#52WoG: Express Gratitude to 3 People #Sameer


Just 3 people? That was my first reaction when I read the subject for the week. Simply because there are many people I am thankful for, each one for a reason of their own. Some of them have been covered in my earlier posts as well. But since the title says 3, I am simply going to list the first three that come to my mind.

My mom – Now this one is pretty obvious. If there is someone to whom I owe my entire existence, that person is going to figure at the top of any damn list. Mom, I am thankful to you for all that you have given me, making my life easier, and all that you have not given me, teaching me how to be patient and wait to get my due. You are all that I could have wished for, and more. :)

Bunny – This is what I used to call my ex. The reason she finds a place here is because she was the first girl ever to tell me that she loved me and wanted to spend her life with me. More than anything else, she was the one who gave me the confidence that I was worth enough for someone to want to spend their life with. Though you are no longer a part of my life, you will always continue to hold a special place of your own in it.

My college friends – Yes, I am mentioning them as a bunch here because, they were collectively responsible for making the dreaded engineering college days one of the most cherished ones. We went through highs and lows together, the crushing defeats and the exhilarating joys. Those were the days when wide-eyed naivety mixed well with newfound cynicism and a persistent optimism. We all emerged a lot stronger and wiser, and I have you guys to thank for that.
