Celebration of Life

This is an advertisement I came across in today's newspaper . What does it cost to have a celebration?

A Winter Evening .
Four Friends .
One Barsaati.
Four Glasses of Chai.

Hundred Bucks of gas.
A Rusty Old Bike.
And an open Road .

Maggi Noodles
A Hostel Room
4.25 am

3 Old Friends
3 separate cities .
3 Coffee mugs .
1 Indiatimes messenger.

Rain on a hot tin roof.
Pakoras Deep Frying.
Neighbours dropping in.
An Impromptu party.

You and Mom.
A Summer night.
A bottle of coconut oil.
A head massage.
Gossiping about absent family members.

You can spend hundreds on birthdays
Thousands on festivals
Laks on weddings ..
but to celebrate all you have to spend is your time .
