Today i actually realised the meaning of "laughing on the past"...
I was speakin to a friend bout an old blog of mine...was too bored to fish out a particular post n so gave him the link instead....n tht was whn i actually checked on "reality sucks" wch was dead n buried a long long time ago...
Was casually browsing through my posts of yester yrs whn some of thm really managed to get me smiling n even laughing...tht set me wonderin if it wud be the same with "nostalgic moments" someday...
I found some posts rather silly, some were plain foolish and some were the " Gawd!! how could i write this" kinda posts...all in all i realised one thing---ive grown up...finally!!
"Reality sucks" was life through the eyes of a naive fool who was juss outta her teens but who still hadent left her world of dreams...i guess comin to terms with reality was a lot more tougher thn :)
Some posts really made me awe at their stupidity, their dumbness n yet again thr were some wch impressed me wth their innocence..
"REALITY SUCKS"brought back a lot of old memories...teenage vulerabilities, a stupid "il'l never let him know" crush, a "rebel without a reason" attitude, crazy friendships, lotsa fun times together---a record of everythin :)
Needless to say thr were some memories, some moments which need not be brought back...because they r always thr.They need no remindin ...perhaps because they r never forgotten...they r juss engraved in ur heart, etched in ur memory...so tht they never leave u .n for all the rest thr was "reality sucks".
and to think i'd almost deleted this blog...but thanks to a friend back thn, who helped me get it all back and alive...n now, thanks to this other friend tht i got bout reading it after sucha long time :)
I've heard of memories wch bring a tear to the eye ...n ive heard of those wch bring a smile to the lips...
but today it was a moment wch brought a tear to my eye and a grin to my face at exactly the same time.

Strange is nostalgia! Stranger is LIFE!!
sigh! guess i still need to grow up (probably till i dont find things strange anymore)

// "and to think i'd almost deleted this blog...but thanks to a friend back thn "

'thank you' is one thing which shud never be made to wait, if its a genuine feeling.
but more than that is the fact that some ppl sometimes need only appreciation for who they are - no acclaims, no accolades - nothing but only a heartfelt talk!


PS: imho reality is lovely! "welcome to the real world!" packs so much punch!

I look at every post and say "sheesh, how'd I write this!" But, I still post it 'cuz, this seems to be onw way to "make" memories, and some save up as nostalgic moments. :)

Happy New Year pal!
