" Honey, we failed."said Mr. Mathur in a depressed tone.

Mrs. Mathur simply nodded her head and didn't even bother to look behind and face her hubby. She was way more engrossed into something that lay in front of her eyes.

" In the amidst of creating a pitch perfect family portrait we failed to realize that to gain some we always need to lose some and in this case the thing which we were losing was more priceless than that which we were so desperately trying to gain!" she said.

Mr. Mathur came silently walking from behind and and gently put his comforting hand onto her shoulder.
" We used to get small signals of the change that knocked our doorstep, but we were so caught up in our own pool of ambitions and desires that even those signals went unnoticed. I don't know whom she used to consider her bffs but honey we were certainly not even at the bottom of the list! I mean just see the irony of life, we were not bothered to care what we were losing and when we actually did, even He didn't seem bothered to give us at least a last chance for winning!" said Mr. Mathur with a sigh of grief.

" We wish you could listen to us saying this sweetheart that,
We really love you and we really miss you!"said the both of them with uncontrollable tears that poured out of their eyes seeing the picture of a smiling Mira on the wall in the front.

.............................................................

They say life changes every minute, it's upon us to adapt to the change but what if life takes a complete 360° change, is it that easy for us to adapt to it?
Well in Mira's case it was not just a change it was like a U turn where life demanded her to go back and start afresh.

Mira is nobody out of the box, she is like any normal girl, someone like you someone like me. When you are alone, you can immediately beg for company and come out of the situation.

But there are times when you feel lonely. Like in Mira's story; your parents may not be giving you "that time" which you expect them to give, they may not be involving themselves much into your daily routine, more than what you feel or what you like, their feelings, their status or their reputation might be a priority but do not forget guys at the end of the day they are your parents. They may not be your friends, but that certainly doesn't mean that they are your enemies.

Even your friends, your besties may be a bit annoying at times, may keep on blabbering about things that you don't even give a fuck about but again with the setting sun, the only fact that remains behind is that they are your friends. Relationship or no relationship that is personal choice but if your friends keep on blabbering about such stuff it's best you take it from one ear and leave from the other, at least by doing this you don't offend them in any way. And God knows, maybe when that same friend may prove his worth to you.

Mira was distraught with almost every possible relationship that she was into. But then she didn't let any of it out. The pain and the frustration kept on clogging in her mind which finally showed it's effect. The time when she needed somebody the most, people around her didn't even bother and were busy in playing the blame game. But when somebody actually went ahead to lend her a helping hand, it was too late, the train had already derailed!

Frustration, depression, loneliness any of this may come your way at some stage in life, but the only way to come out of this and emerge as a winner is being your own friend!
Before looking out for anybody else, talk it out to yourself first. The best cure for you is nobody else but you first!

Cheers.

Stay blessed.
