A "wassup" ping from a long lost friend on a sad day...a surprise bday party the year you had to work late on your birthday...or some unexpected shared chocolate after a long day...
There is no bigger mood brightener than a pleasant surprise !!!
It cuts you out and moves you elsewhere...like a shift of frame...to a lighter,sunnier place..
Where you would'nt have asked anything from the moment...where you couldn't have demanded more from the moment...
A gift you dint know you wanted..but which got you all that you needed...
The aftereffects are tough to relish for all those who are not a part of the picture : a big goofy grin that refuses to go away, heart filled with light which refuses to be diminished...a lighter step,a bolder voice and easy laughter...
Some more restrained of us keep it in our hearts, go about our daily businesses , only to relive such incidents during moments of privacy or suddenly during spells of tedium...just a quick smile..some recollection..a happier heart nonetheless..
and they spread...when you tip the waiter an extra 10/-...when you smile at the auto driver who wants the extra 10/-..and when all your goofy grins bring back an answering smile wherever they are spotted..
These are the memories that stay together. .even when the people in them dont ...through distances...through time...
Cheers to those who care enough and choose to give , regardless !!
