When you really really want something, like its said in Alchemist, the whole world conspires with you in achieving it...
Mom and I had been shopping for clothes for my mamis, as Diwali gifts. There I loved a dress material....orange and blue. These days I have taken a fancy for bright and contrasting clothes and loved the piece immediately. Didn't buy it. Not that it was too expensive but since I have many dress materials still waiting to visit the tailor I kept it aside. And the next day at mami's place, I get a similar dress...as a Bhau Beej gift!! Same shades of bright orange and turquoise blue......
Mom and I were dying to shop for a beautiful chandelier for our new home, mom more than me. But we never managed the time to go shopping for one. And one fine day, a friend of mom's from her old college, who has been working in Dubai for the past 2 years...whom mom has helped in her own small way comes to mom and tells her that he has gotten a chandelier for her...as a gift for the new home. He and his family came here some hours back, and we just finished assembling it. It should be on the ceiling by tomorrow.....shall post the photos if I take them.....
Happy Diwali. That's a nice story. Now I wonder if I'll get what I want...

ReplyDeleteThe Alchemist got it right, strange are the ways of the world indeed, and stranger still the role of humans.
