At each stage of life we learn something new. Life is all about learning, whether it’s something good or something which we never want. In all the cases, we conclude “I learnt something from it.”


My best friend Sangi has taught me lots many things. Relation with her is something different, physically we are very far but miles have never affected our feelings. We have kept us alive by giggling on those sweet memories of life. Our fights in childhood can never be forgotten. Its how two most hatred enemies become BEST FRIENDS, makes our relation remarkably special. I never need to say that I need you Sangi because she always remained with me. She always listen me patiently and more than my words she understands my silence. She always knows what I am going through, what I am thinking and what I want to do. My life is open book to her and she has read all the pages carefully and many times answered the WH questions of those torn-new pages.
After leaving so called high profile job and especially by not accepting the transfer I am having difficult time as far as financial matter is concerned. One day I got a call from Sangi as always we had long talks, I explained how I was upset on little piece of cloth. I liked one skirt. I always bought what I liked. I never restrained my life from the things which I like. I indulge in my wishes and enjoy material aspects with spiritual aspects of life. But that skirt is where my eyes were stuck on but spending of Rs. 500 is what my bank account would cry on. So I kept my eyes on other things which I didn’t like and I didn’t buy anything. But this is not my attitude, once I like something I want to have it anyhow. I wanted to look gorgeous on that skirt. But Books of my studies are so costly that I had no option than to left thinking of that one meter cloth. I washed out my feelings to Sangi and she simply taught me how to control feelings in such situation. She said see you have enjoyed everything and you have everything but in life self discipline is very important how one small thing can trap your attention, be free from everything and don’t get trapped in something which will bide you. I got her words and understood.

She told me about her situation what she is going through. I understand how she is struggling in London; it’s not easy to conquer the battle on alien’s land. But there is a huge gap between understanding and experiencing. When she said “I have only 15 bucks in my account” and other related things. It cut my throat and words could not come out. I felt terrible insecurity for her and wish I could be there with her.
On my birthday I got a call from her and she said she wanted to buy a handbag for me. First I said NO but she convinced me. She enjoys in giving. Since my childhood I have seen she feels happy when she gives something to someone. Once she said it’s very easy to give gifts but true gifting is when you give someone your favorite things. I cultivated Giving Habit from her. She is truly fabulous person and I am lucky to be her friend. This is not about the material things. Material things have nill importance in relations but this is something about how to share our precious things with our loved ones.
