Seven Sisters

They say life is hard. I say maybe not so much when you are surrounded by good friends. I met some great friends, when I was least expecting it, in a corporate setting.

I was a skeptic, a cynic to be more dramatic. They were genuine, never envious and ever welcoming. My constant companions for four years.

We bonded over common interests.. We shared our art, paintings, food, poems, songs, crafts and writings with each other.

I would rarely but surely go to them to bitch about someone who pissed me off  or to complain about the never ending worries of a corporate employee.

They would wait patiently until I finished my amusement park rides, even though they didn't want to get on the rides themselves.

I remember the 'This or That' game we used to play in break time, watching flock of birds flying in wonderful formations from the food court, the double rainbows we witnessed.. 

Cruising the city, attending food festivals, our evening walks around the campus.

With time , we knew we had to go our separate ways. Just when we were wondering where and how, the pandemic took care of it, which in hindsight was a good thing, because change is the only way.. Now its great to see all of us seizing new opportunities and moving forward. 


Thank you my sisters for your friendship, for listening to my bak bak, for bearing with my hangry avatar. Thank you for your stimulating company...

 I wish you all great success and happiness. we will meet again and make many more memories..

Until then....

To new friendships..
