as best memories; one never ceases to forget how those moments and the people involved made them feel.Honestly, I don’t have words to describe that day and/or those moments. All I remember is how truly awesome I felt that day! And I believe that’s the power of being #together. Sometimes all it takes is few moments with that one person and life seems so wonderful all over again. For so long the life was routine and sort of dull, that day made me realize that it doesn’t have to be so. At times life throws you into a situation where in you realize that even the smallest of things, simplest of people without the intentions of doing so turn out to be the biggest motivators of life. A kind word, a smile and a pat on the back is all you need to get back on track to be the best you can be and go on with the battles of life. All this and more happened with me that day, with that BFF of mine!!
