Contemplations and Ruminations

The day was going really bad, just when I was about to lose my grip on reality .... God sent Binu. That boy has got me, he's a new kid in school .... He, my Redeemer, is amazing, always watching out for me like no other .....

They are the best kind of angels. They can be rude and brutally forthright. But there comes a time when they surprise you .... with the little things they do. They hardly realise what they have done, and that way it means even more because it was unintentional, done at the spur of the moment, comes from somewhere deep inside them. There are many folks out there, with bright shining halo's and they are good at sympathising with you and giving you all kinds of advice .... and people in turn keep polishing their halo's even more. But they are so unreal compared to the other kind. The Haloless angels, really care about you and they know that you are gonna make it through ...

Me, Cheryl and Priyanka were discussing stuff last night... how things keep changing and how life was back then when we were small. Eventually we got to talkin about boys ...

And he was like when will she get back, he wanted nam to call me on the phone .... he kept asking why I went. Isn't that really sweet... went to his house, before I left for bangalore, but he had gone to this prayer meeting with his mom. He's a lively guy, must be about 14 or 15 years old, and he lives near by. So we usually wait at the same spot for the school bus. One day somethin had bitten him down there, in his butt, and it was paining him. He pointed to his butt and and screwed up his face, indicating pain. I asked what happened ... and I could hardly believe what he did next. He was like wait I will show you ... and he sets his bag down, and starts to unbutton his pant.
