Best of Five

Ending the weekend with a difficult conversation is never easy.

As I lay in bed listening to the rustling leaves and traffic sounds I could not help but think about the things in life that have always been difficult for me. So difficult that even on my best days ..they have seemed to get the better out of me. Then I prioritized them and got down with the two that really mattered.

Glad I did an MBA ..atleast I can count now.

Topping that list were "Finding Love" and "Finding my career calling".

But then again - sweet optimism won over and I found myself thinking of all the things that did come very easily to me. And top of that prioritized list were "Finding the right words to express my feelings" ; "Good Friendships that have lasted many years and many miles" ; "The fact that I always end up being happy and intensely in love with life"

And as I lay there in bed, this very cloudy September night in Bombay ..with only the fleeting weekend to keep me company, still recovering from my most recent disappointment, my cheeks still wet with tears of frustration and despair ... I realised that Three out of Five was pretty darn good. It was infact - The Best of Five.

Thank God I have enough.
