Kanna - Read The Bday Wish Today!!




All I can write for a wish - Thank You. It means a lot to kanna, and will always!


Well, FB is strange as it sends a wish I waited the whole day to my 'others folder'. I just saw the 'others folder' as there were two messages. If 1000 people wish us and one person does not wish us - people like me wait for that one wish over the 1000 wishes. I guess all of us are like that. I hardly check my 'others' folder. So many messages come in a day and I hate to check them. I wish I would have checked it on my birthday. I thought my friend forgot my birthday. I thought deep inside that I invested in a wrong friend. Worse, I could not share with anyone how I felt the whole day. It happens ....you deserve too much from life, at times. I kept questioning - how can my friend forget my birthday and did all my calculations...blah blah....human nature...(:...But I assumed 'All is only for good - just to convince myself or the silly mind'.

But does that really matter. When you think of a friend every day, it does not matter. When you love your friend every day, it does not matter. And if you miss them every day, it does not matter whether they wished on your bday or not. But the fact remains - we still wait for that one wish!!!

It was a moonless night on my birthday. I could not talk to the moon about how I felt. At times, the moon helps me to answer my questions.

I also waited. All I can write for a wish - Thank You. It means a lot to kanna, and will always!

Hope my friend reads this as my friend never visits my blog. My friend does not even know I write a message on his/her birthday every August and push it to drafts before the next day starts. Maybe, some day my friend will visit my blog. And I will continue to write that one birthday message every year - as I feel true wishes reach our loved ones. Too late or may be never - I really don't know!!

Peace, Kanna!!
