And even then, here;s the day that reminds me that another year of my existence has just ended…

and a new one just begun.

Thank you very very much Akruti…for the wonderful wishes….and I promise to make my best shot at making you smile always…

So far, its been a wonderful birthday, a lot of good wishes coming my way, and I thank everyone for it.

Was also surprised and pleased to receive Somu ’s call today…and i couldn’t guess who its from initially…well…i sure am getting older.

From now on, I’ll connect the dots my own way.

and before signing off, a poem Neha wrote for me…

“Your birthday’s not just any day -
It’s when the world was blessed
With an angel of a person
Who does his very best

To share a warm compassion
That keeps other’s needs in mind,
A bright and sunny outlook,
And commitment to be kind,

Then adds a touch of humour,
A true and honest heart,
And a certain little sparkle
That sets angel-types apart..
Your birthday’s not like any other day
The whole year through
‘Cause it celebrates the day
The world was blessed
With very special YOU!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! “

“Things are never quite as scary when you’ve got a best friend.”..and I happen to have so many:-)
