That which maketh my day!

Warning : Boring, non-humorous, personal post ahead

I’m having a wonderful day. It was a pretty nice day to start off with. Things went well, often making me happy.

But they say no day is complete without a few tears (may be, or may be not, of sadness). Interestingly enough, there were a couple of tears in my day today, which made the day complete. And in fact, made the day special.

Throughout this month, I’ve been receiving “Testimonials” on this social networking site called Orkut(owned by the omniscient Google). Testimonials are sort of “friend recommendations”. Yeah, sad, I know. But its all part of the online Social Web 2.0 fun. Anyway, coming back to the point, it was interesting to note how I had been a member of Orkut for around 4 years now, but received my first proper testimonial a couple of weeks back, and suddenly, two more followed. It was like the testimonial month!

And yes, you might have guessed already, I felt very special today because I received a testimonial. No, I didn’t feel special when I received the earlier two. I felt special because this was a very special testimonial from a very special friend…

That which maketh my day!

This friend cannot type on a keyboard. He is not physically fit to do so. He painstakingly typed in each alphabet using the on-screen keyboard, moving the mouse with much difficulty. And he did it all for me. And the words he wrote there, he really meant it.

I just realised how much I missed him, and how much he cared for me. Betwixt all those testimonials, those worthless forwards and declaration of faiths, those artificially induced messages, these two lines written by him looks so pristine, so wonderful, so beautiful, so powerful!

Dear A (no, not the A I referred to in my previous posts), I know you’ll never read this, but I just wanted to tell you, tell someone, that you are one of my really good friends! I will always be there for you! You’re in my heart, and you shall remain to be!

Thank you! You made my day! And possibly, my week! I feel so much energy, that I’m sure I’ll radiate it throughout the week! And I shall definitely see you before the week is out! I shall! I promise I shall!

You made my day!
