A love letter from a friend :)

Alright  I think this has been the longest I have been away from my blog , and I would have continued the break had it not been this one little surprise that awaited me when I got back home after a packed schedule , filled with travel , fun and family times .

Today is my daughter’s 4th birthday and hence a day filled with surprises for her . But the celebrations this year were kick started with a visit to a home for old , mentally challenged , orphans and even cancer patients . But I shall write an elaborate post about that visit soon , in another post , as and when I shall find time , now that my better half is here !

But today’s post is not about my daughter or her surprises , it is about a surprise I received as soon as I stepped foot into my home . A letter , from a sweet blogger friend , Nisha of  , A wandering story teller , that has made my already special valentine’s even more special .

The ‘special’ letter from an extremely thoughtful blogger friend 🙂 I loved the care with which it was written , and tied together using the blue ribbons ! Speaks volumes about the writer 😀

It was with great difficulty that A wandering story teller managed  write and  post them and while I was still travelling I did get an intimation from her for the fact that the letter will probably have to be collected from a certain point…

But so much was happening in my life since then , including a very special valentine holiday along with my husband and daughter , that somehow , the letter thing slipped my mind completely , which is why when I saw it waiting for me on my table (where my father had left it for me ) , I was surprised and excited !

But it was the words in the letter that truly made my  day .

Nisha , I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this wonderful gesture , and that too for a complete stranger ! What you wrote in there , brought tears to my heart and motivated me to write more and stay focused ! But let me tell you , army life isn’t all about separations ! We have peace postings too …so it is not a bad idea to get hitched to an army guy 😛

In this present world , where everyone is in a tearing hurry to go about their work , with no time left for even close relatives and family , this young girl has proved that there is still some love left in the world . Her selfless act of going through this whole ordeal just to see a few smiling faces , will definitely take her a long way in life !

I do have the urge to write an equally long , sweet letter addressed to you as well , but I have my hands full right now , although I will certainly try and do it , as and when possible !

Thank you so much , you did not just bring a smile , you brought out tears of joy and loads of laughter too !!! 

Cheers…may you keep spreading more joy and smiles in this world through your kind gestures …

Hope you had a great Valentine’s day too 😀
